I had a friend who was truly punk rock, but on the inside. On the outside he was jeans and t-shirt; but he had revolutionary ideas, and just generally SAW the world. I’ve talked to teens with dyed hair and Doc Martins who didn’t know a damn about music. What are you into? Anarchy. Hmmm…do you have meetings? To some people, it’s just a fashion statement. Anyone who’s really into knows it’s about music and can’t be bought at Hot Topic. Go for it. One of the most punk rock people I ever met was a mother who owned a local cd shop. She had a red mohawk and was corralling her two kids (one of whom was in trouble for spitting on the other). She knew her music. She was the authentic thing. I always remember her when I wonder about outgrowing the lifestyle. Don’t be a dipshit teenager and you should be fine. Have fun!

i’m 24 and i’m very happily punk and i’m going to be for many years.
as long as your being true to yourself and making yourself happy then go for it.
but i agree with the guy above, just don’t act like a teenager lol.

and FYI punk is soo not dead. just look around you at night after they changed out of there work clothes and are once again feeling the freedom that is punk.

and i don’t spike my hair either. lol

You are never to old to be punk.
You do, however, get too old to act like a TEENAGE punk rocker.

Be sure to make the distinction

and then…

\m/ rock on
