Sunday Edition: July 24, 2011

Hello everyone and welcome to Navel Gazing: your look back in the week in Punknews. I'm Bryne Yancey
and I'll be your guide through some of the juiciest, most popular and otherwise noteworthy stories from the last seven days. Remember, every Punknews story is built from tips from our wonderful, good-looking readers, so get to submitting. Here's what got the strange, slow and old community talking this week:

• For some reason, folks were very excited about the return of Diesel Boy
• As Dan Vapid talked his new band Dan Vapid and The Cheats, Ben Weasel was likely in his study quietly plotting his next move, as Screeching Weasel booked a Chicago show with an unannounced backing band
• SPIN celebrated the 20th anniversary of Nirvana's Nevermind by letting a bunch of bands "cover" its songs
• This fall's AP Tour looks to double as a Punknews favorite, with Gallows, Title Fight, The Swellers and Sharks joining headliner Four Year Strong on the run
• Hot Water Music debuted their first new song in seven years, "The Fire, The Steel, The Tread"
• NOFX announced plans to release a "fucking terrible" EP from 1984; vinyl completists everywhere replied with a heavy sigh as they removed their debit cards from their wallets
• Dutch beer giant Heineken pulled an ad featuring a lounge-act style cover of Dead Kennedys' "Too Drunk to Fuck," instead choosing to focus their energy on attempting to create a better-tasting beverage

With that, we hand over this Sunday evening to the Punknews community, where anything is possible, from the next amusing-then-overwrought meme, to the creation of bands and message boards, to alienating sports chatter. So talk amongst yourselves, spin some tracks in the Navel Gazing turntable.fm room and we'll see you Monday morning.
