"Everybody will now rise
To the occasion
And know your rights
All three of them
Number one
You have a right
Not to be killed
Unless
It was by a policeman or an aristocrat
Know your rights
Two
You have a right to food, food money
Provided, of course
You agree to be investigated, humiliated, and treated with otherwise
Fashion
Know your rights
All three of them
Know your rights
All three of them
Yeah-hey-hey
Number three
You have a right
To free speech
As long as it is not the truth
And has nothing whatsoever to do with the truth
And furthermore
Has never, in any way, been connected with the truth
These are your rights
Know your rights
Stand up for your rights
Yes, all three of them
It has been suggested in some quarters
That this is not enough
Be quiet, go home
Finish up your drinks
Get off the streets
Break it up now
Don't you have a home to go to?"
-The clash
Idk I haven't posted in a while but this is js something that's been bothering me for a while. I don't know but I just feel like you shouldn't call yourself a goth, punk etc just because you dress like it. Sure, fashion is an aspect of being in a subculture but I just feel like it reduces those subcultures with years of history to a mere trend.
my rock obsessed ass:
the amount of times a teacher actually asked me about my band shirts is crazy

Topper
Lochem Festival, Openluchttheater, Holland, May 20, 1982.

June 11th 1977
Topper and Joe are both fined for stealing pillows from a hotel. The theft occurred on May 21st at the Commonwealth holiday inn in Seaton Burn after a concert at Newcastle University. Strummer was fined £60 for the theft of the pillows and the towels, and headon was fined £40 for admitting theft of a hotel key. Joe claimed the pillows were taken to make the bands return to London in a van “more comfortable”
I am reading Passion is the fashion and there is something hilarious
the clash's bios for the armagideon times, a zine published by kris needs and robin banks <3
Joe Strummer and Johnny Rotten at Dragonara Hotel, Neville Street, Leeds during the days of the Anarchy Tour in 1976, as documented by Ray Stevenson.
JOE STRUMMER: “We’re the Clash, man. And we’re gonna be bigger than the Sex Pistols!”
(Melody Maker)
CARY DARLING: “Joe Strummer has said …” JOHN LYDON: (boos and hissing noises) CARY DARLING: “… that he too is giving up ethnic music and going back to punk rock, which he feels is white man’s rebel music.” JOHN LYDON: “Oh yawn! Let’s face it, Joe’s lost, isn’t he? Go back, that’s always been his thing, you know. All their records reek of going back. Go forward, Joe, there’s a whole world out there! There’s nothing great about that at all, backward thinking - boo, that’s for losers.” (BAM magazine, 1984) JUDY MCGUIRE: “What did you think of Sex Pistols reunion?“ JOE STRUMMER: “I was for it, because I’m a Glenn Matlock fan. Remember nine-tenths of their career was with Glenn Matlock, and hey, he wrote the tune to “Anarchy in the UK”. You gotta have a tune, you can’t just shout gibberish…” (Punk Magazine) JOHN LYDON: “…Joe Strummer came from, like, wealthy parents. So don’t be playing my working class roots on me like that. I truly do come from that. And it bugs me when they’re trying to use that as some kind of edge to their career. And it became appalling with Joe. And God bless him, he’s dead, and I never speak ill of the dead. But to be running around screaming ‘class war’ and ‘kill the rich,’ while living in one of the wealthiest areas of London, struck me as a little odd. You know, and bragging about taking the bus home. Well, ‘that’s fine, Joe, but the eight million pounds mansion you live in. (laughs) You know, get a cab…” (Coldmine Magazine)
One can almost picture them as two cranky old geezers dissing each other in the same retirement home.
