We Were Feared Cuckoo's Nest Documentary Needs Your Votes Early and Often to Win Festival Slot

• THANK YOU to Matt Coker and the legions of Punk fans. Now drive through the curtain to Hollywood and see the show.

• The memories make the nest my favorite place Of all times!!!!!! And I didn't even speak any English at the time :) hahaha !!!! How about a reunion !????? I fly there in a heart beat !!!!!!!!!!! My name is Alexander Montero :) from Argentina :) that's how everybody knew me !!

• There are actually 158 titles in competition so WWF is NOT a shoe-in. Vote!

• ran the m-f*cking cops into the ground!

• I'm not so sure that "Los Angles" is a lampoon, I recall reading some interviews with Exene and it was more like "this is the way this person feels" , presented pretty neutrally, which is what I should have said --'an accurate portrayal of how a lot of people felt about the city'. At any rate in recent performances posted on youtube, they 'beep' the N-word, which is definitely not 'punk rock'.

• Don't forget, the Cuckoo's Nest was where Pat Brown, immortalized in the Vandals song, tried to run the cops down. Apparently where the members of the Vandals and their cohort used to go to pick fights with the cowboys coming out of Zubie's

• I suspect the "American Idol"-run music industry would ignore it now, like the Eagles/Toto/Yes-run music industry did back then. BTW, "Los Angeles" lampoons a chick from the underground scene who threatened to sue X over it.

• Back in the day I always wished I had been born a few years earlier so I could have partook in the golden era of OC/SoCal punk. But can anyone imagine such music today? The whiners would be out in force complaining about the Vandal's 'Ladykiller'. The Dickies 'Stuck in a Pagoda with Trisha Toyota' -- forget about it. Fear's 'New York's Alright' would give all those ernest 'Gay-Straight Alliance' kids the vapors. And Xene would probably be shot wihile singing "Los Angeles' -- with its accurate portrayal of that city.
