Motley Crue roll call!!!!

So would you yourself more identify with the punks who were trying to stick it to "the man" or with the hair metal guys who were trying to "make it big?"

I'd say that the vast majority of punk bands were most certainly not driven by the desire to make it big. Perhaps the Sex Pistols were the exception, but even there, it was more about publicity and sticking it in the face of "the man" more than about becoming a commercial success.

I don't think Jello, or Joey Ramone, or Joe Strummer or Greg Ginn or Darby Crash or Richard Hell were driven by a desire to build a pussy-shaped swimming pool.

Jewel started out by living in her car and playing at small clubs only in So. Cal. Is she punk? Or, is she metal?

She's neither, she's synthetic.

Isn't that the essay question from the new SATs?
