More Observations
I don't know about the rest
of you... but after this weekend I have heard enough.
Everyone in the punk
"scene", it doesn't matter where you are, has run across people who
"think they know what's best for everyone". These are the self-proclaimed
royalty of the scene. Whether they are fans, members of bands, promoters or
booking agents, they all seem to do the same thing. The goals of their evil
exploits are as follows:
TO DESTROY WHAT UNITY STILL REMAINS AND TO PUSH OUT ANYONE THAT DOESN'T
WORSHIP THEM AS THE "PUNK" GODS THEY THINK THEY ARE.
Isn't this the same shit
that we use to fight against? Allowing other people deciding what is best for
the bands, if not which bands (usually their own), deciding who should be
allowed to booking where, deciding what people should be listening to, etc.
WHAT HAPPENED TO ALL THE PUNKS THAT COULD THINK FOR THEMSELVES?
WHAT HAPPENED TO STANDING UP FOR WHAT YOU BELIEVE IN?
It's been 30 years since it
all began and I doubt it will make it to 31 at the rate its going. Why would
anyone allow people to take over and make their choices for them? Why would
anyone allow these self-proclaimed gods to even exist, let alone allow them to
decide who can be a part of a scene and who can’t?
