HawkbitAlpha Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Welcome back to the mixing zone, my fellow SpongeBobbies, for the 17th edition of the SBC Community Mixtape! I hope y'all are ready for the Day of Black Sun today, but while the US is looking to the sky for the upcoming eclipse, we're once again firing up the good old PokeBlock blender of music to make our next combined concoction. This time, it's going to be with one of our most out-there themes yet, as we'll be... ROCKIN' THE BOWERY Allow me to introduce all of you to a little hole in the wall, previously located at 315 Bowery in NYC's East Village, called CBGB. Or, rather, I'll let the main character from the 2009 movie Bandslam explain: "CBGB: the nerve center of everything that mattered in music in the past 40 years. [...] Birthplace of punk! The Ramones, Patti Smith... Do you know how many times she must have spit on this floor? Bad Brains... Without CBGB, there'd be no Sex Pistols or The Clash, so U2 doesn't get inspired to form a band in Ireland. And the Killers don't hear U2 in Vegas, and decide to pick up guitars... The list is endless!" More to the point: CBGB was a famed music club in NYC that was the epicenter of punk and new wave. Just about every band you can think of from those particular scenes played there at some point. It closed in 2006, and has since been turned into a men's fashion store, but the music lives on. Can you tell where I'm going with this? The assignment for everyone this time is to find and add songs by artists that are known to have played at CBGB during its over 40-year lifespan. That list of artists is quite extensive, and to that end, I've taken the time to document them in the spoiler tab below: Spoiler This list of artists is taken from the most comprehensive source I could find, an archive site called CBGB Online. Since this catalogues every single band that's played at the club, many of them acts local to NYC, a lot of these will be far more obscure than others. This also may not be a fully comprehensive list. If there's an artist you want to add who isn't in this list, but who you can find evidence of having performed at CBGB, let me know. 10,000 Maniacs 3 Doors Down 7 Year Bitch 11th Dream Day AC/DC Afghan Whigs Against Me! - taken by Steel Agnostic Front Alan Jackson Alan Lanier Alex Chilton Alkaline Trio Angry Samoans Ani DiFranco Annie Golden Anthrax Atari Teenage Riot The B-52s Babes In Toyland Baby Moon Bad Brains Bad Religion Bark Market Battalion of Saints Beastie Boys Ben Taylor Better Than Ezra Big and Rich Big Dipper Big Fat Pet Clams From Outer Space Billy Bragg Billy Corgan Biohazard Birdland The Black Crowes Black Jack Train The Bloodless Pharaohs Blondie Blues Traveler Body Count Borbetormagus Boredoms Boss Hog Breakfast Club The Breeders The Bronx Bruce Dickinson Bruce Springsteen Burn It Down Bush Bush Tetras Butthole Surfers Camper Van Beethoven Cardinal Woolsey The Cars Certain General Cheap Trick Cheap Perfume Chocolate Genius Chris Cornell Chris Stamey Chris Whitley Chrome Cranks Cibo Matto Circle Jerks Circus of Power CIV CKY Clutch The Colors Come Contortions Cop Shoot Cop Corrosion of Conformity - taken by Hawk Cowboy Junkies Cracker The Cramps Crisis Cro-Mags Crossfire Choir Crowded House Crumbsuckers The Cryers D Generation The Damned Dandy Warhols Dashboard Confessional Dave Matthews Band David Byrne David Johansen Davy Jones Dead Boys Dead Kennedys Dead Milkmen Deaf School Deadspot Defex Delinquents The Devil Wears Prada The Dickies The Dictators Didjits Dinosaur Jr. Disturbed Divine DNA with Arto Lindsay Don Caballero Down by Law Dream Syndicate Drive In Cryin Dripping Goss Drunk Tank Dumptruck Eddie Paul and the Make Eddie and the Hot Rods Eddie Vedder Edith Massey Elephant's Memory Elvis Costello Erasers Eruogression Everclear Eyehategod Face to Face False Prophets Fastball The Fat Lady Sings The Feelies Fiction Plane Fight Fire Bug Fishbone Fish Dog Flaming Lips Fleshtones Flipper Flyleaf Foetus Fossil Fuel Gang of Four Gavin Rossdale Geezer Butler George Thorogood Georgia Satellites Giant Sand Giant Metal Insects Gibson Bros Gin Blossoms Girls Against Boys Glass Jaw Glen Buxton Go Betweens God is My Co-Pilot Godsmack Goldfinger Goo Goo Dolls Good Charlotte The Good Rats Gorilla Biscuits Government Issue Great Kat Green Apple QS Green Day- taken by Steel Guns N Roses Gumball The Gun Club Guster Hank Williams III Happy Mondays Headhunters The Heartbreakers Helen Wheels Helmet Henry Rollins Heroine Sheiks The Hives Hole Ian McCullough Ice-T Indigo Girls In Flames Interpol Iron Prostate J Masics Jackyl The Jam James Blood Ulmer Jayne County Jayhawks Jawbox Jeff Buckley Jello Biafra Jesse Malin The Jesus Lizard Jim Lauderdale Jimmie Dale Gilmore Joan Jett Joan Osbourne Joe Cool Joe Jackson - taken by Rebel John Belushi John Cale Johnny Thunders Jonathan Richman and the Modern Lovers Jon Spencer Blues Explosion Judge Juliana Hatfield Karen Black Kiss It Goodbye KMFDM The Knack- taken by Rebel Korn Kustomized L.A.

I'll try and keep track of them in the list above. To balance out the above, you can only have a maximum of six different artists in your submission. Try to post your submissions using a Spotify playlist. If this is not possible for you, at least make sure that all of your submissions are available on Spotify. Joke/troll entries can and most likely will be excluded. No repeat entries (can't submit the same thing as somebody else). Tentative deadline for submissions is Saturday, April 13th. Now, can someone show me how to sneak into the secret abandoned CBGB bathrooms? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SBManiac Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 I decided to compile this one off of actual live recordings of each artist, though sadly, none were recorded at CGBG's. (HAH! I did manage to get one from Teenage Jesus and the Jerks lmao). You still get ZERO points for guessing why I chose "Life During Wartime" specifically 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
