I think I saw Bearman and Bombay Chutney there (Tuesday night), but it's been many years since I've run into you guys, so I wasn't 100% sure and didn't say anything.

We were there!

Screen printing was $25 for the t-shirt and $10 for a tote the bag and you could choose up to two different designs on them.  There was a choice of the Nirvana setlist on a plate, a schedule from the old club, a black flag flyer and one other flyer who I can't recall right now.

And with all the screens in place the view from the DJ booth wouldn't have been very far ;)

A bit more than the last time I saw them... But still pretty good.

so over on the 930s facebook page, there were several people quite angry saying that black artists weren't represented at all other than a public enemy setlist, bad brains something or the other and like 1 other thing.

i haven't been yet.  thoughts?

edit: that was awesome

To the people of color question..,. There were way more than that represented.   Heck in the hallway outside the downstairs bathrooms,  I counted at least 12 black artists, just there.   I did not keep count for the whole thing, but I think the post you are referencing was a bit hyperbolic ....

Just got home from my 8:00 appointment.  I thoroughly enjoyed it. Thanks, Seth!

Just missed the Big Guy at the book table. Would have definitely asked for a signature in my shiny new book.

I managed to snag a ticket for last night (thanks challenged!) a few highlights:

1) Super fucking cool.

2) Randomly saw Bags at the bar beforehand, who caught my attention ordering "chilled shitty vodka."  Hadn't see her in years and years...great catching up.

3) The rat

4) Walking up the steps and the first thing I see is video of the Jesus Lizard playing the old club.

5) Immediately after getting to thank Seth and shake his hand for the super fucking cool event

6) Immediately after that hearing a group ask "who is that?" in the video.  Told them the Smashing Pumpkins.  Woman says "Oh, I was at that show! Only like 15 people were there!".  And then another ten-ish people all agreed that they were there too.  Weird coincidence, right?  ;)

For a free event, it was nice to drop close to $200 bucks on beers and merch.
