on a similar note to the bowie thing i'm not usually a person to call someone a sell out but him performing with the sex pistols at the jubilee took the piss...maybe it was meant to be ironic or something but seems to me that it just proves he's 'subserviant' or whatever to the monarchy in the end and didnt he also recieve an honour recently? i've more respect for bowie though, he's no sting.. |

thing about lydon is, he'll wax lyrical & intellectualise about all sorts of things - but he has a sense of humour.. so in the end he'll take the piss by doing exactly what "johnny rotten" shouldnt do and (more importantly) take the cheque.. why do you think the ill advised pistols reunion gigs were monickerd "the filthy lucre tour" (after a newspaper headline following their interview with bill grundy)? |

who is john lydon |

oke the red head who killed his girl or not? |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
yeah but surely they wanted to be taken seriously at one point and had real political views...that's how they started fair enough stand from a distance and take the piss, but don't say you're at the centre of a movement and then do completely the opposite!? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
nah that's sid vicious |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

How long did 'Punk' last in england acrid? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think punk collapses itself. |
||||||||

well done on using parenthesis jivverdicker.. 'punk' is a nonsense it was meant to be about a diy attitude to music (just like techno & electronica began), about individuality & resentment towards institutionalised ideals.. only it was turned ito a fashion movement. there were punk outfits, punk haircuts etc. which sort of defeats the point of autonomy from any kind of system. it didnt help that most of the bands were more interested in the clothes & the attitude than actually learning to play their instrument or display any kind of innovation/individuality in their music. s'pose thats the great irony. if you get too many people trying to do something 'different', they all end up doing the same thing.. |

and getting their dicks sucked apparently.. and yeah that is a great irony all good things come to a trend according to matt black! |
||||||||

the weird bloke in coldcut? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
he's one half of coldcut...who are quite political they were on newsnight a while back talking about the dangers of clearchannel (an american company) taking over the uk radio stations if you look at the bottom of those big billboards you'll probably see a lot owned by clearchannel |

'punk' the word is soo often used. Presently it means nothing to me. I am 100% DIY. It's not a mohawk, pink dye in your hair or pretend 'IDM'. I release music I want to hear, I play at venues I want to play. I've done this since I was 17 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
of course, coldcut - i knew it rung a bell (as they say) thanks for clearing that up. |
||||||||
|

I was pissed the other night and climbed onto the roof of my house with a mate and it was so calm and nice...but after looking at the height the next day I don't think i'm doing it again (until the next time) (when I break my neck) |

the best 'punk' album (imo) is the vastly underrated and unknown "dirk wears white sox" by a then unkonwn band called adam & thr ants. shortly after this was recorded the drummer, bassist & guitarist were stolen by malcolm maclaren (link!) to form bow wow wow. adam & the ants then reformed and became more pop-oriented. i couldnt recommend this album less. |

D.I.Y. If it rocks, electtro, acoustically, good luck! Keep at it. |
