PUNK FUCKIN' ROCK

Isn't just music...

Isn't just a catch phrase...

Isn't just a fashion...

Isn't just an angry looking guy at the bus stop...

PUNK FUCKIN' ROCK

is a philosophy...

a statement about society...

a celebration of ugliness...

a rejection of Fascism...

a desire to destroy the Oligarchy...

an understanding that the majority of society are sheep, and manipulated to remain such...

an embrace of apathy bordering on nihilism...

a rejection of religious extremism and theocracy...

understands that the phrase, "FUCK YOU" is a perfectly acceptable greeting or parting...

PUNK FUCKIN' ROCK

understands that it's probably smarter than "you"...

believes in STANDING UP for something...

PUNK FUCKIN' ROCK

has been fighting for YOU, whether you realize it or not...

has shaped society very quietly...

knew there were problems before anybody else did...

PUNK FUCKIN' ROCK

knows that the hippies were wrong...

we can't all "get along"...

there are too many assholes in the world for us all to just "get along"...

some people DESERVE a good cockpunch to their ego...

some people NEED to be put in their place...

taking the "high road" all the time only makes you look like a pussy...

BE OFFENSIVE!

because the people who get offended DESERVE it...

because SOMEBODY has to show the bastards that they can't shove everybody around...

because it's fucking funny as hell to see the prudes get all uppity about "four letter words"...

and because we are a reflection of the ugliness in society!

... besides, when you look like you could potentially headbutt anybody for any reason (or no reason at all), you find out exactly what the assholes are made of!

WE are the counterbalance to the lemmings!

WE are the rebels of modern society!

WE know that you're TOO FUCKING WEAK to fight the wars we need!

WE are the ones who will quietly usher in the anger of the next generation!

YOU'RE WELCOME!

FUCK YOU!

Colorado Music ***EPILEPSY WARNING!!!***

Colorado Music - 2015 - A. Hidahl - ?

Welcome to MY FIRST PUBLISHED GIF!!!

As you well know by now, I LOVE working with the Colorado flag!

Also, being a life-long Colorado resident, I'm also a big fan of Colorado's vibrant and constantly-evolving music scene!  Colorado has been home to some of the BEST local music; even if it hasn't gotten the attention of places like Seattle, New York, and California.

Back in the 90's, I was introduced to local music through bands like Warlock Pinchers, Seraphim Shock, The Descendents/All, Foreskin 500, and Five Iron Frenzy.

Over time, Denver and Colorado's music grew and molded itself into a diverse galaxy of sound, unique presentation, and OUTSTANDING performance quality across all bands and genres.  A few years ago, we had our first Grammy Award-winning artist, The Lumineers!

My love for the local flavor grew and expanded with introductions to MF Ruckus, Black Dots, and The Windermeres; and as time goes on, I'm sure that more musicians and artists will add their names to the growing roster of Colorado's amazingly talented and organic field!

Bands like ITCHY-O will surely pave the way for the future of music and artistic presentation, and bands like the aforementioned MF Ruckus will go on to take the WORLD by storm with their relentless tour schedule and growing base of fans!

 

My dedication to Colorado, it's music, and it's people are undying and unyielding! Our music scene will ALWAYS remain vibrant and strong, being one of the growing cultural centers of the US!

LONG LIVE COLORADO MUSIC!!!!!

As a proud Coloradan, I take PRIDE in our great State's legalization of marijuana,

and the good that it's done for our tax base, schools, and growth as a society!

I take PRIDE in the positive changes it's brought!

I take PRIDE in the fact that it's helping to increase our cultural base!

I take PRIDE in the fact that we now have the highest number of emerging artists IN THE NATION!

I take PRIDE in the horticultural craft and perfectionism of our local growers!

I take PRIDE in the trail-blazing nature of Colorado!

I take PRIDE in the growing artistic culture around glass-blowing!

There's a lot to be PROUD of, as a Colorado pot smoker!!!

Keep on smokin'!
