Shocker

Ahhhhhh, Rancid! Back when they were all young and sexy, and before Lars fucking tattooed his forehead like a douche. 

Also, yes, I like Rancid along with liking other, more conventionally thought of (and far better respected) punk like The Clash, and Ian Dury, Iggy Pop, The Ramones, The Dickies, Bad Brains, The Addicts, The Vandals...I'll throw in a shocker and admit I can't stand The Sex Pistols, The Misfits, or Henry Rollins though. And for that I have been called all kinds of nasty things by "real punks" since jr. high. Just like being called things by the "purists" who prefer the more traditional sound when I admit I like Rancid. 

Fascinating. People are fascinating.

CBGB movie

 OH! I hadn't heard about this movie till just now! A highly fictionalized history of CBGB's. Taylor Hawkins is playing Iggy Pop!!
Interesting...looks like it's worth a look. Hopefully it's more on par with "Sex and Drugs and Rock and Roll" (which was amazing and I highly recommend it) and less "What We Do is Secret" (which I thought sucked)

Iggy

Taken in the living room of the apartment I grew up in Venice Ca. (long before I got there) in about 1974. Iggy Pop lived in my parents garage during the early 1970s.
