Indeed !  When I was a teen, I was privileged to hang up with much older punk guys. They showed me a lot of alternative music that was not so accessible, with amazing lirics and highly creative. I was myself very rebel and ungovernable, lol. I enjoyed a lot, all the music I got to new from them sharing with me. It open my music horizons. I always been attracted to different stuff.  

 I only had Sex Pistols influence when I was younger.  Would listen to it and hangout with jack-Mormons because I want part of the Mormon cult that reigned in my town.
