I caught about 3/4 of this. They could have gone more in depth, but for an hour's worth, it was okay. Little tidbits of the things "we" do at shows, and how certain habits/rituals began at shows.

This aired early this morning on MTV2, but I fell asleep before it came on. MTV2 is doing their "Backstage Pass" week again and are showing various shows. Last night before Subterranean, they showed a Yeah Yeah Yeahs show taped at the Fillmore.
i didn't like the social history of concerts thing….i missed the beginning but i thought it was stupid. some of them are the people you don't like at concerts…

Kosmo, you sure about this? I wasn't able to find it on the Guide.

Also, MTV2 is doing a Social History of (1) Hair, (2) Tattoo, and (3) Piercing marathon on Saturday.
hmmm thats the way it was listed the other day… maybe their guides had the dates screwed up.

I'm not so sure. I checked the MTV2 web site and they advertise it, but their on-line guide doesn't list it. It's not on my TiVo or DirecTV guide either. I think I'll just record whatever is on at that time and hope that it's FF.
i see what you mean, i think i found it by doing a search on the show name and not checking the online guide… lets hope they show it more often than just last weekend :eek:
