(Side note, the following events aren't exactly what happened, but I tried to keep the facts straight so just bear with me, thanks!)

It's the late 70's and punk is on the rise. So what better way to spread the word  than a tour? More specifically, the Anarchy Tour. Ari Up, lead singer of the Slits, is a free spirited, care free, happy 15 year old. She honestly could care less what people think of her. She has her friends and pride by her side. Whatever could possibly ever make her feel so uncomfortable, confused and all out of whack? In the words of everyone  (at least in my story):


"...GODDAMMIT JOE!" 

And there you have it. Get ready for a little rock, a little roll, drugs, some unnecessary sexual tension, romance , lies, betrayal, some good music, and some sure as fine hell raising!Todos os Direitos Reservados

Destroy Civilisation: The Adventures of an Anarchist Pop Punk Band from Paris, de JoshuaHudes

I know what you want! You want a book to throw you back in time, back to the Parisian punk scene in the mid-2000s. That's your dream, kids! I know it! You want a book to help you know what it feels like to play in one of France's top anarchist pop-punk bands. You want to feel the heat, the sweat and sleepless nights without the real problem of all the bad breath and broken toilets. I know what you people want from me! You want to get lost in the insane stupidity of driving across the country in vans to play for half an hour at 4 in the morning to 4 people too drunk to remember your music the next day anyway. That's your idea of a perfect book. You want to pierce the veil of the unfathomable urge to play punk rock in the worst conditions and places known to man. We both know that! I know what you want! So this book almost does that. It takes you on the fun-filled journey of Louis Lingg and the Bombs through France's crumbling music scene before succumbing to the rabid anger, unknowable madness and uncontrollable despair of the Covid era. Hey! No book's perfect! Take the good with the bad! So yes, this book ends terribly in a pool of drool and tears. I hope that this book converts you to our values of resisting unjust authority, unflinching solidarity, mutual aid and radical love for each other and our world. Oh hell, yeah! Now you're talking! See you in the pit!

Another You - Austin Carlile, Tony Perry, Chris Motionless, de rad_lex1125

Rory Pearce Smith had it all. She had the 'loving' boyfriend, and by loving, she means the lying, cheating guy that worked his way into her life and turned it inside out. She thought he was 'the one' and now that she knows he isn't, she's done. She's done with the idea of love and romance. She has a successful career touring with and managing various bands and artists. She's seen it all. So what happens when she has to start working with the guy that turned her into the cold hearted woman that she is today? What happens when he has no recollection of her? The fact that she can remember every little detail about him and he's forgotten her like someone forgets their phone before leaving the house. She's known as being hard on the bands she tours with, but that doesn't mean that people don't praise her for it. Can she keep it strictly professional, forgetting everything that he's ever done to her, or will she crack and make his life a living hell? And what happens when she has two other guys competing for her affection?

Saved - Ronnie Radke, de emelisselove

"Go change, Dear Juliet," he stood, holding out his hands and pulling me up. "Dear Juliet," I smiled widely, "I like that." "From now on you shall be my Dear Juliet," he smiled, spinning me. ---- A really fucking emo story cuz I was feeling really fucking emo :p Currently in the editing process!! ---- He saved her. He saved her from those disgusting beings putting their hands on her. She hurt herself both physically and mentally, drugs, razors, needles, all because of her trauma from her father. Juliet was at a local bands concert when suddenly a group of men surrounded her, planning to do vile things to her. Ronnie saved her, he saved her from those nasty beings. From there on they were connected. Connected mentally and physically. When both find that they are each being abused at home, they make a plan to run away together. They take a journey across the country, headed toward Las Vegas where Ronnie has a shot at becoming a rockstar. Juliet pushes him to go for it. While Juliet is a spontaneous free spirit and Ronnie is more grounded, they complement each other nicely. When a fight about Juliet's self harm and drug abuse, and Ronnie's anger issues arises, they each go their separate ways. Will they find their way back to each other? Will issues tear them apart again? Read to find out! :) ---- Started: 9/2/22 Finished: 2/13/23 #1 in fallinginreverse 10/10/22 (holy shit that's crazy) #1 in escapethefate 1/2/23 #1 in radke 1/25/23 #1 in ronnieradke 1/31/23

sad, beautiful, tragic // j.r.b, de sopranoeilish

~some things you just can't speak about.~ // hazel eloise finley's old english and frankly quite pretentious name was never released to public whenever she survived the shooting at her high school. not even after the paramedics took her away with a severe bullet wound to the calf or even whenever she drug and hopped herself outside for medical attention afterwards either. only known as the jane doe that survived a school shooting, and the years of physical therapy, permanent nerve damage and chronic pain proved to be the least of her worries. it took years of therapy, hospitalizations, and prescriptions for her to even feel ready to start college after high school. and whenever she did, much like her name, she was determined to bury it. despite the trauma she went on to become one of the most gifted music majors enrolled at the prestigious university in Nashville, TN, an honors student, a residential advisor, and slowly making her way to the student council someday. Though just coming into her sophomore year, a heavily tattooed literature major transfers into the room across from hers that throws everything off track. Julien Rose Baker infuriated her at first, not only because her friends and roommates were loud and obnoxious and stayed up all hours of the night playing loud music and probably doing anything but studying, but because she was better than her, in every sense of the word. sight reading music without missing a beat or a note, shredding her guitar in nearly every practice room, leaving most professors in awe of her vocal range, and not to mention the writings of hers read during some of the english classes the two shared. it was jealousy at its finest. though whenever an unexpected turn of events leaves hazel almost having no choice but to be vulnerable, something else besides avoiding her dorm neighbor might turn into something else. ~ TW for gun violence, ptsd, anxiety, depression, etc...

Forgotten, de Eternal_Moonlight13

Ever since I was 9 she was my bestfriend, Over time my feeling towards her grew and she meant everything to me even if she didn't know that. When I was 16 she graduated highschool and she focused her life on music and a year later she left for her first tour. I didn't know it at the time but it was then that we started to grow apart. A year later we were completely out of each other's lives. That year was the worst year of life at 19 I got into a very traumatic incident losing someone important to me. It was then that I decided to give up on her and shut everyone out that I cared. 3 years later I was finally turning thing around to better myself but there she was standing in front of my door. She was asking me to forgive her, how can I forgive her if I can't even forgive myself. I had to suppress those emotions, my feeling towards her. She needs to know that I gave up on her, and she should've done the same. Her stubbornness got the better of me, I thought I could keep those emotions lock away but I couldn't. Now it's all catching up to me and it's all flooding way to quickly, I can't keep myself together. I'm hurting her for the things I've caused. I thought I could forget, let be for once but I can't.

All the Young Punks (New Boots and Contracts), de RebelsLibrary

This is a Sequel to my previous work "Rebel Waltz." I would love it (if you haven't already) if you checked out Rebel Waltz before starting on this one, but you don't need to. I hope you enjoy this! When Joe realizes he cannot live without his only one, Candy, he goes after her. But The Clash are about to go on a European tour and face success, is it possible for them to stay together even when there's groupies, drugs, and fame getting in the way? Hop on the cigar smoke-filled tour bus and travel along the continent with these young punks to fight the law, rock the casbah and more importantly, stay free. Don't forget to Share, Vote and Comment because I love, love, love comments! xx thanks

problematic. | RONNIE RADKE X READER (18+), de Artzee_Dorito

When (Y/N) (L/N) decides to post an expose on the problematic Ronnie Radke to her TikTok, it's no surprise that he doesn't take it too well. He retaliates in an equally offensive video about her, which marks the beginning of an ongoing social media feud between the two. (Y/N) would love nothing more than to keep this animosity online. But, after finding herself at a Falling in Reverse concert to keep a friend company, Ronnie calls her out in-person, humiliating her in front of thousands of fans. This means war, and (Y/N) doesn't intend to back down. But, when his drummer leaves him high and dry, (Y/N) is the only person Ronnie can think of that can offer musical assistance. Not forever, of course. Just temporarily, until he finds a new drummer. So, he makes that call of shame and asks for help. (Y/N) accepts, but she won't make it easy for him. She's going to get revenge for that humiliating debacle back at that concert. Naturally, their work environment is tense because of this. But that type of tension isn't one that just goes away. It builds and builds, until it eventually explodes and turns into something worse.

Warped Tour 2K18, de ThisWillBeTheLASTIME

Hey, this story is how I wanted my Warped Tour to go... my actual Warped Tour this year -2k18- was shitty. Being fourteen, I had to go with an adult. So I went with my friend and her cousin, but they were hella lame. My friend was kinda a poser, and didn't even listen to the music, neither did her cousin, so we waited in line for three hours to stay for two. So I didn't even get to see ATL, BVB, 3oh!3, or MIW, and that was the reason I wanted to go. So let's make this right by writing a sick story about what COULD'VE happened 😊😊😊

Mutilate My Heart, de EmilyGodwin17

Punk rock band Mutilated Arteries has been seventeen-year-old Becca's world (aka obsession) for the last year. When the band schedules a concert in her hometown, she and her best friend Carli are the first ones in line to buy tickets. The night is everything she expects it to be and more, especially after making friends with the new super-cute bassist, Sketch. Becca's mom warns her not to fall for a rock star because rock stars are always on the road - or they die in a plane crash, like her mom's favorite band did twenty-something years ago. But after the band's tour bus breaks down and they're stuck hanging out in Roizen Hills for a week, it's hard for Becca not to fall for Sketch and his caricature drawings and toxic green eyes. Becca knows Sketch is leaving as soon as the bus is fixed, and she can't be his fan-turned-girlfriend anyway because of the lead singer's "No Girlfriends" rule. Plus, there's something strange about the guys that Becca can't quite decipher... like how they won't reveal their real names, their always-changing odd appearances, and the guitarist's obsession with blood and zombies. Still, Becca wants nothing more than for Sketch to mutilate her heart...but it just might not be in a way she expects.
