What-ifs are a dangerous prospect. The dream-like hypotheticals project alternate histories like, "What if Kurt Cobain hadn't died?" and attempt to derail reality for something "better."
I was at a mighty fine BBQ joint in Chantilly, Va., with brothers Mike (guitar) and Chris Taylor (vocals) when Mike dropped a huge what-if on me about 30 minutes into some pre-interview chit-chat: Right before pg. 99 broke up in 2003, the band was booked to record with Shellac's Steve Albini. For five years, pg. 99 (also spelled as "pageninetynine") spewed some of the most chaotic, creative and rebellious punk rock from its base in Sterling, Va. For a moment, it was hard not to dream up how Albini would have captured pg. 99's textured fury, especially after the band's defining 2001 album, Document #8 in its entirety to a sold-out crowd at the Best Friends Day Festival in Richmond, Va. And, on August 27 at the Black Cat in Washington, D.C., pg. 99 will perform another sold-out show with the Baton Rouge sludge-metal masters in Thou , plus Circle Takes the Square, a kindred band who once shared a split 7-inch record with pg. 99 and is currently recording its first album in seven years. Both shows coincide with a couple of vinyl reissues out now on Robotic Empire .
During its first run, pg. 99 would feature six to 14 members at any given time, and when talk of the reunion first began, Chris Taylor said, "If we come back, we have to have three guitar players. We have to make it as absurd as it used to be." At both reunion shows, eight people will cram onstage with Pygmy Lush guitarist Mike Whitman (who also joined us at Willard's BBQ) as the newest member.
Now, it's not as if Chris and Mike Taylor have stopped making music. In the last four years, they've focused their energy on Pygmy Lush, a dark folk-pop band whose punk roots seep through. But the timing of this reunion couldn't be better. After almost a decade of streamlined screamo (a tag that most bands dislike, but which has been attached to pg. 99), there's a renewed interest in the emotional post-hardcore that bands like pg. 99, Orchid, Circle Takes the Square and Majority Rule pioneered, mostly by an audience that was far too young to hear it the first time around.
As we finished up our pulled-pork sandwiches and collard greens, the three of us got into an hour-long conversation about growing older, if pg. 99 would ever consider recording again, and the rejuvenation of a spirit that faded away — including this bit from Chris Taylor just before the digital recorder ran out of space: "The part of being in pg. 99 that I took for granted, but never knew was there, was how young and energetic and basically unstoppable our motivation was.

Quickening – Fetal Movements, Feel Baby Move in Pregnancy
One of the most exciting aspects of pregnancy is feeling your baby’s little kicks and flutters for the first time. Feeling your baby’s movements gives you reassurance that he or she is developing, and it makes you feel closer and more connected to the baby growing inside you.
When Will You Feel Your Baby Move?
Though you didn’t feel your baby’s acrobats in the first trimester, he or she has been moving in the womb since 7 or 8 weeks of pregnancy. You won’t feel your baby’s first kicks and flutters until the second trimester – sometime between 16 and 22 weeks pregnant.
If this is your first pregnancy, you may not feel your baby’s subtle movements (which are called “quickening”) until 22 weeks. Women who have been pregnant before tend to feel their baby’s movements earlier than first-time moms. It’s possible that second-time moms are more able to distinguish their baby’s flutters from other belly rumblings – such as gas and hunger pains. – your placenta is located on the front wall of your uterus – this will cushion your baby’s movements, and you may feel your baby’s movements slightly later.
What Does Quickening (Baby’s First Movements) Feel Like?
The sensation of your baby’s movements may be similar to butterflies fluttering in your stomach, fish swimming around, popcorn popping, or a tumbling motion. At first, you may confuse your baby’s gentle kicks with hunger pains and gas. As your second trimester progresses, you will feel your baby’s movements more frequently, and it will be easier to recognize the difference between your baby’s acrobatics and other belly rumblings. (By the third trimester, your baby’s kicks, jabs, and elbows will be very distinct.)
Try not to worry about how often your baby moves. At first, the kicks and jabs that you experience will be sporadic. You might feel several gentle taps or flutters one day, and one the next. Although your unborn baby continues to move around in your womb, his movements may not be strong enough for you to feel. By the end of the second trimester, his or her kicks should be quite strong.
In the third trimester, you’ll be able to distinguish a regular sleep-wake pattern. You may find that your baby is most active and awake during the nighttime hours, when you’re trying to fall asleep, and he or she may little movements during the daytime. (Did you know that babies dream? They do experience REM sleep, just like you!
