So i really liked the guest lecture that we had yesterday. Not only was it awesome because it was about punk rock but Marta did a fantastic job on the presentation. Although she doesn't speak that loud you can tell that she obviously loves punk rock and studying it and writing about it. I have a book that is probably a lot like the books she sited in her lecture which is called "PUNK: The Definitive Record of a Revolution" (written by Stephen Colegrave and Chris Sullivan). It is a pretty awesome book (although i haveyet to finish it cause I'm really not a reader). If anyone likes punk rock and wants to learn more about the history of it check this book out.
Anyway. I like how Marta also pointed out the gay movement that was happening during the time punk was coming out. In the book i mentioned earlier they also mention it a lot but not in a way of like "the the gay movement was happening" but more in a way of here are some homosexual people who were influential in punk rock, which i think is pretty cool.
and the clothes these people used to wear! CRAZY
