Poser! at the Disco

Remember that cute little essay I had on how punk is a 30 year old creep that seduces teens on MySpace? Well, you might be able to pull off mallpunk emo bullshit in the US, but you better wear riot gear in Great Britain.

See, punk was invented in America but nobody loves punk rock more than the Brits. So when a punk rock hooligan throws a bottle at your arm, what punk rock thing do you do?

a) eat the glass and spit it back at the hooligan, saying "Fook" in a fake British accent
b) say "Dude, don't fuckin do that again"
c) give some hipster speech on how gutter punk bullshit is dead
d) fall to the ground holding your face and cry


Take a wild guess what Panic!'s lead singer did at the Reading festival?(story via Stereogum)



UPDATE: Some say he might have got hit in the eye. Oh well, serves you right for calling yourself a punk band. That's like being a gangsta rapper and saying you don't want beef.

there are plenty of things to piss and moan about on the subject of patd (I should know, I do my fair share of it) but that's not one

Thanks for reading my blog. I'm glad you don't like them.

Plenty of things in the world to bitch and moan about. This shitty blog post isn't one of them. (Please look at the side for my favorite blog posts)
