That video is great. Personally I never got the point when people say that a band "sold out" I mean the idea is to make money right? so if they get super huge, good for them they're getting paid.

Yep, there is nothing cool about being poor!
On the other hand selling out is not making it big, the youth of the late 90's misunderstood this punker mentality like most other points but non the less took the ball and ran with it in the other direction.
The term "selling out" was tagged on bands that changed their structure of music, style of music or copied other bands just to make a buck and not follow their original genre of music after they became established in a particular genre of music that was not mainstream nor popular. It happened with allot of underground punk bands that went mainstream during the 80's making what we now call alternative (new wave) or punk which is just bubble gum Britney spears music with guitars and fake anske.

Very well put man. Also to be fair the music industry has changed quite a bit too. For the longest time record labels stood behind their artists meaning if they put out a crap album the label gave them another chance or two. How many great artists put out shitty record after shitty record and still remained great artists. I believe its because they were given the chance. Nowadays artists are disposable for the most part. If they fuck up they're out. So it doesn't really give them too much freedom to explore. Basically do what you're told if you wanna get paid.

Look at the big picture folks, the Hipster phenomena is just a symptom & a distraction.
These Hipsters will be fodder for the New World Order. Instead of whining about
them, Do something more constructive like buying ammo because right now
it is disappearing along with your rights. A new election means squat
becasue it is all rigged, It is just another distraction, just like your TV set, designed to pussify you & to take your mind off of what they are doing behind closed doors, So Buckle down & prepare for the final
power grab that if sucessfull, will be the End of Liberty as you know it.
The weak ones will want to remain in their little comfort zone of non realty, & will also be victims . So strap your balls back on if you are a real American & get busy.
how's that for a new spin?
Not new at all. It's what I hear on every other motorcycle forum on the net.

So if someone that doesn't like "your kind" came up and hit you for no reason, whether you can defend yourself or not, it's ok? My point was just that being a fucking bully is fucking weak shit. The dude said it was an accident, but he presented it like he did it on purpose. We squared it away. End of story. I tried working shit out with you in PM's about you trolling my posts and starting shit, but apparently, you're still just a dick.

Fuck that. I'd do a full foward approach look at him in the eye, granted he'd prob avoid eye contact at all costs, the proceed to snap his albums in half one by one. I'd prob end up getting yelled at by his girlfriend because she looks like she has more balls them him. Double fuck that, I'm shooting over to williamsburg this afternoon to look for this dimwit!

I like the clean ashtray, pleated and pressed denim, crossed legs like a college professor, and the quizzical, profound look on his face, like he just heard the secret to life. The gentle caress of the record as he anticipates the coolness. The uber cool suede 'overcoat' and beatnik turtleneck.
The dude's got the look down for sure.
