"The hippies failed". "Then, they went and started their careers". "The punks will probably do the same thing". Never were truer words spoken. Most punks I grew up with are financially stable, because, we listened to the music that made us think. We listened to the music that showed us the strings that controlled the system. We were not disillusioned.

95% of the “punks” that I knew had actually come from upper middle class suburbia in a small town called Andover, MA. They were active tourists with a stable background. All they had to do was play the game, and fortunately for them ultimately did. I knew some real deal homeless punks in Boston and Los Angeles.

For someone so young, you can tell that he had a very grounded sense of realism about himself, what he was doing, and what he was, and still is, about. And the mistakes played out. Mistakes that he learmed from until he got it right with Fugazi. And Minor Threat and Embrace were definitely not bands he did wrong.

Also before you or anyone else uses the tired old line about how much time has passed since your comment; I don't care. Just because your post is old doesn't mean it's somehow invulnerable to criticism or discussion. I also would like to take this time to bring up hero worship which is a huge problem not just here in the us but pretty much everywhere in the world. Music kind of takes on a life of its' own and becomes something removed from the individual or individuals that created it. Initially an extension, it then evolves. You don't need to know who wrote or composed a song to listen to it. So in short . . . who gives a fuck who kim gordon is. You can honor her without even knowing her name just by enjoying what she produced or was part of producing.
