    Right on, aw fuck it, your right. I hate fighting with door people anyways. I bet I'm a bigger fan than some of the shmucks that'll be there. I'll just stay home and listen to rehad doll on vinyl, and be content with SP20 this weekend. Fuck VIP.. lol

    Today being my 4 year wedding anniversary I am reminded of meeting my husband 9 years ago and him telling me to pick out a CD to play...I started looking through his CD case and he not only had MLB and Temple of the dog...but, also was the only person other than me that I met who had Green River.....I never went home again : )


    If I knew where it was I would take you there. There's much more than this

    You'd probably get on the wrong bus. Or you'd get on the right bus and take a wrong turn in the opposite direction when you get off at the right stop!

    from Peter's website http://www.ocf.berkeley.edu/~ptn/mudhoney/tourbook/gr.html#7/10/08


    7/10/08 The Sunset Tavern. Seattle, WA (55 min)
    Attendance: 200
    Supporting: The Fluid, The Press Corps
    Soundcheck: Ozzie, Ozzie, P.C.C. (soundcheck possibly incomplete)
    Set: Come on Down, 33 RPM, P.C.C., Ozzie, Baby Help Me..., Unwind, Leech, Queen Bitch, Together We'll Never, Swallow My Pride, New God, 10000 Things, This Town, Ain't Nothing to Do
    Notes: This was billed as a show by The Press Corps, with special guests. In attendance are Guy, Matt, Kim Thayil, and Jack Endino. Green River combines the Steve Turner and Bruce Fairweather eras to create a three-guitar onslaught that can barely be contained by the small-ish Sunset Tavern stage. From stage-left to right it's Steve, Stone, Mark, Jeff and Bruce, with Alex holding down the backline. A couple of people from Pearl Jam's crew are handling set-up, so when either Stone or Steve has a guitar problem midway through the show, he hands it off and gets another one, prompting Bruce to comment, "That's the first time we've had a guitar tech, ever." Things start to get wild during New God when a weekend-warrior mosh pit starts up. After the first chorus, Mark jumps into the crowd and makes his way across the narrow Sunset Tavern to the bar. In a move recollecting his earlier days, he climbs on top of the bar, and while using the rafters to steady himself, walks further into the audience while towering over them and singing. Unfortunately, somewhere in the process his mic gets disconnected and not one note is heard. When they finish the song, he laments, "I sang great during that second verse." Stone then polls the crowd with, "Who wants to hear 10,000 Things?" and gets a lukewarm response. He tells the other guys, "Only four people want to hear it," but they play it anyway.

    Another Review

    The show was really good! I'm incredibly tired now....didn't get home until about 4 AM, and now I'm up for work (at 8 AM). But it was worth it. The Sunset Tavern is a very small club, basically a bar with a stage in the back. It was pretty crowded in there for Green River, who played first. Anyone without a ticket was pretty much screwed. Even Kim Thayil had trouble getting in initially, I was told. Here's the written setlist, which I believe they followed:

    Come On Down
    33 RPM
    PCC
    Ozzie
    Baby Help Me Forget
    Unwind
    Leech
    Queen Bitch
    Together We'll Never
    Swallow My Pride
    New God
    10,000 Things
    This Town
    Ain't Nothin' To Do

    After them, The Press Corps (band with members of many other bands, including Dan Peters) played, then The Fluid.


    and another from a great webzine (with Pictures!) http://10thingszine.blogspot.com/2008/07/green-fucking-river.html

    Insanely awesome secret Sub Pop show tonight with Green River and The Fluid. Both bands far exceeded my expectations. And the kids in the audience totally did not know how to rock. But their shortfalls are not my problem, fucking Mark Arm and Steve Turner... and those dudes from Pearl Jam, totally brought it!

    one more thing, I can't believe there's no enough love for this band here, instead of other side projects like Eddy Clever solo thing and such
