Navel Gazing for January 17th, 2010
Hello everybody and welcome to your all-new all-different Navel Gazing: your look back at the week in Punknews. I’m Adam White and I’ll be your guide through some of the most popular, notable, and otherwise attention getting stories of the past seven days. Each and every Punknews story is built from tips contributed by you fine folks, and here’s what got the community talking this week:
- Memphis, TN’s Jay Reatard passed away this week at the age of 29.
- Big D and the Kids Table will be hitting the road with State Radio soon.
- Star Fucking Hipsters have released the new video for the song “3,000 Miles Away”
- Members of Ceremony, Have Heart, Paint It Black and Cruel Hand have formed a straight-edge supergroup called Fuck Drugs
- Off With Their Heads announced two new releases and more tour dates
- The Harvest of Hope Fest will feature Billy Bragg, forgetters, Leatherface and many more
- The Gaslight Anthem titled their new record American Slang
- The Swellers were interviewed on video by a 7 year old.
- These Arms Are Snakes called it quits this week.
With that we hand over this Sunday evening to you, the Punknews community. From that glorious, likely bearded rabble we’ve see the creation of everything from message boards and Punknews fantasy sports leagues to even a band or two. So talk amongst yourselves and we’ll see you Monday…
