I Was A Teenage Anarchist
Heard this for the first time at the March 25 Against Me! show in Kingston with my buddy Richard Warman. What a night.
My kids love – and I mean love – this song. Tonight, Boy Two was hollering it as we drove down Queen Street with the pizza and the ‘Avatar’ rental.
Christ, I love punk rock.

Gawd, I love that tune. The video is outstanding too.

Tom Gabel’s (I presume) lyrics are as lucid and thoughtful as ever, and of course, all artists are irreproachably entitled to their own evolution and choices, but *sigh* I wish this song was a little more distinguishable from the brand name pop-punk bands that are floating around these days…

I have to point out that’s anthem rock, Warren,
nostalgia-driven and more than a little derivative of Billy Idol (Dancing with Myself).
