B52s First Performance on SNL
Recommended by A Side of Ranch: when I dip, you dip, we dip
Members of Nirvana recalled the moment they saw this live performance of Rock Lobster on SNL as a fundamental, ocean-parting moment of their young lives. Growing up in the 'burbs and sticks respectively, it was the first time they'd encountered this potent mix of queerness and camp and face-melting rock shennanigans.
The rest of this recommendation is only available to paid members.

“It wasn’t obvious to me how punk the B-52s were until I saw them on video. They have a lot of shared DNA with The Cramps.”
