"My mom organized the show. What was meant to happen was my band Sebadoh was supposed to play, and then J was gonna play after us, like acoustic, and then Sonic Youth. But leading up to the show, my mom started giving me these annoying phone calls, like, ‘Lou, you know, it would be really, really nice if you and J played together… Maybe there could be a Dinosaur reunion…’ And I’m like, ‘Mom, there can’t be, it’s just impossible. There’s no way that’s gonna happen.’ But the show went on, and it was at this big place, and it was totally packed. And while J did his solo acoustic thing, the two other members of Deep Wound were also backstage, and basically someone was running around going, ‘Come on, you guys! You’ve gotta do this!’ And we just really brainstormed, like, ‘What could we do so that as J’s walking offstage we just tell him to go sit behind the drums and play a song?’ It took us like ten, twenty minutes, and finally – ‘Ah!’ – we had one song that, like, had four chords, a mid-tempo punk song…and as J was coming off we’re like, ‘We’re gonna play ‘Video Prick’!’ And J went right behind Steve Shelley’s drums, and immediately kicked into the beginning of the song, and it was great!"
"It was alright," Mascis mumbles, when asked. "Maybe we need to take Lou’s mom on the road [with Dinosaur Jr], just to keep things together."
OMG! LMFAO!
