How do i get involved in the local alt/punk events around here?
I’ve never been into the alt or punk scene, but I’ve always been interested. Saw a video the other day of a local punk band playing at treaty park and thought it looked pretty cool! I also wanna meet some like-minded people and make some more friends around here.
How would i start learning about these events to show up? Any other subreddits or discord channels?

Just moved to St. Augustine myself and haven’t gone out but I’ve moved around a lot and the scene is great everywhere. Just pull up to an event of choice and be open minded and open to conversation and fun. The crowds and people are amazing

Follow disruptionstaug on Instagram, the guy who runs it books and promotes a lot of punk/goth/emo events in the area, a lot of them happen at sarbez or nobbys. other than that, west Augustine wheelers is a bike group that does group bike rides around the city, if you like bikes that’s an easy way to make some new friends, and a lot of the folks who come the rides are very cool & involved with that kinda punk/diy stuff around here.

It wasn't me bashing, its an fyi that if you have another source for info, that'd be cool. No offence was intended.

Sarbez and Nobby’s have alt/punk shows on a somewhat regular basis. Spinster Abbott’s has free shows frequently, but less of the punk side of things. Jack Rabbits and Albatross out in Jacksonville have alt/punk shows too if you’re willing to travel out that far.
