Yeah, it's good to be interested/involved with politics, but please keep it out of my music! One of the many reason why I can't stand Crass.

I can't listen to any of that early 80's hardcore political punk rock anymore.

Back in the day I used to love it. I have a pile of Aussie punk in the record collection, I used to go to the gigs.  Even filled in on the Punk rock radio show from time to time on 3-PBS-FM from time to time.  Fuck, I even got tattooed by Smeer of Depression.

I don't want to say it but it bores me now. Some of the vinyl has sold for big bucks on eBay (thank you crazy Japanese record collectors). Maybe I will sell it all off, maybe not, I do know I will not be listening to it.

I've never heard a Bob Dylan song...and i don't really care.

Any Birdman-kinda stuff is right up my alley!

And Lightning Bolt is waaay too intense for a measly 2-piece!

And those beautiful Australian ladies, ooh!!

First show was The Blues Magoos at a local high school (NJ) in 1968. Saw them again in Woodstock, NY in 2009. 

Punk? Best? Don't remember, can't say. Grinderman in NY last year? Maybe.

I also got to see Green Day, i don't really care for Green Day, but holy hell, those guys can put on a fuckin show! I was close enough to the front that I could see their wrinkles...I had to wonder if they were tired...I could't tell. 

Saw The Casualties last year, it was fucking great. They played harder, faster, and more hardcore than the face painted metal heads they were touring with. Got drenched with their beer, stabbed with someones jacket spikes, and a lot of ribcage bruising from being in the front. It was a good time.

WHEN I WAS IN MY EARLY TEENS ,  I DID'NT GET TO GO TO A LOT OF CONCERTS , MAYBE 2 OR 3 A YEAR , SO , I BEGAN TO COLLECT LIVE ALBUMS , BACK WHEN EVERY BAND HAD TOHAVE AT LEAST ONE....SO I , LARGELY , FILLED THE GAP THAT WAY. ON WEEKENDS , MY BROTHERS WOULD BE OUT , AND THEY'D LET ME USE THEIR STEREO , SO , WELL , I HAD A HELLUVA IMAGINATION.....

1st gig i ever went to was the fall in early 79,it was shit,as an impressionable 12 year old i remember thinking,sod this live music bit,im gonna stick to records.

I just put in a request to MRR to publish the old Motards interview from '95! Would love to see it in print once more, but I dunno, we'll see.

dave , I started a message , but , it was 'ET.

Yeah , I have 45s BY ALL OF THOSE SA BANDS WE MENTIONED, have'nt listened to 'em in years , but , I have'nt traded 'em in , either , so , I must have liked them. I've purchased a total of three copies of MRR in my life , and I was mentioned in two of them. Don't get me wrong , I'm fully aware of how little I have to show for my efforts.

As for The Rip Offs , I KNOW ONE OF THEM IN PASSING , NICE GUY , BUT, THEY WERE NEVER MY THING.

If you can find a set of ddrums for $350 go for it.  I'm not sure where you are located but in Canada you can get a decent entery level Ludwig or Gretsch for $700 or $800.

Also check Craigslist.  Good stuff comes up there cheap quite a bit.

I'm looking for a decent, but...cheap set of drums. Hey, i'm an art student in college, i'm not exactly climbing the money tree. My last kit was a Pulse and I loved it, it had great sound and was super cheap $300-$350...sadly my kit was stolen...so I need to start building up my setup again. I think the Pulse set I had is discontinued now, sadly, so I need to look for something else. Anyone know how Sound Percussion and DDrum sets are? 

'Punk ain't a fashion, it's pure music, its pure attitude and its more importantly a frame of mind! Vivienne Westwood can go fuck herself with a broken dildo!' D Barrat, lead singer with scottish band 'Novacaine For the Hole'

'Ha! Still alive you fat bastard!' Stewie Griffin after going back in time and stopping Kurt Cobain kill himself using Hagen Daas ice cream. Check it if you don't believe! Genius! Cannae get more punk than that!

Here's an obvious, but genuine, one ... Words of my own mind:

"Punk is musical freedom. It's saying, doing and playing what you want. In Webster's terms, 'nirvana' means freedom from pain, suffering and the external world, and that's pretty close to my definition of Punk Rock."

-Kurt Cobain

The name's Justin.

Haven't been on here for a long time, mostly just lurked around and scoped the 'casts. I've never really been into forums until this past, but only on www.chopcult.com

I've been working/living at a lodge in Sequoia National Park, CA since March '12.

Spend most of my free time working on my bike, reading, hiking, camping and such. All while jamming to some of the older podcasts I have. Flying Saucer, Wild Wild Sound, Surfcast, Shout Bamalama!

Lookout Records was a big influence for me growing up in the Bay Area. I was too young for the Purple Onion Budget Rock scene, but all-ages pop punk shows were abundant thanks to Lookout's support. I became a huge fan of The Groovie Ghoulies. I remember the excitement as World Contact Day came out and I went to the video shoot for Island of Pogo Pogo. Lookout also exposed me to the Hi Fives, which were the first "retro" band I ever saw. Seeing guys spazzing out with suits and vintage guitars certainly left a big impact.

What no one has mentioned so far was the change in management in  1997 and how that ruined Lookout. Larry Livermore created a defined identity for Lookout Records. With new releases, you knew that the band would fit within the style. When Livermore retired and Chris Appelgren from the PeeChees took over, it was the beginning of the end. Chris' taste was more artsy and open to emo, post-punk and more experimental groups. Gradually, the pop-punk bands were cut and different kinds of bands moved in. Part of Lookout's effectiveness was its judge of taste, but under Appelgren, you couldn't count on a band fitting into the Ramones-y pop punk idiom. I know that at the time, I quickly lost interest in Lookout and moved on to other things.
