As A Human Being With Notoriety And A Big Mouth, I've Felt Most Threatened During The First Bush Administration. Whenever There's A Bush In The White House, Many People Die, And The Rest Of Us Are Threatened. I Just Didn't Think It Would Happen Quite So Quickly. The So-called Usa Patriot Act, And The Announcement Of Trying People In Military Tribunals If Bush Or Rumsfeld's Or Ashcroft's People Think They Somehow Qualify As Terrorists, Basically, This Is Mccarthyism Run Amok.

The Last True Punk Band To Get A Major Label Contract Was The Dickies.

Especially In Local Elections, Because Hardly Anybody Pays Attention To Those - But It's Really Important Who's Mayor And Who's On The City Council, County Commissioners, Sheriffs, District Attorney, And Of Course The School Board.

I Think One Of The Most Important Things Punk Brought Back Was The Whole Concept Of Staying Independent And Doing Things Yourself. It Made Music A Lot Less Boring In Any Category You Can Name.
