I've already got the structure and most of my argument planned out in my head, I just need to find resources to cite.

Chavs are those white trash ones with babys at 16years of age and.....sportswear?

Yes, track suits! Those are the ones! Do you have people like that in Sweden? What do you call them?   :orly:

Hm...we call them white trash, as far as I know...tracksuits are seldom seen in Stockholm nowadays though. Maybe some hiphop-variation.

Raggare, as TheoK mentioned are basically a mix between rockabillys and hillbillies. A subculture of their own, mostly seen in the rural areas of Sweden.

"White trash" is a popular term over here too. It's interesting to hear how other countries describe their subcultures.  :chin:

I'm trying to think of a typical Swedish subculture, but I don't think there is one...

Congrats. What's the proposal about?

Thanks.
It's on the topic of authenticity in music; specifically, whether a complete unambiguous notation system would be possible, if so, would it be desirable?

That sounds so awesomely out of sight.  I wouldn't even dream that that could be a subject to discuss.  Bravo.

 :agreed:   It's over my head, but I can understand just enough to agree that it will make a fascinating subject!

I'd be very interested in further details once you have some.

That sounds like it's going to be a very interesting topic, PSP.
