Vespa culture and music reggae

         Vespa, two-wheeled vehicles that come from countries Benito Mussolini is indeed unique and have a long history until the vehicle which means "wasp" in Italian is able to penetrate the various state, society, and even to intervene into the culture to create a sub certain -kultur. One example pembaurannya become a part of the sub-culture can be seen from the stigma above "vehicle of the Mods" or bike the skinheads, particularly in the UK in the '60s era. In that era was rife passable encountered the "they" who are often dressed using an aviator-style jacket, with Dr.Martens boots and short hair style (instead tend to be bald) so impressed militant style, though not necessarily all the characteristics they like it, let alone they often drive down the road with a vehicle which is actually the background of the vehicle is actually created by "debt payment solutions," Italian for their defeat in World War II.
               
                                           

         Then what is the correlation between vehicle technology inspired by aircraft technology with Reggae music which is actually identical to the music of the blacks in that era? It is undeniable that the rise of the immigrant blacks were in England at the time, helped bring her music into their association daily, especially to the young even to adults in her home country of The Beatles, The Who, Sham 69, The. While Britain itself (maybe even today) is a trend-setter or a music mecca of the world. Musical tastes immigrant blacks that was apparently quite popular with young children there and even rooted very strongly to penetrate into the environment of the "Mods" which is actually called "Mods" is due to the characteristics of those who tend to be "Modernist", be it in matters of fashion even in terms of music. So do not be surprised if the result of their association with the immigrant blacks, many of the Mods who enjoyed the music is often performed by "The Maytals", "Laurel Aitken", and others that were in that era, so that in the era it was not a foreign sounding terms like Rude boys, Skinhead Reggae, even melegendanya influences of Trojan Records.

         While outside the terms of the music, when the Vespa is one of the favorite vehicles, because besides the price tends to cost and motorcycle technology was adopted from aircraft technology, so do not be surprised if the Vespa tend to be more robust and durable. Even supposedly Vespa during the early days removed from the factory to the market, once Vespa to use aircraft tires chance. Maybe that reason also why the logo is often carried by the Mods is also to use the logo on a British fighter. And the media also helped popularize the uniqueness of the combination of the sub-culture with their distinctive vehicle. But the Vespa is not just an ordinary vehicle.

         Vespa which was known to have a history as a vehicle symbol "payment of sin" due to the severity of the World War, so it is no wonder these vehicles tend to be sold at bargain prices from the country of origin, but now the Vespa has been turned into a symbol of the vehicle which can be regarded as a vehicle meaningful "solideritas" , This fact can sometimes be seen from the fraternity solideritas Vespa riders, especially in Indonesia, where if there is breaking down on the road Vespa, Vespa penggendara more happened to be passing and saw the incident will also pause while offering assistance to the rider.

           Such solideritas consciously or unconsciously represents the message "One love" where the difference like the difference of blacks and whites can be lost only by a vehicle called the music. And it all feels more chance, because the common thread among the music with the Vespa vehicle, there is apparently a Reggae share in it.
