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:
- The availability (or lack thereof) of free water at the venue Sonar during the otherwise well-received Insubordination Fest has boiled over into a controversy.
- Fucked Up‘s Pink Eyes interviewed the much derided crunkcore act Brokencyde and shockingly didn’t make fun of them
- Gentlemen put down your razors: The Fest 9 has been confirmed for Halloween 2010.
- Madina Lake bassist Matthew Leone was severely injured after intervening in the beating of a woman in Chicago, IL. He’s now recovering and his suspected assailant has been arrested.
- The reunited Blink-182 have hit the studio
- Conor Oberst / Bright Eyes commented on the Arizona boycott in new open letter
- Anti-Flag frontman Justin Sane released the new song “Solidarity In The Face Of Anti-Progressives” inspired by the G20 protests in Toronto.
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…
