After the film’s debut, 300 party-goers celebrated the film’s release at Sidecar with live performances from a NO ROOM FOR ROCKSTARS featured band, Forever Came Calling, and punk veterans Against Me!, who will be among the top acts at this year’s Vans Warped Tour.

Now partnered with Cinedigm, Vans releases the film in select theaters across the country in an exclusive engagement on Thursday, March 1 so fans can experience a behind-the-curtain view of the Vans Warped Tour as never before.
NO ROOM FOR ROCKSTARS
From the team responsible for the acclaimed DOGTOWN AND Z-BOYS, NO ROOM FOR ROCKSTARS is a film thatresonates beyond tour and punk rock fans to anyone seeking out the true stories of rock and roll. For 17 years, the Vans Warped Tour has been a punk rock juggernaut, a misfit circus crisscrossing North America every summer as a wandering minstrel show for youth culture.
Embracing a powerful, unifying ethic created by its founder Kevin Lyman, the tour has grown and prospered as the music industry itself imploded and continuesto sift through the rubble in search of a new way forward. Along the way, Warped has provided a launching pad for a dizzying array of talent, from Green Day and Blink 182 to Ice-T, Eminem and No Doubt, along with perennialpunk legends such as Pennywise, All, Bouncing Souls and Bad Religion.
With more than 300 hours of film shot during the 2010 tour, NO ROOM FOR ROCKSTARS documents the true stories of modern era rock and roll from every possible angle. The film is accompanied by a blazing soundtrack of Vans Warped Tour all-time greatest hits.
The film is directed by Parris Patton and produced by Stacy Peralta and Agi Orsi, with Cecy Rangel as co-producer and Doug Palladini as executive producer. Josh Salzman served as director of photography, and Joshua Altman as editor along with Patton.
Theater locations will be announced in the coming weeks at www.noroomforrockstars.com.
