I think it’s particuliarly good for new fans, but in all honestly, I doubt it if I will buy it. I own every other album, so I’ve already got every song that’s going to be on it.
Sounds like J has been busy despite his injuries, if he’s already got 7 new songs written, can’t wait to hear ’em.
My faves in no particuliar order:
Butthole Surfers–Locust Abortian Technician
Sonic Youth–Confusion is Sex/Kill Yr. Idols
Nirvana–Bleach, In Utero, Incesticide, Unplugged
Dino Jr.–Green Mind, Where you been, Bug, You’re living all over me
J. Mascis–Martin & Me
Primus–Frizzle Fry, Seas of Cheese
Melvins–Maggot
Clutch–Clutch & Elephant Riders
Fear Factory–Demanufacture, ObsoleteI’m sure there are others I can’t think of right now.
I’ve only seen J. twice. The first was with Dino Jr. at Lollapalooza in Nashville. The second was recently on the current tour in St. Pete. Both are certainly very memorable. Out of all the bands on the Lollapalooza bill that year, I have to say that I enjoyed Dino the most. I remember baking in the sun and J. simply shredding it up. It was absolutely mesmerizing. I wish I could go back in time and live it all over again.

Nick,
That’s funny that you mentioned your friend likes to grab setlists. Someone at that show I went to jumped on the stage and grabbed the setlist, then tried to grab a microphone. Mike Watt mentioned something about it in his tour diaries, that the crowd took care of it. I was one of the crowd members that stepped up. I was concerned they might stop the show. That group was harrassing J. most of the night. I didn’t want them to end the show because of a few A#$holes. I hadn’t seen J. since ’93 and no way were those punks ruining my evening. After several of us scorned them, they stopped messing with J. You could tell he was bothered by them, but he didn’t confront them or anything. I even noticed that he through a pick at one of them later in the show because they were asking for it. I thought that was pretty big of J., if I was him, I would have ignored them, but even though they taunted him, he still filled their requests, what a heck of a guy.
Thanks guys. I was fortunate enough to make it up to the front and center that night. When the show was over, George handed me his drumstick. I thought that was extremely cool. He seen me singing along to all the songs so I guess that’s why he handed it to me instead of tossing it. Then I got one of J’s picks from their roadie. That something I’ve never cared about or even tried to get, but I must say I was very stoked when that happened.
