What is the differences between punk rock picnic and punk rock gig?

There is no difference really, between a punk rock picnic and a punk rock gig. Both of them are punk rock festivals, which means that there is lots of people coming to see it, bands performing live, people having fun, etc. The only difference might be that, at a punk rock picnic, there are some areas where people can sit and eat, whereas at a punk rock gig you can still eat, but you mostly stand up and do the pogo/moshing dance with the crowd, so that can be the only difference.

Difference between Punk rock and alternative rock?

alternative is basically anything new that rips off any one, or multiple syles of any other music. Actually, "alternative" is what happened when the hardcore Punk sound flopped commercially and the garage bands flailed haplessly around, looking for something, anything to take its place. Now Green Day is a successful commercial Punk band that makes millions, and a group like the White Stripes who have a "semi-Punk" sound are considered "Alternative." Alternative Rock is just a name for ex-punksters trying to come up with something new-sounding, yet somewhat as dynamic as Punk Rock. Usually they fail.
