I think it's safe to say we all agree they're Punk..some of us just question if the music is pure Punk musically.

The band put on a good show, but what I really liked was watching "The T.A.M.I. Show," which was screened before the band hit the stage. That was my first time watching it, and I'll definitely have to get the DVD.
Anyone else here ever see ? and the Mysterians or "The T.A.M.I. Show"? If so, do you have any thoughts to share?

I like the sound of that, actually...Could be a great opportunity to put the Hideout in the spotlight too...

You could call it the Norfuck Fest.
joey fuckup said:Ha! The closest I would get to starting up something like that would be something locally, and it would just be a few punk bands around...I would have better luck in Norfolk, though...And that probably wouldn't be too hard...I do know enough people from such bands as the Strap Ons, the Villains, Trauma Dolls, Hydeouts, thee Apostles, Sleaze Stacks, and more... Hmmm....And if I was able to throw something together there, I would have plenty of help...And it wouldn't be that hard to get Larry May down, too...

You have a right to brag! Amazing line-up! Will have to check out some online articles on past Gonerfests, too!

Are The Undertones too obvious, or did someone name them already?

Recently I discovered Exploding Hearts and the Cute Lepers, and this thread gave me some real nice similar bands.
I tried looking up similar bands through last.fm, but found mostly 77 punk of the less poppy kind, and when I searched for powerpop I mostly found over produced emo/poppunk.
The suggestions from this thread are great!

what is included here? Real Kids, Hoodoo Gurus a million billion others?
power pop is a sucky genre title it makes me think of Dwight Twilley,Paley Brothers and Sean Cassidy and other no song acts who got major lable deals and then bombed in the late seventies. The real kings of power pop are probably Cheap Trick or Redd Kross :)

You should make a cheasy Pod-cast and submit it, I'll rather listen to that than search bOOB-TUBE.

none of the bands here are fun and still raw, they are old, and if you like power pop you should just listen to the first Saints Album and practice it in the mirror till you realize your... and in fact, I did, it sounds good I went into the garage and forgot how to record and such, still it aint about that, it's about having fun!!! here here, cheers. Play the same song without a symbol or something, and then wait, you'll be waiting for long. But waiting is the game, aint it!!!

Any of you lovely people use Spotify? I'm putting together a playlist (whiles the hours at work!) and thought I'd open it up to other people to add to. The List is called Andyuzz's List - feel free to subscribe to list and put on some kicking toons!
If you don't belong to Spotify - what should I put on (the choice of music is not exhaustive!)
