Started by Ian Mackaye, the lead singer of Minor Threat. Edge kids wore X's on thier hands. The rules of Straight Edge was that you did not have one night stands, you did not drink any form of alcohol, you did not do drugs and you did not smoke. The earlier skinheads were mostly Straight Edge.
Minor Threat was a Straight Edge band. Ian Mackaye amazingly also had a strong part in the creation of emo, except in his time itwas called emocore.
