NOFX - The War On Errorism

Well, I have punk in my CD player, and I usually do. However I think this poll is messed up. I refer back to the punk selection: "Punk (real punk not that Blink-182 crap)" I assume you mean punk like the Misfits. However Blink-182 is punk, they're from a genre commonly known today as "Pop-Punk." One of the very first punk bands to emerge ever were The Ramones, and no one can disagree that they were very much punk. However they were also the first band to be classified as Bubblegum Punk or Pop-Punk, and so Blink-182 isn't very much different from the Ramones. And by the way Green Day is considered to be Punk, or ever Pop-Punk by some. Billie Joe Armstrong even has "PUNK" tattoed on his knuckles. So, I think maybe you should do a little more research, and type out polls in a much more general manner before you post. It would probably have been much better to not give an example of any bands or musicians. Also there are so many music genres, it's hard to make a good poll with less then 20 choices. I don't see "Country", "Rockabilly" or "Emo" any where on the poll. I think I'll listen to some pop-punk now that this CD has just ended.

-EDIT- I do however see the category for "Other" so I'm sorry about that part however I still stand behind the rest of what I said.
