yeah, i grew up in oxnard- yeah, i am in the army.
yeah, there are skinheads in oxnard (mostly hiding out in ventura actually or camarillo- though those days were probably different-) but most violence in the old days in oxnard was less racial and more localism. not that there's anything cool about that either especially since the violence that followed oxnard bands made it hard for them to book shows eventually.
anyway i do apreciate your comments man, i just still see very little in politics in old punk rock music- particularly american punk rock, except when executed by those "older guys" and "artsy guys" who kinda went over their fans heads till more recent times.
dangerous- yes, counter culture- yes. but political? only as much (and in any direction!!!) as any individual punk was.

Yea, I agree Mike v is getting a little freaky. Kind of like skateboardings Henry Rollins. I respect them both but I think they should have a drink or a smoke and mellow a little sometimes. I'm not against straight edge I just think it might help them to ease up a bit ...

I'm going to be posting more vintage skate shit as I've dug my mag collection out of the garage. I think the 90' Blender interview will be next.
