Younger Avril Didn’t Know Blink 182 From Madonna

Paul Cantin of the Toronto Star profiled the not so wild past of Napanee, Ontario’s Avril Lavigne. “She is not a skateboarder; she is not a punk. She is not from the streets. She is from a middle-class family in Napanee. She is from a very safe neighborhood,” says Cliff Fabri, whose Kingston company, RomanLine Entertainment, squired Lavigne through her early career. As for her punk-pop style, Avril’s early days were more country than rock n’ roll. “All she had experienced, all she knew was country. She didn’t know Blink 182 from Madonna,” says Fabri.
