  14. all I could think of
    For a music feud, this one was hard for me, probably because I HATED punk except for one thing; it killed disco (which represented everything I despised about the “music industry”). But I wasn’t opinionated or anything…(“Three chords and an attitude? Are you F*&$#%g kidding me? I’m a drummer and I know more than three chords!!”)

I’m much more open minded now, but I still say Green Day is punk the same way Tom Jones is metal.

    • a guess, no clue if they still perform, but they might. It’s kind of the nature of punk / new wave for groups to burn out.
    • not Tom Petty’s band, Johnny Thunders (Dolls), Richard Hell (Television), etc.
    • starred The Ramones.

I’ll be very interested to see the disparity in answers on this one. A lot of people can’t even agree as to what punk/new wave even is. :slight_smile:
