Just Panic
Posted by John Siddle on January 3, 2008 5:32 PM
We all have our secret musical inclinations - bands we love, but would never 'fess up to loving.
My first favourite band was 90s soft-rock has-beens Counting Crows. They're utterly brilliant, yet I don't tell many people some podgy white-yet-with-dreadlocked-hair 40 year old is my idol.
It's the same with genres. I pretty much despise punk as it is today. Local bands trying to re-invent the God Save The Queen wheel makes me cringe.
Punk should have been left behind when society changed...well, that's what I thought 'til I heard Southport band, Just Panic.
