[catzies]

[benburch]

1. Joan Jett

[Whitacre D_WI]

2. Here goes:

[jpgray]

3. Here's one of mine, with yours in the audience. :-)

[Whitacre D_WI]

12. I thought about him...

...but MES goes beyond "punker" for me. More like a "rakish, drunken, priapetic agit-poet."

I just love that picture of Darby, so I had to post it.

[Wickerman]

4. Here she is - post punk

[rumguy]

5. Patti Smith

Here she is with Bobby D...

[jpgray]

6. One of my other favorites was quite familiar with her

But he sho is ugly.

[tigereye]

13. looks like Tom Verlaine, right?

that is actually a nice pic of him.

[Whitacre D_WI]

17. Verlaine is way ugly.

But he sho can play that axe!

[jpgray]

21. I must admit, I am jealous of his gimmicky transparent guitar

[Whitacre D_WI]

22. Personally, I am more jealous of his talent.

[jpgray]

23. I like to envy something that is feasible for me to acquire.

:D

[Whitacre D_WI]

24. I don't envy that which is acquirable.

I buy them. If I can't afford them -- then I can't very well feasibly acquire them, can I? ;)

[jpgray]

30. Hell, I wasn't even sure 'feasibly' was a word

:dunce:

(it didn't sound right somehow!)

[tigereye]

35. so it doesn't really matter

I don't think he's that ugly. There are many more ugly than he.

[Whitacre D_WI]

38. You mean like...

[tigereye]

40. pardon my ignorance but

who is he?

and yeah he is pretty unattractive

[Whitacre D_WI]

45. Well, you may not know Lemmy, since Motorhead isn't strictly PUNK...

...but they sure is LOUD!!! :D

[tigereye]

49. i thought it might be him

since you have spoken of his ugliness before. But I don't know much about them.

[Whitacre D_WI]

50. Oh, I had to PM you on that, buddy.

:hi:

[tigereye]

9. I love that picture of her!

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

7. patti smith

[tigereye]

16. she looks good with silver hair, too

that is more silver than the last time I say her. GOod for her!

[Beware the Beast Man]

8. One of the originals...

Rest In Peace.

[tigereye]

18. awww Joey

I am reading a recent bio of the Ramones. It is really good and he was so sweet. Sigh. And various other goons are still breathing. Life ain't fair. I love his posthumous album, it always makes me cry, esp. the cover of What a Wonderful World.

[Beware the Beast Man]

32. Yeah,

And that wingnut Johnny is still kickin'...:(

[tigereye]

34. yeah all business that guy

he used to fine every one if they were drinking or whatever on tour. Guess that's how they lasted so long!

[quispquake]

10. I have to agree with Jello Biafra

I saw the Dead Kennedys back in '81, and it changed my life (Really!!!). Jello's been a personal hero ever since...and I LOVE his spoken word albums too...

[name not needed]

11. another vote for jello

[Mojambo]

14. Shattuck

[Paragon]

15. Avril Lavinge

Kidding. :silly:

[tigereye]

19. I was gonna say

although at least she doesn't sex herself up like some of those other ones...

[tigereye]

31. wow toss up

Have to be Joe Strummer

http://www.punk77.co.uk/groups/clash.htm

oh well can't get the picture into the post.

but Joey and Patti are pretty close.

[Whitacre D_WI]

20. Keeping in mind Abigail Adams' request to "remember the ladies..."

[tigereye]

37. Exene!

and Lydia?

[Whitacre D_WI]

39. And Fay Fife.

Yup.

[catzies]

51. Exene is a Living Goddess who Walks Among Us

I mean, she had John Doe AND Viggo Mortensen.

Damn.

edit 4 tequila spelling

[mitchum]

25. Richard Hell

[rumguy]

27. You're Richard Hell

[Whitacre D_WI]

28. What, no pic?

[mitchum]

42. Only because I couldn't find a copy of the "Theresa Stern" pic

:)

[Rick Myers]

26. Stiv Bator

The only REAL punk is a DEAD BOY!!!

(And to top it off, he was my cousin!)

[Whitacre D_WI]

33. Stiv Bators was your cousin?

No way!

[rucky]

29. Exene

[jpgray]

36. Not at all Wendy's-related, to my knowledge, though he may be a big fan

[Whitacre D_WI]

41. At least from '76 through about '80.

David didn't have the most "consistent" career thereafter.

But I sure loves me some RFTT and early Ubu! :bounce:

edit: typo

[tigereye]

43. I saw one of his post Ubu bands

can't remember the name. My husb. has some Rocket From the Tombs, it sounded pretty good. We wore the groves out of The Modern DAnce though.

[Whitacre D_WI]

44. Here's some love for Rod Bent.

[Pillowbiter]

46. Well, being that there are so many old timers here

I would have to go with Lydia Lunch:



Mainly because she hit on me in a club, and I have a signed shirt to prove it!

But my fave punker nowadays would be Hide (pron. hee-day).



PB

[Whitacre D_WI]

48. LL hit on you?!

Holy crap!

The Teenage Jesus and the Jerks EP is one of my favorite records.

[stimbox]

47. Lee Ving

Fear was one of my favorite hardcore bands.
