I never got into screaming trees, pixies, or any kinda music like that
I got my start in Seattle doing grudge videos and knew a bunch of the guys in bands as I was a bartender at a place called "The Crocodile' and another call the ''ReBar''... Mark was one of the best patrons and a black out drunk sadly.
The guy I know best is Mark Arm of Mudhoney and Greenriver..he's still this side of the dirt thankfully
I'm actually surprised Mark made it this long.

This "Mad Season" video is epic..it was a trip growing up in Seattle during that period.

Hope you're doing well Fins.

I never was that big in the Seattle music scene (i like the big bands that made it out of there) but I will admit that the soundtrack from the movie "Singles" is one of the best movie soundtracks ever!!

Great soundtrack ..I tried getting on that movie as crew but I ended up doing 5 season on a TV show called Northern Exposure shot just outside of Seattle instead.
sorta fun...
I love music a bunch of different types..I collect vinyl.

Yep, in Dallas til Saturday..Daughter just got engaged. Celebrating with her. Fucking cold here.

Grunge scene was the best back in the day.. Probably don't have the stories you have. But was a big part of my crew back then
