OKAY SO IM HAVING MY LITTLE RANT HERE. WHY YOU
ASK? COZ IM FUCKIN PISSED OFF - THATS WHY!!! THE ONE THING I LOVE THE MOST, IS THE SAME THING THAT PUSHES ME TO THE
BRINK OF DETESTATION AND THAT THING IS PUNKS. TOO MANY OF YOU ARE SO BUSY ANALYSING EVERY FUCKIN MOVE YOU, AND EVERYONE
ELSE ON THIS FUCKED UP PLANET MAKES, TO SEPERATE THE PUNKS FROM THE POSEURS. BUT YOU'RE NOT A POSEUR ARE YOU. NOOOOO
OFCOURSE NOT. YOU'RE TOO PUNK! YOU'VE GOT ENOUGH STUDS AND SPIKES TO MAKE JORGE WEEP. YOU DON'T HAVE A JOB,
YOUR PENSION'S SPENT ON BEER THAT'S SO CHEAP IN THE FIRST PLACE SO YOU CAN GET WASTED IN PUBLIC VACINITIES MORE OFTEN, YOUR
CLOTHES STINK, YOUR MOHAWK IS CAREFULLY SPIKED TO PERFECTION BY MUMMY DEAREST WHO SUPPORTS YOUR LATEST 'TREND' AND YOU EMBRACE
THE PADLOCK AROUND YOUR NECK TO COMMEMORATE A GUY THAT COULDN'T PLAY A FUCKING NOTE, AND WAS TOO COMATOSE ON COCAIN OR ELBOW
DEEP UP THE UGLIEST WHORE OF A CANINE'S CHLAMIDIA, THE 'ANARCHY OF THE UK' HAS EVER SEEN; TO ACTUALLY MAKE AN EFFORT TO PLAY
SOME GOOD MUSIC. THEN YOU GO TO A SHOW. YOU HAVE A BIT OF A MOSH JUST TO PROVE HOW HARDCORE YOU ARE - THAT IS
UNTIL A CROWD SURFER POSES A THREAT TO YOUR PRECIOUS MOHICAN THEME AND YOU WANDER TO THE BACK WITH YOUR BEER AND SPEND THE
REST OF THE NIGHT BAGGING OUT EVERYONE ABOUT HOW POSEUR THEY ARE. SO NOW THAT YOU HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED, ALL I'VE GOT
TO SAY IS FUCK YOU !!! WHO SERIOUSLY GIVES A FUCK?! WHEN YOU TURN UP TO A SHOW, YOU'RE THERE TO APPRECIATE
AND SUPPORT THE FUCKIN MUSIC! NOT TO
A) DRAW ATTENTION TO YOURSELF IN THE PIT
B) BAG OUT EVERYONE IN AN ATTEMPT TO BE 'HARDCORE'
C) PICK UP
D) HANG OUT WITH YOUR MASSIVE SOCIAL GROUP, TRIPPING
ON YOUR EGO THAT SCREAMS HOW COOL YOU ARE TO BE AT A PUNK SHOW *OH MY GOD!!*
YOU WANNA KNOW ANOTHER THING THAT PISSES ME OFF?
GO TO YOUR NEXT PUNK SHOW AND TAKE A LOOK AROUND. I GUARANTEE YOU WILL FIND AN UNSETTLING POPULATION OF BRAIN DEAD TEENAGERS
(MALE AND FEMALE ALIKE) WHO HAVE JUST SPENT 3 HOURS LOCKED IN THEIR BATHROOMS, PERFECTING THEIR PRETTY HAIRSTYLES, APPLYING
THE PATHETIC 'ALTERNATIVE' MAKEUP, AND INCREASING THE RISK OF PREMATURE ATHRITIS, BY APPLYING SO MANY DAMN COLOURFUL BEADS/PINS/BRACLETS/JUNK
JEWELERY, ON THEIR ARMS/NECKS/ANKLES/CLOTHES/BACKPACKS. SINCE WHEN WAS PUNK ABOUT BEING PRETTY?!?! NO WONDER I FEEL LOST THESE
DAYS! ANYWAYS, ALL IM SAYING IS STOP TRYING SO FUCKING HARD. PUNK IS A WAY OF LIFE. A LIFESTYLE, A MEANING, AND A PASSION
WITH THE BEST FUCKIN SOUNDTRACK TO EVER BLOW YOUR BRAINS OUT. IT SHOULDN'T BE AN EFFORT. IT SHOULD COME FROM THE
HEART AND MEAN SOMETHING TO YOU. THATS EXACTLY WHAT THE MUSIC IS ABOUT, SO DON'T LET THEIR MESSAGE BE FUTILE.
IF SOME KID TURNS UP TO AN IRRELEVANT GIG WITH A FRICKIN BLINK 182 SHIRT ON, CUT HIM SOME SLACK. WE'VE ALL GOT OUR FAULTS.
AT LEAST BE SATISFIED HE'S TAKEN AN INTEREST IN SOME GOOD MUSIC. AND BITE YOUR TONGUE BEFORE SOMEONE REMINDS YOU OF
YOUR OLD DAYS AS A GREENDAY FAN - DONT DENY IT! IM NOT SOME LAME ARSE HIPPY TRYING TO MAKE A LITTLE PEACE IN THE SCENE.
GOD KNOWS I ADMIRE THE ANARCHISTS (EVEN THOUGH I THINK YOU'RE WASTING YOUR TIME), AND IM SURE AS HELL NOT TRYING TO DEFINE
PUNK OR ATTACK POSEURS FOR A MORE 'ELITE' SCENE. WE'RE ALL FUCKIN POSEURS AND YOU KNOW IT. ALL IM SAYING IS STOP
TAKING YOURSELVES SO FUCKIN SERIOUSLY. YOU'RE ONLY MAKING FOOLS OF YOURSELVES.
