I kept a few screenshots from the old days. Check out this one from September 28, 1998 (complete with vintage Netscape browser action around it)...

Edit: it has the logo in question. I thought this was a person who was crowd-surfing. Yeesh.

I sent an email to the freshmeat team a really long time ago (around 2001?) asking them what the image was in the background of it. If I remember correctly, they said it was an image at Lollapalooza. Unfortunately I don't have the original email.
