Lifelong fan of both but primarily punk.
Saw my first all ages show back in 1986 when I was 14.
It was GBH ,the Exploited and another band I wish I could remember at The Flood Zone in Richmond Va.
We were pretty close to the DC scene that was thriving with Minor Threat etc so it was easily accessible .
As I age I lean a bit more towards the melodic poppy side like Decendants,Dag Nasty or even some newer progressive metal stuff like Coheed and Cambria but every now and then I like to go right back to where I was then.
Accidently rediscovered some Gang Green on apple music the other day and felt just like I was 14 all over again.Things like that that really take me back.It isnt what you remember it is what you forgot that does it.
I still wear my Misfits helmet when I ride my bike or skate.
