and one of my favorites from a KEXP show:

Portland, Oregon - 20090207

Standing in a puddle of crushed beer cans after the show the guy next to me asked if I was the one who punched him in the jaw. I smiled and said no . . . . what an amazing show!!!

Slabtown (Portland, Oregon) provided the optimal conditions for a classic Mudhoney performance. I have not attended a rock show that was this authentic in a long time. This show had everything that is synonymous with northwest rock n roll at its finest. General crappy playing conditions, a hammered and psychotic crowd, flying bodies and beer cans, and crowd surges that pushed sections of the audience onto the stage and into floor monitors and mic stands (the stage is 2 inches of the ground).

    Nothing tops Pearl Jam & Mudhoney for me (except Pearl Jam, Mudhoney & Soundgarden reunion). I saw Mudhoney in Toronto last year and talked to Mark Arm after the show. I asked him if they'd like to tour with Pearl Jam again. He said "sure we would. But it's up to Pearl Jam." Apparently they are just waiting to be asked. So PLEASE ASK!!!
    ...And he who forgets will be destined to remember.

    ...I swear I never took it for granted. Just thought of it now.

    Thanks! That's cool Mark said that, and nice to know they would be open to an invitation. It would be awesome to see them play together again. I have been to a number of Mudhoney shows over the past year and they sound great!

    It sounds like you would prefer almost anyone to Mudhoney :-) Ed certainly seems to appreciate the genius of their music. I understand they are not for everyone, but they are a unique and special group of individuals.

    My next choice would be Sonic Youth!
