    huh, that got me thinking. I did listen to SP and suicidal tendencies some in the years most peeps go for pop. i owned one album each...i tried to travel light...were they my pop? was Friggin in the Riggin and God Bless the Queen my oops i did it again?

    they were fun... but as a live-in-the-head sort, fun didn't go far with me.
    I love the Clash 's Call up, as well, and that seemed serious to me at the time.
    other fun music: Meatloaf/Jim Steinman (but dance in the pants? puhleez)
    metal: Ozzy with Randy, Preist until turbo, Iron Maiden until powerslave that sort/ always hard for me to take it too seriously.
    Still listen to some of Steinman's stuff as Meatloaf and by others.

    i think that anybody who wants to wipe out a whole cultural group is ignorant. besides if you think about it, punk would probably not exist if it wasnt for hippies-hippies where the first to stand up against the system, so jhonny is really contradicting himself, isnt he?

    When things are healthy, one group replaces another. the beats of the fifties were replaced by the freaks of the 60's who were replaced by the hippies who were then replaced by the punks.

    I'd go one further and say that punk and hippies have a lot in common, with regards to questioning and rejecting mainstream mores and if you think about it, the yippies were the punk rockers of the 1960's.

    On the other hand, these days everything is stagnant and conservative now, and we need another youth/counterculture movement to pull us into tomorrow, instead of staring nostolgically at the 60's and 70's.
