Dino Jr. Terminal 5 show - one of Lou Barlow's 'Best Moments'

- Source: Brooklyn Vegan

when i wasn't busy tugging at the loose threads of the fabric of my life, these musical events made me stop for a second and say ' wow, i never thought -that- would happen!' or ' yea, i like that!' #1 dinosaur jr + sebadoh at that portland festival that has an sxsw kind of name nwxnw? pdxnw? .. yes, dinosaur jr and sebadoh shared a stage.. i.e. sebadoh opened for dinosaur jr.. this is significant, to me, because i am in both bands..significant because i was fairly certain it would never be -allowed- to happen..why? because it's too much -me- in an evening , that's why.. because people might forget that J Mascis is the Reason.... that didn't happen, of course.. sebadoh did a rushed set after not playing together for a couple of months, to a smattering of applause, then Dinosaur Jr came on and CRUSHED everyone..the end... i got really drunk afterwards in earnest celebration and puked for the first time in a long while.. anyway, thank you to whomever paid the ungodly sum it took to make the show happen ( i've been lobbying for a show like this for 7 years to no avail ) .. i forget who now but they also set up a storefront to promote the show that included memorabilia from both bands and played dinosaur jr and sebadoh tunes one after another for days..surreal in the utmost.. oh yea..it was Red Bull , they set it up.. bless them and their bizarre and addictive beverage.. #2 dinosaur jr 'you're living all over me' 25 year celebration show , NYC december.. people kept saying 'can you believe it's been 25 years since that record was released??' yes, yes i can.. easily.. so much happened since the release of that record..many bands, more band mates, lotsa fights, lotsa love..children! babies were born in the interim, human children ..so , i -can- believe it ..what REALLY surprised me was Frank Black singing one of the new dinosaur jr tunes ( 'almost there' (? , it really is impossible to figure out the names of J's songs) - the one i like to call the 'birkenstock

Dinosaur Jr: Quarantining The Past: Dinosaur Jr.'s 'Where You Been'

- Source: Prefix Magazine

Where You Been is the best major-label Dinosaur Jr. record, but while it may have been Mascis's songs that got it there, don't discount the shadow of Lou Barlow hanging over this record. 2012 marks 25 years since Dinosaur Jr. put out their landmark album, You're Living All Over Me. It might be the best record (unless it's Bug , good luck deciding) that the original trio of J Mascis, Lou Barlow, and Murph mad together.

"We're going to reissue more stuff. I don't know if that's on the record or not, because I don't keep up with that, but we're definitely going to reissue stuff. As long as that's happening, we're going to keep playing shows. The pace of this year has pretty much put me in a mental institution. It's just been too crazy, it's been too much. And one of the reasons I got burnt out on the band in the first place was I didn't get to do other things I love, like [rock] climbing and stuff like that. And that's the way it's been this year, but our plan this year was to just go after it and do a lot because we were just getting back together. So knowing it was finite, that hadn't bothered me. And that's been the case for all four of us in that sense. So in the future, it's going to be more of a slow burn, and a slower pace. We won't tour as frantically, because we don't have to. We don't need the income, we're just doing it because we like it, and we love each other, and we love the songs. We're going to keep doing it. Our plan for next year is to do maybe 10 weekends spread out over the whole year , that kind of deal. And that should be good. That will open up some time, and it may give us more time to practice and write new songs." -
