PUNK Music Draft - Now Ongoing post awesome punk songs thread (2 Viewers)

I think I only owe 1 , not too sure. 

So many different directions to go but decided to stay local and pick a song and a band I loved in my HS and college days. Really thought this band could’ve hit it . Guitarist Rick Barton went on to be a founding member of The Dropkick Murphys

The Outlets-Knock Me Down

 
Wow.  

eta* Bonzai, great work. Acer, also. That's why I posted that. Bonzai's band is good. "Ghost Town Land" is a cool song. 

Thanks to both for posting their stuff.

As soon as you described  that previous post, I figured you  must have. But still crazy small world and all.

My oldest and quasi-bestest friend from elementary school. But we lost her for a bit during her heady, pre-success, "I'm a punk" days to the city and lots and lots of drugs. Dropped out of HS and was gone a for a long stretch (including a family induced year  in pre glasnost Poland instead of juvie/prison) until her first play showed up (appropriately called Juvee). My mom taught her english., so I'll partially claim responsibility for her abilities....except...she's one of the only true geniuses I've ever known, so nothing was teaching her or getting in her way except herself. The genius was frustrating to be around for me. Even though a lot of things came kind of easily to me, I supplemented through hard work as well. Cintra could just do anything without trying...and do it brilliantly. Oh, I think I'll learn accordian/guitar/astrophysics/whatever....and instantly learn it. She ruined me on guitar, which to this day is still a mystery to me, and pisses me off that I couldn't just pick one up the first time and play it the way she did.

The world used to be smaller

I knew Cintra in her years between spending time in Juvee and writing a play about her.  If her Wikipedia birthday is accurate, she was still a teenager while dating my roommate.  Her youth is much more remarkable to me now than it seemed at the time.  Back then, you hardly even thought about it because of Cintra's enormous self-confidence.  She was usually able to charm the bouncer which I guess is easier to pull off when you're hot sht. 

We lost touch after I moved out of the 7 rooms of doom.  We went to her plays and occasionally crossed paths before she moved to LA and her slice of fame and fortune.  I'm glad I was able to see the comet flash across the sky.

We saw him play a show at Brouwerij in San Pedro last year.  Watt's band was opening for X.  It was cool to see The King of Pedro in his natural habitat.

I wanna say she was 15 or 16 when she ran off to the city. I lost touch with her during those pre Juvee years.

But in those smaller world years, i went to w germany with the state team...I was 17ish (summer between Jr and Sr years...same trip where I got to play against Cameroon wc team). Cintra and I sat next to each other on the flight to Germany. It had been a couple years since I had seen or spoken to her...and she wasn't exactly forthcoming about most of what had been happening or the parent induced year o pennance she was on her way to do in Poland. I also was a young, naive, smallishminded suburban kid- so probably also didn't/couldn't hear what she was saying about those times even if she did. Sounds like you knew her in those years that are still somewhat clouded in mystery for me.

Saw her again with Juvee and the rest of her plays in that stretch when she was SFs enfent terrible. We've stayed closish since then through her moves to LA, here to NY and now back to SF/Marin. Her genius deserves much better rewards for her

 
Btw, I've always wanted her and Wikkid to meet up. Felt like they'd be fast and furious bff's...or kill each other within minutes.

 
Round 8 was Sunday. Anyone owing round 8 picks can make them and 9.01 can go as well on the clock, I believe that is @Ilov80s? Updating everything here this AM.

Depending on how well we get back on track, we'll either return to picking in order or picks at xx time each day.

i think that you, El Floppo, Dickies and Herb may still owe round 7 picks?  I did google doc updating on Saturday, but maybe I missed something.

 
I'll throw this one under female singer for now.

8.13 - A Giant Dog - Sex & Drugs

All the sex and the drugs
And we would get it from thugs
And the people we ####ed
And all the hippies who sucked
All the hearts that we broke
And all the liquor and coke
All the weed that we smoked
We were so hungry and broke
We can't tell all the kids
About the things that we did
We can't even remember being young
We can't even remember being young
We can't even remember being young
We can't even remember being young

 
I still have not caught up with the weekend picks, but this is another one I am positive was not picked...

8.04 - Overthrow - React  **breakdown alert** (the one at the end of this song is great)

That's the title track - I have that album on my personal "perfect albums" list... it is the only album they ever released, and I never saw them live, but once my LINY GB Johnny Lightsout (If anyone has heard of Lightsout we have to talk) accidentally introduced them to me I was flat out hooked.

Yeah, it's pretty great. I think I mentioned it in the 2018 thread but that night I saw them open for THS was the day it was released, so they played the whole thing, it is definitely one of my favourites of the year.

Sayerville NJ, the home of Bon Jovi and the home to The Starland Ballroom. Saw this band here in February 2005 with the Street Dogs. Not as good of a show as when I saw them at Irving Plaza when I met Evan Seinfeld and Tera Patrick (great googly moogly) but I have something else for my Irving show

9.3, Social Distortion, Ring of Fire (cover)

I actually heard this version long before I ever heard the original. Still my #1 earworm.

Had this on a mixtape I gave to my girlfriend in '97. She was the New Girl, of course.  

eta* I also think they used to be Jack Kevorkian and the Suicide Machines and just shortened the name, according to Maximum Rock N' Roll back then, which was how I got my punk news.
