Excuse me?  Reckless drinking and fighting is -not- part of the
tradition of rock and roll.  Its the tradition of drunk assholes.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I didn't hear about lots of drunken
brawling fights at Woodstock '69, only at Woodstock '96 (or whatever
year it was).  With the Vietnam war raging full-tilt, hippies were
into peace and love, not drunken bar fights.  It seems to me that the
reality of being drafted to kill other people with a gun was enough
fighting for them that they didn't need drunken slugfests to liven up
their lives.
