It's Sunday January 1st, 2007. Ok... first Navel Gazing of the year. Can't blow this intro. It's got to be funny, topical, and include some sort of vague yet clever reference that only myself and maybe Justin will understand. Definitely don't talk about the strange weather because you already did that. Don't mention the year end lists since we talked about those last week. Anything that provokes the commenters is a bonus. Easy, but a bonus. The people must have something good to read on a Sunday The first week of the year brought some great news for fans of Naked Raygun, as the influential Chicago punk rock band announced that they were "back for good." punk icons NOFX announced that they'd perform several records in their entirety on next week's Hollywood shows. Look for performances of The Decline, punk In Drublic, White Trash, Two Heebs, and a Bean, and So Long and Thanks for all the Shoes on various evenings. Next week the new Lifetime single arrives, you may have heard of them. Both The Hives and Bad Religion are working on new records. The Swedish band is in the studio now while the seminal Californian punks will hit the studio next month for a rumored June release. Taking Back Sunday have announced an appearance on Canadian drama Degrassi. Speaking of Canuckistan, there's been some recent controversy over how content rules fail to support indie artists. Finally there's been some chatter that The Police may reunite. Our Video Of The Week featured a performance and interview of The Draft live in Virginia Beach, VA. Tune in next week for part two of the feature on the Gainesville band. Our MP3 Of The Week feature returned this week with a track from Lemuria.
