 | | At the wildly liberal college Pavitt immersed himself in the local scene, working at the campus radio station, KAOS, and as an intern at OP magazine, while claiming to earn a degree in punk rock from the college. |
 | | Pavitt's idea of forming an independent label to empower the local bands was starting to take shape and later the same year, with local promoter Jonathan Poneman enlisted as co-partner, Sub Pop officially released its first album, Green River's Dry As A Bone EP. |
 | | Pavitt used the publicity and capitol to strengthen his label and, always concerned about local scenes, began signing bands outside of the Seattle area such as D.C's Velocity Girl and the Afghan Whigs from Cincinnati. |
