To Punk or Not to Punk
PUNK:
· Giving the band “Crass” the finger at a Crass reunion show..how gay for them..
· Having “ANTISOCIAL” tattooed across your forehead
· Fighting and thereby hospitalizing your friend on Tuesday night, hanging out and laughing about the whole thing Wednesday afternoon.
· Sneaking out to see the show at thirteen and not coming home for three more days..if ever.
· Hopping the first train out of there.
· Renting a U-Haul, driving it across country and, obviously, never returning it.
· Starting a zine, running one issue..pretty standard punk rock.
· GG Allin and Iggy Pop
· Being Gay..that’s punk
· Buying a piece of land somewhere in the middle of nowhere, and living off it.
· Not sending your kids to public school, come on people, isn’t that what we hated..
· Being an Artist, musician or whatever the fuck you feel and not workin’ for the man..Soo punk I can barely stand it.
NOT PUNK:
· Yuppie business fucks dressed up as Punk Rockers, I know too many.
· Hot topic, Wal-mart, a few other clothing company’s I know to well.
· Skinheads..rascist or not, it’s just bizarre really. Go Away..
· Being a homophobe
· Not knowing who Motorhead is and then wearing a back patch on your denim jacket the next week.
· Wearing a back patch on your denim jacket.
· Blink 182..although I must say, they do have a few catchy songs, not punk though..
· Growing up Punk and then buying a house in the suburbs..just like Mom and Dad..sorry, doesn’t qualify as punk to me.
WARNING: These are just the opinions of one middle aged punk rocker. They do not represent the views of all, although they should!!
Punks not dead!! It’s just farther underground then most folks can imagine..
Let us know what you think!
