Butter commercials,out and out Tory(despite living in the US).He's often described as a 'Punk icon' too.
I got into Punk in 76/78 through my older cousin.I was 8 or 9.I was more involved with 'the second wave' in the early 80s when the thrash stuff hit the scene.
My favourite song is Wasted Life by Stiff Little Fingers.I first heard it in 1978 and it made the hairs on the back of my neck stick up.It still does today some 45 years later.I was a Punk then and still consider myself one now.For many it was a fad,for many it's been a lifelong affair.I still go to Punk gigs and you'd be surprised how many 50+ year olds are still in the old Mosh-pit 8)
Wasted Life is a great song. Last time I saw SLF was about three or four years ago. Eddie and the Hot Rods were supporting, their last tour before Barrie Masters died. I was in my late 50s then. My son was with me (30 ish then) but most of the audience was nearer my age.
