Taking out all the mid-60's garage/psyche/punk/freakbeat stuff for a moment (a lot of which emanated from Texas and is documented on all the Pebbles and Nuggets compilations), the Big Bang for the British punk rock explosion occurred on July 15, 1972, when Iggy and the Stooges played the Kings Cross Cinema in London. Everyone who was anyone in London at the time was at that show, including a young John Lydon. Debate all you want about what was punk, who did it first, and where, but Iggy, James Williamson and co inspired what was to become the punk explosion of the mid-70's on that night. 'Raw Power' was recorded soon after in London and released in 1973, the cover photo of which was shot at that 1972 show.

The Ramones- overrated
Garage Punk started in the mid sixties,
have a listen to The missing links and
The sonics. Way cool!
Punk is an attitude

:thumbsu:

 
Three chord garage rock with attitude that was done better a decade earlier than so called "punk" anyway lol
Jimmy can you give me ONE example to back up your argument. A decade earlier than 1976? Give me a break - Sex Pistols were revolutionary.

The Stooges were formed in 1967 but proto-punk goes back further have a dig around, I like the pistols but there's nothing revolutionary about high energy 3 chord rock by that point in time, if anything it was going back to basics after the early to mid 70's over bloated prog-rock pretentious shit.. lyric style, attitude, ethos whatever you want to call it there's the point of difference with 70s punk as opposed to 60s garage/proto punk IMO.
 
After 3 days in Rome I can safely say I've had enough of Gypsy's, selfie stick peddlers (don't even ****ing get me started on the people using them) and people pushing hop on / hop off bus tours. I can't walk 10m without getting hassled!

I've been to Europe twice, and both times I've come back feeling by and large like it's a shithole. A mate lives in Sweden and it's literally killing him.

Maybe go to places that aren't tourist traps...

I'm an absolute history and beer nerd so I've had enough going on to keep me very happy for 5 weeks. Very much feeling lucky to live in Australia though.

Yeah, I enjoyed myself but I definately leave feeling like Australia is a great place to live. I'm a history buff as well, and many places have been completely ruined.

They turned the ****ing eagles nest into a restaurant and gift shop ffs.

I took a shit there, and found myself thinking "lol i'm taking a shit in hitlers bathroom"
