I caught about 3/4 of this. They could have gone more in depth, but for an hour's worth, it was okay. Little tidbits of the things "we" do at shows, and how certain habits/rituals began at shows.

This aired early this morning on MTV2, but I fell asleep before it came on. MTV2 is doing their "Backstage Pass" week again and are showing various shows. Last night before Subterranean, they showed a Yeah Yeah Yeahs show taped at the Fillmore.

Kosmo, you sure about this?  I wasn't able to find it on the Guide.
 
 Also, MTV2 is doing a Social History of (1) Hair, (2) Tattoo, and (3) Piercing marathon on Saturday.

I'm not so sure.  I checked the MTV2 web site and they advertise it, but their on-line guide doesn't list it.  It's not on my TiVo or DirecTV guide either.  I think I'll just record whatever is on at that time and hope that it's FF.

i see what you mean, i think i found it by doing a search on the show name and not checking the online guide... lets hope they show it more often than just last weekend   :eek:
