Jon sent in some interesting news: "There is a screening
of 1991 - The Year Punk Broke with Sonic Youth and Nirvana. It is showing
this weekend, Saturday May 7 2005 at 7:00 p.m. in St. Louis, MO. at the Webster
University Film Series. What is extra special about the screening is it is being
shown with director Dave Markey's 2005 companion piece (This is Known As) The Blues
Scale which equates to about forty extra minutes of footage of the original film.
Nirvana performs In Bloom though the audio is a little rough. I have to tell
you though, Kurt's solo is blistering in this version of the song. Sonic Youth also
performs 4 more songs and there are plenty more backstage antics, especially with
Sonic's Thurston Moore. The whole series includes The Decline of Western Civilization,
The Year Punk Broke with Blues Scale as the centerpiece, and Instrument.
The series concludes the next weekend with the premiere of the new Flaming Lips documentary
The Fearless Freaks. This is a one night only screening to see Kurt, Krist, and Dave
on the big screen." For Film Series calendar, directions, prices, and times go here.

The time has finally come for another NFC Competition. This one features
quite a unique first prize and the most valueable out of all the prizes
offered in the many competitions we've run over the years. For this, the
12th NFC Competition, the first prize is the authentic Pennyroyal Tea
single. The single was recalled shortly after Kurt died in April 1994 and
it is believed that only a few hundred copies are in circulation around the
world. Together with the Love Buzz 7" this is one of the most sought
after Nirvana collectibles. For a chance to win this single, or one of the two
other prizes, simply enter your name and email in the form and answer a couple
of questions. The competition ends September 1st, 2005.
First Prize: Pennyroyal Tea authentic single (limited edition)
Second Prize: Classic Albums: Nevermind - brand new DVD including promo poster and postcards
Third Prize: NME Originals: Gods of Rock - magazine with a lengthy article about Nirvana
