But wouldn't you love to hear that 'rapped' by a Monkey Dust-esque 'classically trained stage actor'?

'Survivors' started out as a great zombie series without the zombies part. Too bad it went off the rails a little in the 2nd season and died.

His pure in-character hosting of the Buzzcocks was astounding.

But very Anglican in the respectful presentation of the devout churchman and relatively secular and scientific Jew character and their relationship

Funny you say 'is more Anglican than Protestant'. Hopefully not sounding too snarky when that strikes me as a very American view.

I think every Canadian does that as well

I am really soft on that- he is the product of a culture that basically issued Rommel: The Desert Fox to all WASP men anywhere near his father's age.

Sweet, maybe I can finally get off this stickin' rock.

"Unimaginative chord structures", is that different than listen to SLF records and just copying imaginative chord structures?

Oh come now. 'You Spin Me' has nothing NOTHING on 'Stand and Deliver'

I think that riff might also be in 'Big Red Car'

Agree on the 'Fox on the Run' but that foppish intro is easily replaced by a screeching Scot woman.

Didn't know the Donnas, but 2-3 tracks in overwhelmed by the 'meh'.

Let's not forget Blondie. But from the punk rock girls I knew, if they liked Gen X they probably liked Blondie.

Love the Buzzcocks, but Vibrators' Pure Mania is about the perfect album to represent Punk as great music (and completely different from the cookie-monster based Thrash/Hardcore that took the name).

Generation X got loads of girls into punk once upon a time. Have to stump for some Canadian content (have to by law) and put forward Teenage Head starting with their self-titled from 1979

I think the Forgotten Rebels is slightly better, and definitely more pop-punk. But then again, they are kind of nazi assholes.

Biggest mystery to me is that his favourite wasn't 'Get Over You'
