im starting to really hate life to be honest with ya

I'll make you some dvd's if that'll help??

that would be sweet! i knew a tour was coming up around this time and i knew i was not going to be able to go so thats one of the reasons i have not been around.

The reprint Houdini shirts and the tour posters.  That was it.

That was so disappointing. I was expecting some cool merch for their 25th anniversary!

saying you like grunge is like saying you like ragtime or disco or big band.  its a genre that was destined to die.

or, in other words, a silly fad with no substance.   
it's fine and dandy with me that kids went to see green river. but not even staying to see a dynamic, influential, and much more valid band such as the melvins?

also, this is my 2 cents on this: of course anyone who says they're a grunge fan is an idiot, becuase since when is grunge even a legitimate genre? Thats like saying youre a death doom fan or something equally stupid - the label just makes no sense at all. And now its being spawned off into more bullshit genres like post grunge. I could go on forever about this.  As for the lineup for this show, I think it was a good choice to put GR and the Melvins together for their 25th anniversary becuase of all their history with Deep Six and everything - Green River is just a novelty to see if anything. In a way its cool to look back on the past of the members of the band as well.

so what are the official genres of music?  maybe this will make it easier for people to understand

my personal favorite  is the list of calypso-like genres

Randy Johnson

I didn't know Big Unit was a Melvins fan!

I watched Randy pitch against the Mariners on TV at Pikes Place Brewery May 22. I was waiting for the Melvins to play the Showbox 21 + show.

With the Giants in town he could have showed up after the Friday or Saturday shows.
