First, a really bad Germs bio-pic, followed by three 50-year-olds and a TV actor impersonating the dead lead singer playing live as the band ["With Shane West, 'New' Germs Spreading," Dec. 27].
It sounds a lot more like "Punk'd" than punk to me.
The "new" Germs are the complete antithesis of what was exhilarating and exciting about punk, circa 1977.
