Ten Great Punk Videos – Vol. 1

Am I too old to still listen to punk and punk-adjacent music? Yes, absolutely. Will that not stop me? No. What would The Lawrence Arms, the Descendents, and High Vis do if old guys like me — wearing Vans, dark zip-up hoodies, and thick black-rimmed glasses — stopped going to their shows? Who would stand in the very back with their earplugs and giant cans of over-priced IPA, gently air-drumming and mouthing the wrong lyrics to themselves? Our absence would be devastating.

To prevent that from happening, I will continue to attend shows (alone) and buy records. In honor of my stance, I will post 10 straight-up bangers each week, a mix of old and new, for all of my aging punks to enjoy. Here’s the first batch in no particular order.
