i get your point, but given the choice between the two i'd have to go for the punk's original fool. i think the 'meaning of punk' discussion has been rolled out enough already. But come on. Avril Lavigne? how sanitised and pre-packaged can you get?

anyone who's played at the nickalodeon choice awards automatically gets dropped to the bottom of the list.

Avril?? You may as well say that Pink and Gwen Stefani are more punk than Syd Vicious.

Sid may have been a complete junky fool but he was pretty anti establishment, he did attempt to play his bass even though he couldn't and he did give a big middle finger and a fucck you to just about everything. When it comes to who is most punk (whatever your idea on what that is) Syd has more punk in his left testicle than Avril has ever had and will ever have.

Joe Queer, there may be better but he has persevered for over 25 years making a fraction of the cash of a lot on this list.

I'm pretty pissed so this decision may not stand

Syd was a junkie punk version of Nick Carter hired purely to make the Sex Pistols look more rebellious. Not punk at all, quite the opposite.
