I still know some real punks back from the Young Ones Days who still dress like that. It's hard to hold a career down and support a family with a bright green mohican. Most realised that anarchy doesn't pay the house bills ;)
Most real Punks have aged, did it in college, they are now married, even changed their political views and simply moved on.
Some of them were using the image and style as a statement - they were plastic punks and were never into the music or had any strong views... its was just a popular phase to some who copied the in trend.

they mostly toned down their appearance & got average jobs & settled down to have kids, etc. i know this as i've worked with a few in my past..... anyway, the original punks would be in their 40's or even 50's now...... if u consider that the original punks were around from about 1976 onwards. if u go into the cities, u can still see punks, but not as many as in the 70's & 80's. punk music is still around, but the fans / musicials don't tend to dress like the old style of punks. times change, images & trends move on....... no doubt it'll be around again some day.

Oh, who cares about punk puritanism. I am not a heretic for putting on a Zeppelin or Cobra Starship album. At least they enjoyed making it and admitted to their ambition, with the talent, good looks, passion, sensuality, humour, energy, raucousness, wildness and pleasure-seeking, travelling gypsy poet aspects.
It is not blasphemy for the Clash to have wanted better pay and more record sales. Six years of slavery tends to make one want to cross the Red Sea to freedom. Corporate record companies were like their Egyptian captors. For that, the critics stone you. Mick Jones looked good in that white suit he chose for the acceptance speech at their inaugeration into the Rock'n'Roll Hall of Fame. Confession and confirmation, finally.

The first generation of punks grew up, leaving in their wake, the CHAVS. Those less than lovely punk like gits who have defied the odds and come to show an even lower standard of behaviour!

There still are punks. I'm not one, but my Gothic sister has a friend who is definitely a REAL punk.

They are ostracized through the economic realm and hence forced to comply with conformity or suffer the consequences.
peace out

They went the same place where the hippies, hard rockers, and most goths went... out of style.
It's called trends, and right now we've got this odd little semi-post-emo trend going on filled with falloutboy/Panic! at the disco leading the way. I really hope it ends soon.
