Because the anywhere punk scene is about as dead as his career at this point. Are you inferring that the New Orleans punk scene is scary and badass and not mostly made up of 16 year olds? Because I don't think I can believe that. |

The New Orleans punk scene consists of high school kids in Metairie that like to dress up a lot and go to the one punk venue in Metairie, the Highgrounds, the most widely lampooned music venue I've ever experienced, and gutterpunks in their early twenties from wealthy families who buy ratty clothes at pawn shops, get dreadlocks, and play the banjo on the street in the French Quarter for money.
It's not great, but at least nobody's joining the Illuminati. |

SLC is basically the story of every punk kid that's ever existed. |

I'm sad that MODS don't exist anymore. If I could be any sort of MUSIC TYPE, it'd be a mod! |

Mods were pretty cool. I'm not sure how they act personality-wise. But their fashion sense was clearly superior to punks. |

To the best that I can put it together, mods and mod culture were manufactured wholesale by the Who and their management. |

Matt, just think about it! We could each take a high number, and then stay up all weekend on speed cavorting with ghoulish promoters and listening to fake Merseybeat. |

Are you talking about Quadrophenia, ALDP?
You're kind of right, in a way.
The idea of MODS came into being alongside rock n' roll. The idea was that there were two kinds of teenagers and young adults in the 20th century, mods and rockers. Rockers were lower class, ideally wore all leather and rode motorcycles, were rude and dirty and liked loud, aggressive music (by the day's standards). Mods, by contrast, were the nerds. They were from rich families. They dressed neatly. They listened to modern jazz (hence the term mod). They were polite and boring.
The Who arguably helped start punk rock partially through a movie like Quadrophenia, that reinvents the mods as rebels.
In New Orleans there is a place called the Saturn Bar that has Saturday Night Mod Dance Party. The one time I went, it resulted in sexual intercourse with a redheaded Jewish private college student who wasn't addicted to heroin, but just liked to party and listen to glam rock and could quit whenever she wanted.
She had a nice body, was actually pretty funny, and basically wanted nothing more than to please me sexually, but I was so ashamed with myself for going to an event called Saturday Night Mod Dance Party that I never went back. |

Music is a sound pattern in time. You too will be a sound pattern, in time. |

You should go to a shopping mall and hang out outside of the Foot Locker, and every time hot white girls are about to pass you you should step towards them with your hands clasped in front of you, one in a fist so that you can pound your other hand with it suavely, and you should say to those girls "yo shawty lemme holla atcha." Then lick your lips and bob your head. If any of them respond positively go "yeah word is bond girl lemme git dem digits". Then call her a week later and ask her to come over and suck your dick. |
