The last thing a punk rocker has to worry about is TALENT. I won't rag on the whole genre, because it isn't all bad (some of the older stuff, Velvet Underground, even some Ramones, etc.). But now, punk isn't about talent. It's hardly even about music, just image (anti-society, anarchist type of stuff (at least for the punks around here it is)), mundane repetitions of powerchords, and inchoherent lyrics caughed out of someone who sounds like they have lockjaw. So if you're going to go ragging on the forum and my good friends Van Halen you may as well just leave.
