On August 7, 1999, fans were encouraged to buy copies of Snot's debut CD "Get Some" in an attempt to cause a jump in the charts on what would have been Strait's 31st birthday. The band My Ruin fronted by Tairrie B paid tribute to him with a song called "Rockstar". The Band NOFX mentions Strait in their song "Doornails" in which they pay tribute to deceased punk band members. British band Reuben paid tribute to him and Kurt Cobain in their song "Push".
