Idolator
If you notice a drop-off in posts today, don't worry, I'm OK; I've probably just gotten lost in a haze of looking for YouTube clips and blog posts recapping this weekend's SP20 festival, which celebrated the 20th-ish anniversary of indie heavyweight Sub Pop. (Matos sent along a blog by a former employee of the label that's proven to be crucial reading.) Above, the reunited proto-grunge act Green River performs "This Town." (Dear Iggy Pop: Please say yes to Jeff Ament's idea for a Stooges/Green River double bill, so I can stop kicking myself, at least until someone uploads yesterday's performance of "Swallow My Pride.")

Maura's right, check out the blog she's linked -- just for the photo of Greg Dulli as hyperFluidfanboy and also the one of Kim Warnick flipping off the camera. (But the Shawn Smith story = equally grand.)
The Green River show was amazing. (I saw every band of the entire festival this weekend.) I never saw them back in the day, so I can't compare THEN and NOW. But Mark's line about how Melvins apparently stole a demo song of theirs was priceless (and of course tongue in cheek.)
