Interesting that the secular culture of punk - inspires a devotee to approach the eosoteric, the realm of religion.
Which is what we were overtly rejecting in the first place - and yet what we were probably craving deep down.
B A Ryan what does this have to do with Religion He's talking about Punk Rock
Metaphysics is the realm of philosophy, as is music, physics, and everything else. I don't see your point.
Punk's Not Dead.

WTF are you talking about ? May I have some of what you are taking ?
the second people try to stop punk rock it Just Gets Bigger and More Harder To Stop
Punk can take it, forever and ever.
I've written to John Robb about 'punk', and it's meaning in 2016. He's a fascinating bloke and open to constructive criticism. Clint, maybe do the same thing as me, the clichéd slogan you've used is stupid and old. 'Top comment'? Why? A song in Bb is a bastard if you're a guitarist. The safety pins and gobbing didn't last long.
My ocd is killing me! Please fix your shirt! Great speech tho!
Don’t watch this hahaha
