Which Characters do you relate to?
Yea I've seen it but it's been a while, I was living that lifestyle, but like Stevo I grew up/sold out. I used to have blue/green liberty spikes for hair(never really dressed the uniform though, Just Punk band shirts&jeans). I Always went to shows no matter how far, I don't really talk any of my friends from that period of my life (or the ones still alive) Just this year Four people I know have died form various issues (Two of them where Good friends who I had'nt talked to in a year or so,), others i've lost contact or moved away.
Much of the Movie I could really relate to growing up in a small town with many Rednecks, I remember many brawls where the 6'5 reneck would go after me 5'5 and his smaller 5'6 friends would attack my friends who where usually taller. There just always more of them then us. If I could pick who i was Mostly like in the movie Bob(I just drank! ... & a large amount of it too) & Mike (quiet, but can get really rowdy) and in the end like Stevo. I'm now a Computer System Administrator for a Fortune 500 company. Things have changed much since then. Now I just work..not many friends. Although I've always been an odd-ball but I did fit in with the Punk-Rocker crowd. So the Movie to me just reminds me of the good/bad times of my life.
Its nice to see people where where never into punk and it's lifestyle can relate and get something from the move!
Thanks for listening to my remenisant Rambling about my past & the movie SLC Punk!.
