  1. At noon, the Sunday vibe shifts from the crates to the garage. Bob Stei is taking over with a 3-hour deep dive into the 90s Alternative revolution.

    We’re moving past the polished 80s and straight into the distorted heart of the decade. From the massive anthems of Pearl Jam and STP to the Britpop rivalry of Blur vs. Oasis.

  2. #30DaySongChallenge #AlternativeNation Edition Day 14 - An alternative song you'd want played at your WEDDING

    This one is pretty easy for me.

    When my partner & I got married, I DJ’d our own wedding with a series of playlists for each part of the night. Then we gave out a mixtape that represented tracks from the night.

    From there, every year on our anniversary, we make another playlist. We’ve been married 15 years, so that’s 16 mixtapes of music. (link in lemmy post)

    If I had to pick 1 song, it would be the lead off song, Decemberists “The Crane Wife 1 & 2”.

    The Crane Wife story and then album were part of our relationship while we were dating, then the night the Decemberists came to town touring the Crane Wife, that was the night I proposed, then we went to go see them. We still have the concert posters from that night up in our bedroom.

    So yeah. Easy one.
