May is stacked at The Punk Rock Museum. We’re kicking off a summer residency of NOFX’s 40 Years of Fuckin’ Updocumentary with bi-weekly Friday night screenings starting May 1st—complete with special appearances, guided tours, and Q&As from Karina Denike and Smelly. Later in the month, Todd Morse and Cone McCaslin bring their long-running project Operation MD into the building for a one-day event of music, stories, and a listening party celebrating their cult-favorite release. On top of that, Three Star Punk Bar keeps the weekends loud with free live shows every Saturday, and we’re gearing up for the opening of Tiki Punk 2 in June—an art show exploring the shared rebellious spirit of punk and tiki culture. Safe to say, there’s no slow nights around here.

11:00 PM – Doors open for the midnight screening of 40 Years of Fuckin’ Up

40 Years of Fuckin' Up is Spinal Tap, but real. It’s a film about the infamous, fairly unfamous, and beloved punk rock band NOFX. This is the unbelievable story about how a group of untalented, drug-addled teenage punks somehow became the most successful independent band in history. And they did it haphazardly all on their own.

“Most people wouldn’t be ok with releasing a film that shows footage of getting whipped in their dungeon, or their drug use for the past 20 years, or dressing up like a cheap rubber whore, or the ambulance ride when they were naked while puking and shitting blood… I’m not like most people.”

- Fat Mike.
