Meaningless Epiphany

I'm pretty sure I've been watching way too much MMM, but last night I saw some useless show about punk music, which for some reason I couldn't turn away from. So along comes this "expert" (never has the term been used more loosely that in these "Behind the Music"-esque shows), who proceeds to kinda trash the Sex Pistols.

She noted that they weren't the first, they weren't the best, and they certainly weren't the most talented punk band...but somehow, they just connected with their audience the way no other bands from their era did. And they had "The Look."

Now, throw in the untimely death of a member before they had a chance to really ruin their legacy by becoming "kitsch" or a sold-out parody of themselves (see: Rolling Stones, The), and she could have just as easily been discussing Nirvana.

Yes, I know...as epiphanies go, that wasn't much...but hey... It's been a long week, and I need a beer.
