I wondered what the hell "Straight Edge" was. Found a definition on here. From what I can gather, its punk without the sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll......

 

........now where's the sense in that?!!! ;)

No, I'm sorry Tina, I must have missed that post. Where was it?

 

Commie just mentioned Fugazi, I've heard of them! Who else is considered to be Straight Edge? Is it predominently a US thing?

Isn't it ironic giving a label to something that is trying to be just about the music?

 

This thread is too confusing... :confused:
