not to mention I've met & hung out with all my musical heroes. you can't do that at big shows. nor would I want to; met Eddie VanHalen once & i was blown away by what a dick that dude was. I'll take the company of punks any day over spoiled bitch rockstars.
yah, i've met rollins a couple of times and talked with him a bit about hubert selby jr, the dude that wrote the book requim for a dream which the movie was written about.. rollins is actually who i heard about selby first.. i read that book in the early 90s or so, and it was amazing back then.. rollins was super chill.. i've met ian mackaye as well.. just got to stand around him and say hey and what not, but it was still cool.. the only other celeb i've ever met was woody harelson when i was walking around the village in nyc one time with my ex.. a white dude with a hoody with a bunch of black dudes around him approached us and asked if we knew where any thrift stores were.. we got about ten feet away, and we both looked at each other and were like, was that woody harelson, so of course we went running back and talked to him for a second.. he was pretty chill as well..

mackaye is my fucking idol. that man has such a grip on what music is an what it should be. his inyerview with nardwar on youtube is awsome. thats the kind of dude that lets you know music is still real. fugazi was (is) a perfect example.

yah, i love mackaye and all of his bands, minor threat, egghunt, fugazi, i even like dag nasty that isn't him, but jeff i think from minor threat..
ian's got a great outlook on life and the world in general.. still charges like $10 for shows when every other band charges like over fifty, and he gives every show his all.. i must have seen fugazi atleast five or six times, and every show was amazing.. he really is someone to look up to.. i haven't listened to a fugazi record since maybe the one with long division on it, forget what that one is called, but i should really check out some of his newer shit..
i've sadly gotten away from a lot of this music in the last few years or so, which is why i raelly love this thread as its brought back a lot of good memories and good times from years past.. nowadays i've been listening mostly to shit like john lennon and the beatles as well as a lot of neil young.. fuck, he's playing in arpil in nyc, and i've been trying to find someone to go with, but the tickets are like $300 or so.. neil could really do with a nice talk to ian about his tix prices, lol.. i'm still looking for someone to go, but times running out quickly..

ok ok.. i know that this song isn't punk per se, but you didn't grow up in the 80's and 90's and listen to any kind of alternative music and not like peter murphy and bahaus.. enough said.. he deserves his spot in this thread for that reason imho..

Mudhoney are the best band outta Seattle; period. talk about zero attitude musicians! Steve is from Houston too! how they know about all that obscure Tx punk they love to cover.

and I'll count Ministry as punk; Al's a gnarler, even tho the first album is gay. and Bauhaus are the definition of Goth, but they're still good... I think I need to start a Grunge Song thread, cuz there's too many awesome ones to throw under the punk banner.

haha i hear ya man. it shows goes to show how punk music and the aura around it relates so well with the youth. punk music is so easy to make but you just can't fake it cause than its pure shit and everything it goes against.

Yessssss! My bud would love you for this post hahh lol dopenesss
yah, i love ian curtis and joy division.. such great music that really has some feeling behind it, even if the mood is dark and depressing, it still has good emotion to it, and i love how dark and dreary some of their songs are.. even the love songs are dark and depressing like love will tear us apart, lol..

i just wish that they could have been around for a lot longer then they were and would have been able to drop some more amazing music before ian hung himself.. not the biggest fan of new order who came out of joy division as they are just simply to happy for me.. do love the cure though..
