Negative Approach playing NYC with J Mascis' (?) Stooges tribute before Dino Jr shows
Having just played You’re Living All Over Me in full at Riot Fest, Dinosaur Jr are continuing on tour with Negative Approach frontman John Brannon’s band Easy Action. As mentioned, that tour includes two BrooklynVegan-presented NYC shows: Brooklyn Bowl on 10/2 & 10/3 (tickets).
The tour has an off-night the day before the first Brooklyn show, and that night Negative Approach will play a NYC show at The Safari Room at El Cortez (10/1) with Stooges tribute band Ron + Scott. Ron + Scott’s lineup is billed as featuring members of J Mascis and Lou Barlow’s pre-Dinosaur Jr band Deep Wound, and Ron + Scott’s lineup has counted Mascis as a member in the past. Could he be the member of Deep Wound in question?
Ron + Scott will be playing songs exclusively from the first two Stooges albums at this show. Posers and The Minutes are also opening, and there’s an afterparty at the venue with Sheer Terror’s Paul Bearer DJing. Tickets for the Negative Approach show are on sale now.
That’s Negative Approach’s only upcoming show at the moment. All Dinosaur Jr and Easy Action dates are listed below.
Watch Ron + Scott (J Mascis included) play “I Wanna Be Your Dog” earlier this year:
