“Scotty Doesn’t Know” from
EuroTrip
It’s hard to believe that this isn’t an angsty breakup anthem from a legendary
Warped Tour act, but “Scotty Doesn’t Know” was a punk-rock track written just for 2004’s
EuroTrip. It’s performed by a band called Lustra, which is fronted by a bald-headed
Matt Damon. As far as we’re concerned, it’s a true cinematic masterpiece.
“Take Me Away” from
Pink Slip’s rendition of “Take Me Away” at the
House of Blues is every high school punk band’s dream come true. The song goes hard, the bass is catchy and it’s filled with attitude. There’s not much more we can ask for.
Activism Matters: Vans Steps Up for Black Artists
Feb 17, 2021
The iconic brand Vans has carved out a unique place in fashion history by supporting the cultural profile of skaters, rockers and others who might otherwise go unnoticed. In the process, though, racial representation has been neglected. Now, in the wake of the Black Lives Matter protests of 2020, the company is making a new effort to reach out and do its part raise the voices of Black artists and professionals.
Making a wider space for racial representation
Since its beginnings in 1966, Vans has been associated with a side of youth culture and creative expression that is dominated by white males. The company’s connection with skateboarding and BMX is legendary, and its sponsorship of the long running Warped Tour has earned it a place in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. These fields are not exclusionary, but the overall effect has been to wash diversity into the backwaters of cultural phenomena.
