The biggest sin of this current show is not that it isn’t true to punk. It’s that it doesn’t honor history, ideas, or clothing. It’s dull, and even a suburban house party can negate that kind of bad religion.

Q
Out of all the Met attendees, who do you think best represented the theme? My money is on Zandra Rhodes or Madonna.

A
agreed. Christina Ricci, Eve, and Miley Cyrus are the only other attendees that seemed to understand what punk is.
