[kj] worst ever poll

[Rob's Arse]

Oh no!

He's gone over the the "other" side.

Damn.

Alex in NYC will never let us forget this.

Chris, you have to stop. It's unprecidented that a Frenchman starts siding with an American!

If, somehow, anyone cans say that The Clash or the Sex Pistols or the Damned 
did not start AFTER seeing the Ramones on their first tour oversees then 
they are in heavy fucking denial.  Everyone in those bands have said that 
they started their bands after seeing that tour.  Punk referenced the MC5, 
the Stooges, NY Dolls, etc. in the same way that Rock 'n' Roll referenced 
the early blues.  I guess you could say that the Sex Pistols started the 
whole fashion (nowadays Hot Topic) punk side of things.  And in my opinion 
Sid Vicious should not be a punk icon.  He was a fool that did not have 
enough sense to be a regular rock star.  Johnny Rotten/Lydon is as brilliant 
as he is hypocritical (maybe that is part of it).

Please Kill Me is quite a good punk.  Even if you do not care about punk.  
There have been numerous repressings and revisions/additions.
