Sorry guys.

PS. Punk sucks

Shut up. That place DID SUCK, and Hard, it was a falling apart shit hole.

but it did a lot for many bands, and many types of music.

but its not as sad as The Rat closing. nothing will ever be as tragic.

This thread, for the most part, is becoming a flame on CBGB's and Punk. If you don't like Punk, the most you can do is say it in a nice way.... Or, you can just shutup. I don't flame, so please don't flame my threads (I don't know where peacemaker got his information from, about me flaming..etc, etc).

I'm saying it in the nicest way possible, by saying it strait up how I feel. What better way?

Tell me though, flamse aside...what did punk mean? Seriously, I'm honestly asking.

well theres a lot of different meanings. Some bands are anti-government and stuff(not typically my style.) I normally listin to unity punk, or skin punk just because its all about keeping the friends that understand you and stuff. Some bands that call themselves punk disgrace the name-Avril Lavine, Kelly Osbourne, Thrice- but, a lot of the underground and not big label bands are great. I understand why you dont like it, a lot of people dont and I dont hold it against em.

Aye, you can say you dislike it... saying that it sucks is basicly saying "My opinion is the only one that matters and no matter what YOU think I'm the one that's right!".

So yeah. You don't like it we get it. Now shut up and go listen to some fiddy cents.

Let me find a picture of my autographed Casualties shirt. Or my Justin Sane autographed shirt.

That aside I do not listen to rap at all. I'm more of a metal/thrash/death/hardcore metal type of kid.

Okay, I admit I started a arguemnt, but I believe they bring out the best in people and I wanted to see you defened your point.\

I don't hate punk, just the punk crowd. Oh, and CBGB.

There was a bit on current about CBGB's. It was funny how they interviewed a bunch of people who were like "Man, we're gonna keep this place open no matter what." Obviously it didn't work. I got the impression that the place was somewhat friendly to newcomers, and while I'm not a punk fan, it did seem like a good icon going down. The space itself was tiny as fuck though. I can't imagine a crowd in the place.

Ehh, I find punk as a musical genre decent to listen to...at least some of it. Although I suppose I say that about just about any musical genre so I'm not sure how much that means.

Punk as a sub-culture though? Fuck 'em. Why? Because I find a sub-culture that as a whole is nothing more than a bunch of elitist twats hiding behind piercings to be really fucking annoying.
"Be yourself! ...but 'yourself' better be different from anything considered socially acceptable or your a fucking tool!"

Idiots.


*Edit* Oh, yeah and on topic I suppose- I would think anyone would find it to be kind of sad that the place closed down regardless of their feelings on punk. It is the loss of a place that bears a decent amount of historical significance as far as music goes. If it is/was a pit I'd rather see it restored than just demolished.

Elf, you get my point exactly

It's because he's happy.

Your first post did not state what you are saying now. that's why other people were saying what they did.

[Happy lil Elf]

The happy is just a ruse. In reality I'm jaded, bitter, cynical, hate-filled etc.
