    Very cool collections from so many bands. The museum is a lot larger than it looks from the outside. Well worth the price of admission. Especially for locals! My teenage son enjoyed it even more than me. Shame on me for not visiting sooner.

    I had an amazing experience getting tattooed by Alex Tattooer, one of the featured artists at the Punk Rock Museum. He’s an incredible Japanese traditional tattoo artist—professional, talented, and truly one of the best in town. Highly recommend checking out his work!

    The museum was fantastic and the folks there are so kind, we loved seeing all the different punk memorabilia. Wish Stiff Little Fingers stuff was not bundled with the German punk. Had a TERRIBLE experience with the tattoo guy Alex who was going to do a super meaningful tattoo for my husband but had us meet up at Scorpion Moon tattoo at 1:00 on the day before we were going to leave Las Vegas. After many attempts to reach Alex for an hour before the appointment he was a no show. Finally at 1:00 he called and told us he had a hard time getting up this morning because his throat hurt. It would have been nice to know that at 10 or 11am So disappointing and heartbreaking. The other folks at the museum were so very kind to us that he just didn’t really fit with their vibe. Go to the museum but stay away from a tattoo artist named Alex

    We took a guided tour at the Punk Rock Museum with Karina from Dance Hall Crashers and it was awesome. The guided tour lasted about 2 hours and if you have the chance to do a guided tour with a punk rock celebrity it's totally worth it. We will definitely be going back for a self guided tour next time to have more time to explore on our own. The jam room was awesome, they had dozens of amps and guitars that belonged to and were used by punk bands, and they even had Wesley Willis's keyboard available to play. Rock N Roll McDonald's Karaoke has never been so much fun.

    During my four-day stay in Las Vegas, I experienced this amazing museum twice. My dream of coming here came true. Countless incredible exhibits related to Johnny Thunders, Joe Strummer, Mike Ness, and the punk rock heroes I idolized. The bands I grew up listening to: RANCID and NOFX! My country's heroes, Hi-STANDARD. It was truly amazing. But if I'm being greedy, I wish they had more exhibits. I love bands like Strike Anywhere, Lifetime,Dillinger Four, Banner Pilot, and others too. Most of the staff were kind and friendly. The Guitar Room was an overwhelming experience. Tim, Cheetah, and Zach played guitar—it was truly an unbelievable experience. Thank you to all the staff for your heartfelt service. The guy at the bar did a fantastic job. The woman at the gift shop who gave me a poster as a souvenir was very kind. I genuinely enjoyed myself. As mentioned in other reviews, not all staff members are like that. But I understand that's partly because my English isn't great, and it also depends on individual personalities. The Punk Rock Museum was the best museum I've ever been to.
