From the "someone hasn't done this already?" file: Here's a clip consisting solely of "bizarre indie cameos" from the old Nickelodeon show The Adventures Of Pete & Pete. The creator has posted a list of the cameos on his blog, but surely all of you smartypantses out there can name every special guest in the montage on first sight? [YouTube via The Clog]

ARTIST: Velocity Girl
SONG: "Warm/Crawl," 1992
FIRST APPEARANCE: Sub Pop Singles Club #39
WHY IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN AN A-SIDE: "Warm/Crawl" came from a limited-edition split single that Velocity Girl put out with fellow D.C. indie stalwarts Tsunami. It's almost two songs in one, with a dreamy, soaring first half that gives way to some frantic guitars and a cascade of multitracked Sarah Shannon vocals, and the way those two halves come together pretty much sums up why we still give Copacetic spins after all these years.
