Loves to be loved

So me and the missus are talking about punks. I think David Bowie may have been one of the first pre-punks.
Watch this entirely FANTASTIC David Bowie video from long before MTV: Jean Genie. Oh its good.

He was certainly influential in the Glam punk movement.

I would still look to The Stooges, and their first album in 1969.

Stooges related personal anecdote: Joan Jett was playing here locally, and I was about 10 feet from the stage. She looked at me, and I screamed at her "I want to be your dog!" So they played the Stooges song, then Gary Ryan whipped his guitar pick at me and I caught it.

I was just talking last night about how I would LOVE to go to a David Bowie show!
