The Punk Rock Museum is the world’s most comprehensive attraction dedicated to the history of the music, culture, and absurdity of punk rock. Located in Las Vegas, it houses artifacts and memorabilia from across the world’s punk scene—such as handwritten lyrics, instruments, clothing, photos, flyers, and artwork.
Encompassing 12,000 square feet at 1422 Western Ave, between the Las Vegas Strip and Downtown, the museum celebrates the genre’s substantial cultural impact over the last half-century. This year’s February tour guides are David J (Bauhaus / Love and Rockets), Tony Reflex (Adolescents), Chris DeMakes (Less Than Jake), Dez Cadena (Black Flag / Misfits), Ara Babajian (Slackers / Leftöver Crack) and Frank Zummo (Sum 41).
February 27th – March 1st:
Renowned drummer and author Frank Zummo is set to host a three-day series of exclusive book-tour events at The Punk Rock Museum on February 27th, February 28th, and March 1st. Fans will have the opportunity to experience intimate, behind-the-scenes access to punk-rock history while celebrating the release of Zummo’s new book, ‘Unbreakable Rhythm’.
Throughout the three-day takeover, Zummo will lead two guided tours daily, scheduled for 12:30 PM and 4:00 PM, offering attendees a personal look into the museum’s legendary collection through the eyes of one of punk’s most dynamic and influential drummers.

Artifact of the month: Steven Leckie’s (Viletones) gold jacket.
The February Artifact Of The Month is Steven Leckie’s gold jacket on loan from KC Carlisle. Steven Leckie (September 19, 1957 – June 12, 2025) was the Viletones lead singer from Toronto, Canada.
Description from KC: “Before Steven died, he gifted me his vintage gold jacket, a true passing of the torch. Steven wore it on stage, then lent it to Stiv Bators, who also performed in it (during Lords of the New Church). Stiv returned it, and Stevenlater lent it to Johnny Thunders, who wore it on a British tour. The jacket still carries a worn mark on one shoulder from Johnny’s guitar strap.”
