oh where does the time go, i ask you? it seems like only yesterday i was feeling up a high school sweetheart of mine, for the first time, on bench near her lake house. that same trip was featured my first foray into the world/work of j mascis and dinosaur jr. my purchases for that fateful trip was both green mind and bug, on tape. i think i listened to “freak scene” at least 50 times during that 3 hour trip - it was play, rewind, play, rewind, etc. i didnt even listen to green mind until the trip back. i was so enthralled with that damn guitar sound, i couldnt pull myself away from it. still to this day i still get all ga-ga when i hear that opening riff of “freak scene.”
of course you already know that they got a new record coming out next week called beyond. you also know that its the original dino jr lineup too, which of course is awesome.
here they are performing an acoustic set at NRK’s studios on 3.20.07
this can now be found here.

Dinosaur Jr. and Lucero are headlining the Westword Music Fest June 16th in Denver. Only 10 bucks!!!!!
I really liked the video for “Feel the pain”, where they’re bopping people on the head with golf balls…love the song too!
Not sure if you like him, but I just posted a link to a great Jeff Healey bootleg (notthatyoung.blogspot.com), who can play guitar with the best of them!
is that jeff healey, as in angel eyes jeff healey? that song is great
i loved the one jeff healey record. i will definitely check it out. thanks steve! where are you seen them matt? i missed em this go around, hopefully they will be back around.
they’re playing this tiny ass club at the end of may (the triple rock). holds maybe 300 people i think. i plan on leaving there completely deaf
