‘Le Punk’ in Paris
Pierre sings rock
United Press International
PARIS — At a topdrawer opening
of an art show at the new Beaubourg
museum, a group of Parisians in
their Diors and Saint Laurents
stared at an unshaven man. Lie
wore a black beret, dark glasses,
splotches of rouge on his face, flap
ping military greatcoat, clumpy hik
ing boots, and a pajama top with
military medals and buttons sewn
all over it.
One of the first-nighters cried
out, “Why, it’s Pierre, What on
earth are you doing in that getup.?”
With a flourish of his cigar, the
first nighter replied, “Alors, ce soir
je suis punk” tonight Tm punk.
“Le punk” has come to Paris.
After ravaging the United States
and then England, punk has found a
grimy foothold on the continent in
trendy France. A survey by UPI
bureaus in Europe also turned up a
punk tendency in Sweden and a few
traces in the Netherlands, but that
was all.
So far punk is virtually unknown
in West Germany “Punk rock?
What’s that?” inquired a couple of
Bonn teenagers and Switzerland.
Vienna disc jockeys refuse to play
punk rock. I would not even pick up
such a record, let alone play it, ” one
Austrian disc jockey grunted.
r
But in France the maniaks, hjsT<3
on strong. tTex£
Punk took a year to catchkj j s tric1
France. The first punk rodj arre
last summer was a flop.
Then throughout the
French punk rock groups,®; j n g
Portugal, Spain and Belgium are
just getting around to rock and punk
has not yet scratched the scene in
Italy “Such horrible goings-on
never could catch hold in civilized
Italy,” is the theme of Italian
magazines showing picture spreads
on the English punk scene.
In the Netherlands, one station
broadcasts 15 minutes of punk rock
each Wednesday. Punk types have
been spotted around Rotterdam,
and department stores offer the
punk symbols — razor blade and
safety pin jewelry.
Even more punkers are seen on
the streets of Stockholm. The
British top punk group, The Sex
Pistols, played to sell-out crowds in
Sweden in July.
