Just got done with Kevin Mattson's new book, We're Not Here to Entertain. He's the kind of person I wouldn't have gotten along with back in the '80s punk scene. Sure that punk fit in this small defined package. It's a decent book for catching the horrific feeling of the Reagan presidency; helped confirm my opinion of Trump as Reagan II.

Trouble is he tries to define punk as only existing between 80-85, white male, suburban, and straight edge. There are many omissions to support his view.
