Dinosaur Jr on reuniting & stuff
"So aside from promoting the re-release of their first three albums, why is Dinosaur Jr. back? Perhaps it has something to do with their frustration over the current state of music. "It seems like mediocrity is OK now. I just wish people would be better, or if they weren't better, that they wouldn't play," says Mascis. "It's so hip to be in a band now, it's like a fad or something, and it bums me out," explains Murph. "Because we come from a school where you try to do your best at it, and you try to put everything you have into it and make it worthwhile.""
"...if you're unable to score tickets to their sure to be sold-out show at Central Park SummerStage on July 14, don't worry—anyone within a five-mile radius should have no trouble hearing them."

Doesn't Summerstage have a notoriously quiet sound system? (I think it's so as not to offend the residents of the rather expensive buildings near the park)

Saw them at the London Astoria last month - man they were disapointing..... apart from Freakscene it was actually quite embarrassing. Hope for your sake that they have managed a few more rehearsals since then.

they didn't play at the astoria. they played at the forum. and i highly doubt that it was embarrassing. maybe you are just a fucking retard that has a giant penis stuck in his ear.
