I used to work in a school,and was encouraged by the fact that all the kids who were forming bands scorned emo - and the band they all really liked was The Ramones.
Thus was music rescued from peril for the future.

all this anti emo stuffis kind of sad really, its like the metal heads telling them not to look the same, yet all metal heads do? agreed lady trousers arent a good look for men, neither is eye makeup but hey, let kids do what they want. alternatively you could just be a "human" and not care. And possibly grow up and not listen to shouty music lol.

The point being,what the kids wanted was The Ramones. They wouldn't've been moved by my Van Morrison lectures.

I really wish I'd written Judy is a Punk. Did you educate the kids with good music?

See above.If they happened to hear Scott Walker wafting out of my office they only had themselves to blame.
Telling kids what to like is counter-productive, as I know from my dad, who foisted Showaddywaddy on me as if it'd make me more receptive to Elvis.
