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 People Must Have Something Good To Read On A Sunday
This week's most popular stories
So you know Chuck Biscuits of
Danzig,
Social Distortion,
Black Flag,
D.O.A. and a half dozen other cool bands? Totally not dead. The internet went crazy a few days ago when a blogger's report of his death
went viral. It turns out Chuck is indeed alive and the blogger was strung along in a good ol' six month long hoax that cumulated in the death announcement. Punknews bears some responsibility in perpetuating that rumour without adequate fact checking and for that we apologize.
From the "actual news" department we had word that the
Suicide Machines would be
reuniting for a benefit show in November.
Split Lip /
Chamberlain announced a
reunion show in New York City.
Bud Gaugh discussed
the future of
Sublime and we got word of the conflict over the usage of the band's name.
Jawbox frontman J. Robbins also recently
addressed rumours that the band would be reuniting for more shows beyond their appearance on Jimmy Fallon. They won't.
The
Lawrence Arms posted a live video of
"Recovering the Opposable Thumb" from their recent anniversary performance. The
Alkaline Trio's
Dan Andriano covered the Larrys'
"The First Eviction Notice" at the same event. The Lawrence Arms also posted the bonus track from their new EP
for free.
