  1. 10.15 saturday night - the cure
  2. Welcome to the UK 2022. Loads of 50 somethings sitting in their homes worth nearly a million quid awaiting a retirement where they don’t have enough pension to cover surging prices of food and fuel and are scared of losing their mobility because there are precious few local facilities such as libraries, public toilets, post offices. The bus services are woeful and many things have moved online and require decent eyesight, coordination and technical knowledge. Getting sick is even more frightening. Much of the working population look with envy at their circumstances because they can’t even afford the overpriced home to be isolated in. This has been decades in the making. It doesn’t need to be this way.
  3. vagabonds - new model army
  4. Could you do a dance off instead? Possibly to Billy Jean? A couple of middle aged blokes attempting the moon walk would far more entertaining.
  5. do nothing - specials (R.I.P)
  6. repeal of the licensing laws - the pogues
  7. Ask - The Smiths
  8. into the valley - skids
  9. Some things don’t need to be overly complicated or intellectualised. If muting with your thumb works for you then do it. If growing up on a working class council estate where there is no work and lots of bored angry youths about is reflected in the music of the time then no middle class intellectual needs to write a thesis on the subject to make sense of it. Chomsky didn’t need to publish a paper on The Specials Ghost Town. I just had to walk into the town centre to understand it.
  10. I know you love a quote! I’m no expert on the history of Punk but I doubt that many of the original punk’s thought too deeply about the subject. They were largely bored, broke and a bit angry about the state of their lives. It hadn’t changed all that much by my early teens.
  11. I was a bit too young to be a Punk but old enough to have been impacted by the social and economic conditions of the 1970s. I doubt if it was just a fashion statement for most. They were tough and bleak times.
