THE PUNK ROCK MUSEUM ANNOUNCES GUIDED TOURS WITH PUNK ROCK LEGENDS, NEW OPENING DATE OF MARCH 10, 2023
What makes The Punk Rock Museum different from any other museum? Not only is it owned and operated by the same people whose stories and artifacts make up punk’s absurd and striking history, but also—starting in April—the public can book a guided tour to hear the history directly from the legends of punk rock!
Visitors can look forward to hearing about the first Germs shows from Don Bolles, walk with Roger Miret from Agnostic Front as he tells them about living in a van in the Lower East Side in the early 80s and hear about the crazy meteoric rise to fame from Noodles with The Offspring. Everyone who books one of these tours will hear stories no one else has heard from the people who lived them.
Guided tours will be offered multiple times throughout the day and capacity is limited to 20 people per tour.
Some of the confirmed tour guides include:
- Louiche Mayorga from Suicidal Tendencies
- Noodles from The Offspring
- Stacey Dee from Bad Cop/Bad Cop
- Don Bolles from The Germs/45 Graves
