I don't think anyone's going to give me any money.

I think whatever reason you could give for not calling them punk would probably apply equally to bands everyone would consider punk. Whether it's tuneful vocals (Ramones), skilled musicianship (Dead...

By fresh I meant within the context of a local scene (or even just a gig). It takes extreme brilliance to revolutionise music but it only takes a little bit of creativity to liven a show up.
