I am not the boy for tats, that would be Helen Bach, who isn’t much of a boy to be quite honest, and I am not much of a Californian, that would be Alyson Camus, but punk? Punk I know. And now that rumours Tom Delong is not leaving Blink 182, all is in readiness from the annual Musink gig this March: three days of love, peace and screams and howls of pain, and that’s just Rancid.
Our Alyson is trying to get over for at least a day and I don’t know what she plans but if I only had one day I could go, my eyes would be on Off! followed by Bad Religion. Though Rancid? Yelawolf? Blink 182? See what I mean?
Apparently, the three days of terror, hardship and blood -otherwise known as getting a tattoo, is in its 8th year…
Here is the info…
