The Conservative Impulse of Punk

"i will restore wrongs because these laughs are all terribly ordered"

techno has resulted in more lame "culture-jamming" than any DK albums ever!!

Tracer your view of punk is a bit too "there's no such word as can't" for me. Or "Feel The Fear And Do It Anyway"!

I'm reminded of the Venn Diagram Mark S reprints in his 'Concrete' essay - here are the punks and here are the non-punks and here are the people who don't fit into either. The reading is that those people are sympathetic but I think they can be sympathetic and also frightened and miserable and disappointed.

hey i just got in touch with colette (of venn diagram fame)!! she is a grown-up with a propah job!!

i suppose this is hardly earth-shaking news but it just goes to show: when is jello biafra going to get a propah job, eh? (i haf still not forgiven him for "too drunk to fuck", i paid GOOD MONEY FOR THAT you laYMoR)

Well I like the DKs. I just think Jello's views on not-punk music, when not pertaining to the censorship thereof, are kind of weird. Like dig when they came out with "Triumph of the Swill" on Bedtime For Democracy they mocked hair-metal pretty severely, but then Dee Snider gets called into the PMRC trials and all of a sudden Biafra has to side with him as an anti-censorship crusader or something. Weird how that happens.

Well, I think Biafra will happily ally himself with anyone who is anti-censorship...but that doesn't mean he has to like their music.
"The enemy of my enemy is my friend" as the Moslems are fond of saying.
