I moved to Toledo, Ohio, in
1981. And this is straight up, most kids here had never heard of punk rock. Some
had read bits in the newspaper and would comment with some humor. But
the world was a much bigger place.
Back then, I would run out to NY
City every chance I could, for a dose of 3 chord energy. The Cleveland
Agora would get a few bands passing through, but only a handful of
enthusiasts would attend. The Lords of the New Church sometime in October 1982 about
100 people on a Wed night. Later, The Pistols at the Flats August 13th
1996 on the Nautica stage. The venue was no where near sold out. By the
way, both concerts were classic.
Punk rock fires up where it is
needed, where it is required, and then it moves on to fix another
social blemish. Punk rock is a living entity that avoids
commercialization, but when it is spotted, the wagoneers will try to
capitalize on it, as it leaves through the back door, to relocate
somewhere else in the world far away. Hence the "Punks not dead" slogan
that has now circulated for about 30 years.
I agree, in the UK, some of
the "76 punk" was about fashion, but the culprit, was one
street in London, The Kings Road, an amazing place at the time. Youths
and musicians from all over world were drawn to that street with a
strong curiosity. The street was wealthy at one end and dirt poor on
the other.
Europeans and Americans would come and stay illegally to work the fashion
stores, bars and boutiques, just to be involved with the vibrant
scene. But punk moved on quickly, to find places like Liverpool,
Manchester, Glasgow and Ulster where violence and unemployment ruled
the streets. There was no money for "up-market Chelsea"
punk clothing here. Kids in these cities would steal clothes from thrift
stores or army stores and try to create something different with safety pins, spray
paint and dye. The Pistols had already split, and the Clash were
considered sell outs, when the scene was fixing other social
disasters during 78.
And so it goes, "Punks Not Dead, it is still a
Juvenile". And finding it's new location, before big biz arrives will be
an ongoing adventure for all of the people that need a fix of it's
raw energy.
Thanks Mart

So yeah like I said the Germs, X, Weirdoes, The Screamers, Bags,
Dickies, Controlers, I loved the Avengers and the Zeros!!! etc. And it
is interesting that many of these bands as well as bands like Devo,
Blondie and even the Ramones had a little art school/glam damage in
their roots, so I had a natural attraction to them. I don't remember
there being any unifying dogma or mantra to "save the world" or "smash
the state" with these bands. It was just Argh I'm fcked up with nuthin
ta do so lets go crazy, but you know not in some backwoods hillbilly
psycho way or some suburban jock rock way, there was something far more
creative at play.

In 1977 we started the band.
We played every where the Punks hung out in the Southend/Essex area.
Youth clubs, a school, pubs, clubs. There were a lot of gigs, no money or just a couple of pounds. We got a great reaction from everyone. That first gig was scary, cos there were loads of people, but not our usual school mates. This was a proper crowd, a few down the front instantly
started moving, so we were doing something right.
Loads of tension, loads of violence from bikers , teddy boys, football thugs.
It all added to the determination of us to play! We played one gig straight after I had been beat up by 3 bikers. It was the normal every week happening. To Find out more about the Spurts Click Here Follow Link

The UK's love of expression and their freedom to innovate, has helped them produce many unique rockers. The Skunks could be characterized this way. They were part of the original core of 77 rockers that formulated the recipe for British punk music. Nobody will argue about that. With a distinguished bass line that fueled a more complex result, The Skunks have their own punk sound. And their original compositions are just as refreshing today. More at Bombsite Fanzine
