So I saw Dinosaur Jr for the first time earlier this month. I just happened to be in New York on vacation, so I caught night 2 at Irving Plaza. Needless to say it was a great show. I was right up front at first, but about a third of the way through the show I moved to the back. I just wasn’t in the mood to get the crap beat out of me. They played material from all four albums featuring the original three members, plus Feel The Pain. Also, Just Like Heaven was a very nice surprise.
Anyway, Lou really impressed me. He seemed to be giving 110%. So I decided to check out some Sebadoh once I got home. So far I’ve got III and Bakesale. While III has some good moments, its all over the place. Although I haven’t spent that much time with it. I found Bakesale much more consistent. The first 8 or 9 tracks are phenomenal. I will admit they all are a little repetitive though.
Hopefully Lou will make his way down south sometime soon.
