How? 
I listen to punk rock on occasion... most of it I can't stand or find boring (which goes for all music types, really)... but some of it is actually among my favorites. 
Are we talking about things like Rise Against and Hollywood Undead?

Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word

I hope you have fun with it, Watson.
Yes, I listen to punk. However, I only listen to select punk. I tend to be eclectic in my taste in music, so I'm not really a fan of any 'genre,' just songs and sometimes bands.
On a side not, Mendlessohn was the first punk rocker and Beethoven the first hardcore rocker. Observe...

At least that's how I picture the evolution of music.

Well, everything old is new again. I imagine neo-punk is coming from a completely different place than original punk. It was a reaction to the times and those times are over - I guess neo-punk is sort of sentimental. Joey, Johnny and Dee Dee Ramone have left their mortal coils and will not come again. You don't really have to be able to sing well to perform, but you're probably too young not to at least do your best (I had never heard rock and roll until I heard the Beatles and I'd never listened to Beethoven until I saw A Clockwork Orange - Now I can't live without them. We evolve.) When is your first gig? Let us know how it goes. Break a leg!

It's not a huge deal since he isn't getting gigs or really doing anything other than making demos right now, but it might be a fun experience for a while. I was told I have a terrible voice, but that I'm good at singing, which is why they wanted me for it. Wish me luck!
Also, to make this worth actual discussion, uh...does anyone here even listen to punk-rock?
EDIT: Now that I think about it, this probably shoul dhave gone in the music section, shouldn't it?
Well, I listen to some punk, but for me, Punk truly died with Frankenchrist.

Not really Adrian.
No one really cares about self promotion here....even less about Watson's aspirations into the music world.
Either way Watson...(been there done that got the DVD) Good luck.

Huge Dead Kennedys, Suicidal Tendencies, and Mucky Pup fan here.
But also other stuff like Hatebreed, Merauder, Dropkick Murphys.
