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:
- We had a lot of fun this week with the upcoming Bad Religion tribute compilation. The organizers have been unveiling songs daily and they've all been the subject of much debate here on the `Org. Check out Cobra Skulls and NOFX's Fat Mike performing "Give You Nothing", Polar Bear Club playing "Better Off Dead", Frank Turner playing "My Poor Friend Me", and Tegan and Sara's version of "Suffer."
- Speaking of Bad Religion, frontman Greg Graffin was recently interviewed by the Scientific American about his new book
- Fat Wreck Chords has announced their first compilation in eight yearsfeaturing music from their entire roster (I'm particularly excited for new Chixdiggit!, how about you?)
- Rancid continues to unveil unreleased videos for old songs, this time featuring "Who Would've Thought"
- Less Than Jake is promising a performance of their album Losing Streak at Riot Fest
- Fletcher Dragge on commented on Jim Lindberg's departure from Pennywise
- Weezer posted their first batch of Memories tour dates
- The Lawrence Arms are touring with White Wives and AM Taxi
With that we hand over this Sunday evening to you, the Punknews community. From that glorious, likely bearded rabble we've see the creation of everything from message boards and Punknews fantasy sports leagues to even a band or two. So talk amongst yourselves and we'll see you Monday…
