And about the other...yes, it's all hot topics fault and I proved this point a few months ago. A friend brought a guy she was dating to my house, and he had on a Ramones shirt...so I decided to be and ass and say as I was playing Ramones, "Hey Aaron, do you know who this is?". Wanna guess what he said? Of course, "no". Why promote a band you have no clue who is? Lame.

that person would never be allowed in my presence again.
and yes, the old Misfits were fucking awesome. but I, as well, don't know what you mean by credit. someone said, "sure ,they created a genre, but big deal." or some bullshit like that. yes, it's true anyone can create a genre. I can bang on my guitar and toot a kazoo at the same time and call it "britches" and then "britches" would be a genre I had created. no big deal, right? but, what if, all up on a sudden, there were about a million people banging on a guitar and playing kazoo? different story. I would deserve a lot of credit, not just for creating a genre of music, but created an entire "movement" (that word sounds gay as hell, but you know what I mean).
