Paste editor-at-large Jay Sweet paid another visit to Fox 25 in Boston to talk up his favorite bands at this year’s Lollapalooza and Newport Folk festivals, which includes – to quote host Frank Mallicoat - “a little Pearl Jam, too, for some of the older folk.”

In other news, membership to the Pearl Jam Ten Club now gives you access to the Denny’s Senior Menu.

Sweet also highlights OurStage, an online community where users rate emerging artists, of whom the highest ranked can win opportunities to play major festivals like Bumbershoot and CMJ Music Marathon. Attention winners: feel free to rub elbows at these events, but carefully. Osteoporosis affects one out of every four grunge icons.
