Yea but on his most recent spoken words album he said something to the effect 
of, People living on the streets have alot more worries than whether Green 
Day or the Offspring sold out when the signed on with a major label. I take 
it he is more against part time punks than the bands who make it big.

Hell the Dead Kennedys themselves made  it fairly big. They own Alternative 
Tentacles. Only they did it by playing what they wanted to play, and by 
saying "fuck you" to the big labels.

BTW, does anyone else like Anti-Flag? I found "Die for the Government" in a 
used cd store, but I can't seem to find anything else of theirs. Anybody know 
if they have anything else out and where I might find it? Its the same way 
with the Exploited. All I have found of theirs is "troops of tomorrow" and 
"Beat the Bastards".

Someone recomended a Swedish (I think) Band called Driller Killer to me here 
while back. anyone know if their stuff available in the US?

Peace
OOT
