What Makes Punk More Than Just Hot Skinny Guys in Vinyl Pants Or Blue Jeans?
When Iāve led tours in the past, Iāve focused on more than just my own story. Punk wasnāt created by a few hot, skinny guys in vinyl pants and torn shirts sparking a cultural revolution in the ā70s. Punk is an energyāa movement that swept through and changed everything. It didnāt start in the ā70s. Iād argue it began before World War II, gained momentum through post-colonial England (God Save the Queen / New Rose), and drew energy from post-capitalist America during the Vietnam War. From politics to psychology, philosophy to artāand, of course, musicāpunk rocked the world to its core.

Who Gets to Tell the Story of Punk Rock?
But hereās the thing: Punk is about breaking systems, yet whose voices are included in these stories?
- Who gets to be in the archives?
- Whose voices are heard, and whose are left out?
Itās time we ask ourselves these questions when we visit spaces like the Punk Rock Museum. Can we live with the irony of a Punk Museum? Isnāt putting punk in a museum inherently un-punk? Can a museum like this truly capture and portray the raw, rebellious energy of punk through āstuffā?
Womenās History Month: Do We Still Need It in Punk Rock?
š¤ This March, in honor of Womenās History Month, Iām diving headfirst into these questionsāand I need YOUR HELP. Do we still need to put womenās involvement at the forefront just to stay relevant?
“Why the Fuck Do We Even Need a Womenās History Month in Punk Rock?”
Letās tackle this head-on. Iām not scaredāare you?
Questions Weāll Explore During the Tour
š„ Here are some of the key questions weāll dig into together:
- Who gets written into punk rock historyāand who gets left out? And why?
- Is the museum doing a good job of telling punkās story and including its diverse voices?
- What barriers have women broken to make space in the punk scene?
- How have womenās contributions redefined punkās rebellious spiritāon stage and behind the scenes?

Why Womenās Contributions to Punk Rock Matter
š¤ Women in punk werenāt just participantsāthey were creators, instigators, and innovators who reshaped the genre. Letās challenge the narratives that sideline their contributions and amplify the voices of the women who built punk rock from the fucking ground up. Bring your curiosity, your questions, and maybe a little attitudeāweāll celebrate, question, and rebel together.
