(Punk) rock on! At the annual Rebellion Festival held in the seaside resort of Blackpool, England, punk rockers keep the '80s rebel fashion dream alive. Crowds sporting magenta mohawks and Doc Martens flooded to the shore to see classic punk bands like Flogging Molly and Agnostic Front.
I love these old television shows. They always had at least one PSA-style cautionary tale episode about the evils of sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll. Take Quincy (1976 - 1983) starring Jack Klugman — the medical examiner who cared.
This robot band rocks! They've got the '70s New York punk three-chord guitar thing down! Now all they need to work on is their charisma.
Who better to school a bunch of toddlers on the principles of going punk than Deborah Harry, the legendary lead singer of Blondie? Given the generation gap, these kids have no appreciation for the greatness sitting before them, but that's what makes this group discussion (or peanut butter belly fest) all the more amusing. From "pooping on stage" to the meaning of love and life, Deb breaks it down for us all...
In this old episode of Punk'd, Jessica Alba goes shopping, and while she's trying stuff on, she has to endure a man who insists on walking around the store totally naked. This was a while ago, before Jessica had a baby, colored her hair, and Dax Shepard (that naked dude is Dax Shepard, right, and why do I know that?) dated Kate Hudson or Kristin Bell. I'm not sure I would've been as patient as she is!
You know you're in for a doozie when the commercial samples a song from the album and assures you that there's nothing wrong with your TV set — the song just sounds that way. Someone in a studio fast-forwarded through a bunch of hit tunes and — voila! — produced an inaudibly high-pitched, cracked-out '80s punk pop music album by Alvin and the Chipmunks.
Whoever said "out with the old, in with the new" didn't foresee the coming (and staying) of the dance floor disaster we call Soulja Boy. If you compare the moves we bust on the dance floor nowadays with those of the past, you'd understand why someone did everyone a favor and put the Charleston at play to Daft Punk. Let's infuse our new with a little old, shall we?
And the phenomenon continues. These two chicks wanted to play into the Daft-Punk trend, but do it "harder, better, faster, stronger." So they took the hand show and turned it into a full body spell-a-thon.
The corporate retreat didn't turn out as planned.
