The birthplace
of grunge.
Second announcer:
seattle-Based bands...
Have topped the rock charts
for the past few years.
Nirvana, Pearl Jam,
and Soundgarden
Have sold millions
of records.
Announcer:
independent releases[Static]
A musical movement
centered around seattle,
And a sound and style
came out, they were--
[Static]
The basis
of the generation...
[Stammering]
a--X society.
Woman:
part ofthe grunge movement,
As I understand it,
is the fact
That these kids have
the ability to say
Anything they
want to say,
Express anything
they want to express,
Any anger, any pain,
Any anguish,
any torment,
And they feel
a kinship, a oneness,
That this young man has
been through tragedy...
That this young man has
been through tragedy...

Dd

i'm a simple man
and I speak
with simple words
talk about inclusion,
not exclusion
talk about inclusion,
not exclusion
i sing my song
across these rivers
and valleys
mountains, seas
fields and oceans

i am a teacher
you're a teacher, too
i am a pencil pusher
i am a ditch digger
i am a loser
oh
oh
let's start a riot
walk in the night air
walk in the night air
Remember those
big bubbles that used to
Float through
the middle of town?
[Laughter]
yeah!
These big--Like,
bubbles, man.
They still do.
Yeah. You see them
once in a while.
They've got this big pit
out in the bay
That's like, all--
Like, this weird sh*t
That they--Comes out
of the process,
And--And the way--
The bubbles, they're,
like, this big,
And they would
float around,
And they're bad,
toxic things.
[Laughs] so, the way
to get rid of it
Is they got these
big water sprinklers,
And they just, like,
run sprinklers over it--
out once in a while.
They're huge.
They're like--
The bubble of death.
I went to bothell high school,
Which is, uh,
a suburban hell hole.
Um...
There's a sign
as you enter town.
It says, "welcome to bothell,
for a day or a lifetime."
[Chuckling]
and someone...
Someone--I wish
i had've done it--
But someone erased
the b-O-T at one time,
So it was, "welcome to hell
for a day or a lifetime."
The northwest is where
"flying saucers"--
The term "flying saucers"
was coined.
The northwest is, uh...
wherelouie, louieis from.
The northwest is where--
It's the serial killer
capital of the world.
We have more unsolved
serial killings up here
Than any other place
in the united states.
I mean, the manson family
used to vacation up this way.
This place is weird.
Lot of occult stuff.
All this stuff is a factor
In what happened
in the music.

Man:
I mean,when the weather is crappy,
You don't want
to go outside.
You know, you basically
feel like staying in the house.
And, uh...
It's a very logical thing
To want to go down
into your basement
And, you know, make noise
to take out your frustrations,
Because you can't go outside
And do anything when it's
raining all the time.
don't get off the bus
'cause there ain't
nothing for you here
in my hometown
Man:
is seattlea nice place to live?
It's the best place
to live.
And i've traveled
all over the place,
And I honestly wouldn't live
anywhere else.
It has all the amenities
of a big city.
But...
You know, there's nothing
you're missing out on
By being in seattle
And it's pretty, you know?
There's hills and mountains
and trees and water.
Art chantry:
so all thesepeople come here,
And then there's
all this publicity,
Andnorthern exposure,
andtwin peaks.
And everybody wants
to come up here,
And live the good
yuppie lifestyle,
But all that time,
there's all these people...
That are underneath
that were here first,
And are just starving,
and they're all crazy.
I mean, it's like one of
those end-Of-The-World places.
You can't go no further
and still be in the u.S.
[Guitar music begins]
[Guitar music begins]

In 1980...
i think bands
Stopped coming
to seattle.
Bands never used
to come here,
'Cause they'd go as far
as san francisco
And then not come
all the way up to seattle
Because it wasn't worth it
to play one show.
There were 2,
maybe 2 1/2 clubs
Where you could play
If you were playing
your own music.
Carla:
some people usedto rent halls,
on themselves.
Take tickets, run up,
do the music,
And at the end, pick up
let me call you about it
let me call you about it
woke up this morning
Well, seattle was
really lame.
You know, specifically
in the early eighties,
I mean, seattle was like
It had a fake talking heads,
It had a fake pere ubu,
It had a fake killing joke,
It had all the fake ramones
You know,
and people from bellevue
Singing with
english accents.
Woman:
there was this big,Bands with, uh,
big, fancy guitars,
And, uh, just tons and tons
of hairspray, eyeliner.
See, all the extra-Sleazy
punk rockers
Used to hang out
on first avenue.
There's a donut shop
right there
Which is right next to
the showbox,
Which is right there--
It's a comedy club now.
And that was, like, the big,
uh, punk rock venue.
Art chantry:
opening night,
The very first punk club
in seattle.
This is probably worth...
you know, 3, 400 bucks.
[Guitar music begins]
[Guitar music begins]
solid
solid
action
Nobody was too worried
about success,
Because we knew we were
living in seattle.
You know, it wasn't l.A.
Nobody was gonna come
and sign us.
We played a show,
some small club...
The audience
consisted of...
Members of the other
dozen or so bands
That were playing similar
bills and similar clubs.
[Guitar music begins]
