Yes, its hard to call yourself a fan of punk music if you dont have some kind of knowledge/respect fo where it came from. But i dont see why theres so much resentment towards GC and Avril Livegne. I mean would you rather have them completely rip off bands like "The clash" etc . You may not like the sound of it but remember there are a lot of younger people who never got the exposure to the classic punk bands you did.
Im not a big fan of "GC" or Avril myself but i wouldnt like someone telling me that my bands are trash, and i dont know real rock just because I dont go around blasting Metallica or Led Zepplin all day. But i do get what your saying though. Like when GC is on TRl and theres all these young girls wearing there torn up classic t shirts and ties with colorful non mathcing socks posing as real punk fans. When you know there probably the girls that just got off the N Sync/Backstreat bandwagon. Kinda sad really
