Venue: Deck The Hall Ball Location: Seattle, WA, USA Date: February 12, 1995

On February 12, 1995, Sonic Youth rocked the Deck The Hall Ball in Seattle, showcasing their unique blend of noise rock and avant-garde style. This live performance came right after the release of their acclaimed album "Goo" in 1990, and it marked a pivotal moment for the band, solidifying their status in the alternative music scene. By 1995, they had just released "Experimental Jet Set, Trash and No Star," which demonstrated their fearless approach to sound and songwriting. The band's willingness to experiment and embrace unconventional techniques allowed them to stand apart in the grunge-dominated era. Interestingly, this period also highlighted their influence on upcoming musicians, as Sonic Youth became a touchstone for indie rockers and prominent figures in the alternative music landscape.
