Heh. It was hysterical listening to Billie Joe explaining to a crown in
Denver some years back that GD was not a punk band. They were a "melodic
California pop band."
If I were going to nominate GD here, though, my cerebral side might
actually scroll back to something like /Insomniac/, when they were very
deliberately riffing on The Kinks. Who were, in my opinion, a decent
power pop band....

/"...it's a lonesome thing to be passing small towns with the lights
shining sideways when the night is down, or going in strange places
with a dog nosing before you and a dog nosing behind, or drawn to
the cities where you'd hear a voice kissing and talking deep love in
every shadow of the ditch, and you passing on with an empty, hungry
stomach failing from your heart." - John Millington Synge /
