Share your story!
“We’re building a living archive of the Florida punk scene. Your stories, your flyers, your show footage—it’s time we tell it ourselves. Before it gets lost.”
Before there was an internet to document it, there was Stevie Stiletto and the raw, fearless punk shows that sparked a movement in Jacksonville. If you moshed in those early pits or blasted their tapes on your boom box, you hold a piece of punk history. Upload your story or that old flyer to the JaxPunx History Project and let’s preserve the legend!
Tell some stories about the punks you knew who are no longer with us.
Interview your friends.
This is not the Rob Society or Brenda Kato show. We will gladly interview you but you can also use your smart phone to record an interview and then upload it to our community. Please do your best to interview people now before they cross over. Tomorrow is not promised. We have already lost so many awesome punks who were down to record their interview but died before doing so.
Join our community.
Use our community to promote shows, bands, artists, and events. Upload your old photos and flyers. It’s important to create this archive off of Facebook and platforms that are not under our control. This archive will live on my server for as long as I am around and we are looking into how to preserve it after I am gone.
