The End: Punk Friction blogs out today.

So now its time to say this is it for Punk Friction. Its lasted alot longer than I thought it would and for me,its been enjoyable and very educational. That is down to you lot (the commenters) and for that I'd like to thank you for your input and your knowledge,opinions,funny comments and making this blog what it was (yes.....shite! :)

Now the good people of rapidshare will be deleting links on here soon (11 days actually because I'm not going to pay them anymore dosh) Any inactive links over the 50 gig limit that I'm well over,they will delete so if you want anything from this blog then grab it now (check all the links are working first) And if you've got a blog yourself and you want to chuck anything from here on it,then feel free and do it (some of you already did this right from the start anyway :)

Now please do not ask me to re-up anything on here. This blog is now dead. The lights may be on but there is nobody home! If you need to get hold of me I'll be pottering away down on my football blog http://goalfriction.blogspot.com/ talking bollocks as usual no doubt and doing alot less than I was here. Fellow bloggers,you will still be seeing me I'm afraid via the comments on your sites and if there's anything you want that you think I might be able to help you with,then give us a shout.

Thanks again everyone for taking the time to visit and comment. I love you all (well almost all) and its been a great pleasure.

Take care everyone xxxx

PS If you didn't download yesterday's surprise gift,then do it before the links die and grab yourself a treat.

gazzpunk said...

This has been a top-Blog Longy and one of the first I stumbled across in my quest of long lost punk gems. You certainly came up with the goods and the banter on your Blog has been excellent.
All the best with the footie Blog but being a massive Leeds fan I guess I could use your Blog to diss Master K Bates !
Cheers
Gazz

Longy said...

Thanks Gazzpunk. I won't mention Derby County if you don't mention Man Utd!

Discovered your blog shortly after re-awakening to punk. What an eye-opener! Thanks for the contributions to my re-education!

Good luck with future bloging. I for one hope you will be back!

biopunk said...

Well thank you Longy, for re-acquainting me with some grebo bands, Shonen Knife, and heaps more.

I'll miss Punk Friction.

Belated thanks too, for the Blondie singles and something else I'm forgetting from a few weeks back...

And I'll follow on over at GF


Cheers!

Longy said...

Thanks anon and thanks biopunk :)

Neil said...

Typical cockney....short arms and deep pockets....and a fooking Chelsea supporter to boot.

We need to hook up on soulseek like the old days Longy :p

Neil aka S!

Longy said...

lol S. You sound like a geordie who's just about to get stuffed by the Manc's. Yes I will go back on soulseek when I've reinstalled the thing! Let us know your addy and I'll hog your queue for the week :)

Marion Cobretti said...

Why all the good blogs must end?

Longy for a long time I don´t come write here or say hello.
I will miss your blog, anyway congratulations for this great job you have done!
Have a visit on my blog anytime you want. My other band Legion of the Sadists have their recordings for the 2nd album ready it will be called The Return of Semen and Blood, a punk rock bomb is coming in the way.
Now I´m singing with the Legion but now all the songs are sang in portuguese except No tomorrow,my english it´s not good enough to sing punk rock, I can only sing in portuguese slang.
My first band also will record an LP on True Force Records this year.
