/looks like this

submitter: fat, bloated anarchists in their fifties look like...

Yup. Wait twenty years and see how fabulous them tats & body-piercings look on ya, Peter Pan Smits.

I was a teenager when "Never Mind the Bullocks" came out. I thought they were interesting then, but I don't think I'd like to see them now.

Punk is for kids who think their music makes a difference in the world.

but but but... Green day started a mud fight at Woodstock

I saw them then. I don't need to see them now.

Newsflash: Most "kids" think whatever music they listen to will change the world. Pretty much goes with the territory.

So pretty much anything that you submit that has to do with the Sex Pistols gets greenlit?

Punk is dead. Tempo and chord progressions to not a movement make.

Do you know what I hate most about punk music? It's f***ing hard to play the drums on Rock Band.

Whine spo-dee-o-dee.

They look pretty much like you will in 30 years, subby.

I saw them in 2003 at the Trump Marina in Atlantic City. It was worth the shock and dismay from the blue haired old farts who mistook it for a Neil Diamond show.

They were sorta like this...

//could replace it though

Archie Godwin: contrived boy band.


Now, now. Don't embarrass yourself. If you're going to make a joke, make it a funny one. You're a clever lad, aren't you? Someone might think you were serious and accuse you of being a fool. Wouldn't want that, would you?

Archie Godwin: contrived boy band.

i was going to say this but who cares. The fact of the matter, be they boy band or not, is that they suck. Lets not get caught up on semantics.

/i would rather listen to green day then the sex pistols.

uh...what?

acurus: Punk is dead. Tempo and chord progressions to not a movement make.

yep, that's all that punk has ever been about, all right.

Okay, this is going to make me seem super lame, and I'm sure I'll lose scene points for saying this, but "Never Mind The Bollocks" changed my life. To this day, after assaulting my eardrums with harsh music from across the spectrum, I still have not heard a person sound more pissed off than John Lydon sounds on that record.

That being said, screw them and all this reunion BS. It spoils the memories I have of that band. I want to remember them as pissed off kids sporting sharp clothing and sharper wits. Now they're all fat miserable old men.


\Saw the Pixies after they reunited. Ruined their music for me.
\\Screw all band reunions.
\\\Except when Big Black, the Monorchid, Killdozer, and Scratch Acid reunited for the Touch & Go 25th Anniversary party. Those were done in tribute to an awesome label, not to cash in on nostalgia.

You're not even trying anymore.

I know it's just a music thread, but at least bring your "B" game.

I think at this point that no one really cares about the Sex Pistols in the same way that no one really cares about most of the acts that played at Woodstock.
