ArmatageShanks39 Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 aren't they one of your favorite bands, or do you just like to list bands that are considered "cool" and "punk?" if i wanted to look cool or "punk" i sure as hell wouldnt be on a green day site, or wear green day shirts to school all the time.

justcause Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 So Johnny's at it again, looking for a bit of publicity! His status as an icon can't be denied, but I can't make up my mind whether I find this punk pissing-contest thing more tedious than entertaining at this point. He's making himself out to be the keeper of the flame, but I think he's just bitter - if the Pistols had made as much cash as GD, I think Johnny would have been happy to broaden his notions of punk to accommodate it. I suppose he could be more gracious to the young pretenders, but then that would be a bit disappointing too! Whatever shit he talks, Johnny is who he is - the owner of that snarling white face that frightened the life out of 'decent people' back in the day. Props to him, no matter what!

ArmatageShanks39 Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 ...Even though Green Day are considerd almost thee 'coolest' band at the moment. they are hated in the "punk" community, and most other people think its really uncool to like popular music here. EVERYONE calls em sellouts when i mention em. anyway, back to the topic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JunkiexHeart Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 Wasn't it the Buzzcocks who were all "Green Day aren't punk!" and hardly anyone cared. but mention someone who they have hearrrd offfff. and the world's ending. they are hated in the "punk" community. Well, 'punk' isn't considered cool either. Really, you can't deny it. Green day ARE considered 'cool' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mclaren Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 i don't even blame the guy for being jealous. if all these people today were making millions off of something i helped sparked, i'd be pissed to. then again, if i was him, i'd hide in shame for the rest of my life.

Guest Phoebe. Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 Plonk, in my experience it can be used in a few ways. Plonk meaning Champagne, "Bottle o' Plonk". Plonker meaning someone of below average intelligence. Plonk used in the context of "put" or "place"; "just plonk that on the table" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

punkthepony Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 I think the Sex Pistols suck. Really suck. I just find it funny that he talks as if he's in any position to decide what is and isn't punk. Innit. Punk isn't all fighting the law, mashed-up teeth and safety pins any more, Green Day's punk style (music, attitude clothing) is just a different sort of punk. He's just bitter and regretfull.

mbk Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 I've mentioned this before, but back in 1995 the Sex Pistols had a shameless reunion tour they called the Filthy Lucre Tour, to cash in on punk's resurgence in popularity after the release of Dookie. Not too proud to ride their coattails then... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
