Vidiot Check

Hey, it’s video clip round-up time here at YuppiePunk World HQ! And what do all these videos have in common? Nothing!

The legendary Fear performance from SNL in 1981: “John Belushi gets on the phone and he says, “This is John Belushi. I’m a big fan of Fear’s. I made a deal with ‘Saturday Night Live’ that I would make a cameo appearance on the show if they’d let Fear play. I got your number from Penelope Spheeris, who did ‘Decline of Western Civilization’ and she said that you guys, Washington DC punk rock kids, know how to dance. I want to get you guys to come up to the show.” | Source



PBS Porn: Wait for it, it’s the last (crotch) shot in the clip.

Speaking of crotch shots, here’s one from the all-girl band L7. Not many dudes would show their junk at the end of a great performance. Even fewer women would do the same. Kudos to Donita Sparks for not being a pussy — and showing it.

Nice 9 minute doc from Current TV on the history of Little Rock’s punk rock scene:

A scene from the punk rock “Quincy” episode: “Don’t underestimate this particular kind of music, Quince. You tell a kid, a vulnerable kid, over and over again that life isn’t worth living, that violence is its own reward and you add to it the kind of intensity that this music has, and you just might convince her.” | Source

Punk Rock Bowling turns 11: “In lane 48, members of a Santa Barbara band bowled with one hand, coddling bright green cocktails with the other. They wore skinny black ties, porkpie hats and white button-down shirts with “THE PANTS?” stenciled on the back. The meaning was clear: The guys were bowling in their underwear. But if bowling in boxers was supposed to be some kind of performance-enhancing superstition, it wasn’t working.” | Source

From the trailer to the “Nerdcore Rising” documentary: “They’re sort of like Bill Gates going fucking hip-hop.” | Source

Fucked Up on FOX News: The dichotomy of this makes our head hurt a little:
