" If you say Punk is not Rock 'n' Roll , well , that's wrong. And , if you say Punk is not a form of Rock'n'Roll , well , that's wrong. Punk , to me , is the art of cramming into one second what it used to take all night for us to do. When The Elevators would play with , say , The Conqueroo , at the end of the show, when we'd both played our sets , you HAD to jam. Don't even think of what kind of Hell they'd raise if you did'nt jam.".
"I like The Sex Pistols , sure. They remind me a lot of Fiorello La Guardia. My favorite Sex Pistols song? Hmmmmm. I have it. The First Sex Pistols Song I ever heard? I guess "Hot Cars".
"Somebody sent me a Talking Heads tape. It's hard to listen to !".

My favourite punk quote was said to myself during work today.
"The New York Dolls - nothing but a vaudeville 12 bar blues bar band"
"There was no-one wearing hippy love beads in the summer of hate - 1966" ... Bob Landfield,friend, genius garage collector and true punk.
In regards to hip hop, Bob again comes up with the goods.
"...as bizarre as it sounds, this ``music" has been as destructive and corrosive as any American societal trend in my lifetime"

"When we started out , people were calling us "Punks". I said , "Don't call us Punks !" , because to be a Punk , back then , meant to be a hoodlum. It does'nt mean that , today , but we were never "Punk" like The Sex Pistols. We're not violent".
"On "Girl , You Captivate Me ", where I say "Girl , You Masturbate Me". Love songs are fine , but , life is a little more REAL than that.
"Now , I don't cuss. But , when I did "Loose" by The Stooges , and Iggy sang "I'm burning to you straight from Hell." . Well , Iggy ain't got no ATTITUDE , you see , so I had to give it some attitude , by saying , "I'm FUCKING to you , straight from Hell !".

".Roky does'nt drink OR do drugs...Mole's quote is from the "April Fools Day " interview , KSAN Radio 4/1/78. It might be on you tube , if you can't find it elsewhere. It will ASTONISH you. Roky's host , Howie Klein , befuddled and condescending all the while , certainly was. Gregg Turner and SOME in-studio callers try to hold things together...Howie even admonishes one caller for calling Roky , "Roger" , his real name.

"I went to the van to change my shirt, and the van had been broken into. So I went fucking completely apeshit. I went back in and started throwing shit, walking around all covered in sweat, threatening people with a screwdriver, "Where the fuck is my Walkman?" So they took me back to the hotel to chill out, and Tim [Warren] was missing. He was fucking a disco square."
