I had been listening to punk rock since I was 11 years old. But one day I got tired of all its trends, posers, commercialism and inner fights, not to mention it got to soft for me, since I also started listening retro music at 16 and already admired gangsters and vintage horror films!!! So I got PSYCHOBILLY tattooed on my hand, sold all the 300 + cds I had and saved some money to buy myself a 1965 Hardtop Ford Mustang. I sold everything: Circle Jerks, Sex Pistols, NOFX, Bad Religion, Exploited, The Clash, La Polla Records, Propaghandi, Vandals, Casualties, etc You name it!!! Well, I finally bought my car and I proudly named it HELLVIS! That car and my signed Social Distortion album are my most valuable possesions...............
   
Yo habia estado escuchando punk rock desde que tenia 11 anos. Pero un dia me canse de sus modas, posers, comercialismo y peleas internas, sin mencionar que ya se me hacia muy suave, puesto que empece a escuchar musica retro a los 16 anos y ya admiraba a los gansters y los filmes de horror de antano!!! Asi que me tatue PSYCHOBILLY en la mano, vendi los mas de 300 cds que tenia y ahorre cierto dinero para comprarme un Ford Mustang 1965 Hardtop. Vendi todo: Circle Jerks, Sex Pistols, NOFX, Bad Religion, Exploited, The Clash, La Polla Records, Propaghandi, Vandals, Casualties, etc Bueno, finalmente compre mi carro y orgullosamente lo llame HELLVIS! Ese auto y mi lp autografiado de Social Distortion son mis mas valiosas posesiones...
