Hello everybody and welcome to 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 saw the 7th anniversary of the death of Ramones frontman Joey Ramone, and we took pause to remember the legend. Garage rocker Jay Reatard reported on a chaotic show in Toronto. As per usual Against Me! was all over the news, producing a “Rock the Vote!” PSA and gaining “Best Punk” accolades from Rolling Stone. Jimmy Gestapo of Murphy’s Law is hosting a punk/hardcore radio station to be featured in the next addition of the Grand Theft Auto video game series. Blink-192 / Plus 44 drummer Travis Barker has settled his suit with Rockstar Beverages. Indianapolis metalcore act Gwen Stacy were robbed in Los Angeles. It looks like the Riot Fest will return this year, look for the Chicago event next October.

We heard a little bit about upcoming releases this week. AFI detailed their next EP. Panic At The Disco is already at work on the follow up to the recent Pretty. Odd. Gearing up to support their next album, the Alkaline Trio have announced tour dates. We heard the first single from Weezer‘s new full length. Goldfinger streamed their new record Hello Destiny. We were also witness to the conceptual crime against humanity known as known as Punk Goes Crunk. On the video front we saw the premiere of NOFX‘s Backstage Passport TV show. Fugazi‘s Ian Mackeye, the Minutemen‘s Mike Watt and Punk Magazine co-founder Legs McNeil appeared in the “I Need That Record” documentary. We saw a live cut of Paint It Black performing at the Sailor Jerry Store as well as a preview of Fall Out Boy‘s upcoming DVD release.

This week we spoke with former Gunmoll principle Mike Hale, now performing as part of In the Red (interview). To top it off this week we were streaming the new full length from In The Red for your previewing pleasure.
