Interesting...? (It is to ME anyway)

Does anyone else get into "punk" rock? I'm listening toThe Ramones right now & I want to jump all over the place. I've been up for about 24 hours and WAS exhausted until it hit this spot on the playlist & I DON'T feel SEDATED!! I mean, HEY HO LET'S GO!!! I WANNA DANCE!! I mean...are there people who don't get revved up by the Blitzkrieg Bop?

I ask because not that long ago I was watching a Joy Division video online and my uncle was nearby and informed me that it was crap...I told him flat out that I loved it. Joy Division, The Violent Femmes etc, they have always had an amazing effect on me.
He looked at me as if I'd lost my mind. Keep in mind that this was the uncle who probably had the most influence on my musical taste, being more like a brother at 7 years my senior and buying me my first albums(Kiss, Queen, Cheap Trick, AC/DC etc)

I also love Kiss, Incubus, L.L.Cool J, Aldo Nova,The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Feist, Disturbed, The Moldy Peaches...the list goes on & on but punk has a special place in my heart.

Does anyone else feel that as well?
