      Meant to thank you on this, Spite! I've downloaded all 16 volumes and talk about a treasure trove of music! Sure there was stuff on there I already had, but there was also quite a bit I had always wanted, but couldn't find it.

    • that's a relief. i wonder how long it'll be until people quit coming to the merch booth requesting CD's

    • Istill stick to my opinion that they aren't going anywhere. cd's still out sell our vinyl 4 to 1.  We've sold about 3000 records this year compared to around 12,000 cds in 2011, mp3's are kind of stagnant. Punk rock just doesn't sell very well via digital services.

    • well....since vinyl sales are on the rise again, maybe it's time the automakers go back to this idea....

    • fuck that shit. nobody should ever pay money to get into a show at SX. there are plenty of free parties/shows going on, just as good if not better bands playing. Also a lot of them are promotional which means free beer, tacos, what have you. from my experience the best plan is not to have a plan. 

      that's my two cents

      So I checked out the website (Never attended a music festival of any sort). Lineup looks pretty fun, I've seen a handful of them on little west coast tours.

      But 675 for a Music Badge?

      and Hotel Rooms at 150+ a night?

      We're talking at least 1500 (including travel, food, drinks, etc.) I don't know about you guys, but I'm dirt poor working class. I can't afford that shit.

      Does anyone know of a cheaper way to do this?

    • And I loved these guys in the 80's, but I kind-of forgot about them during my anger fueled punk days.

    • I came across this after listening to the Von Zippers on youtube...

    • Someone gave me a tape with Suicidal Tendencies on one side and The Exploited on the other.  It was all downhill from there.  I realized it was ok to be pissed off at what was going on around my.  I liked a lot of the hardcore stuff too (Cro-Mags, Agnostic Front...), but there was a lot of directionless violence and the straight-edge thing was crazy in Florida (late 80's).  The Damned, Motorhead, and The Cramps were and still are my favorite bands and that led me to explore the more rock-n-roll side of punk.  Those were good days and I miss going nuts in the pit and I miss all of the raw energy.

    • I don't think German country attempts should be allowed to count because that is mainstream aweful. As for Kopper's video, I was trying to work out if it was a parody or not. It seems a bit unneccesary all that violent hardcore dancing when there's no one around. Also they keep making tit gestures as if their song was about large breasts.
