I think the repeated part that Lou yells is "I’m starving" but to be honest, I don’t usually pay much attention to lyrics.
I really dig Lou’s new song, with its swingin’ 60s pop done sludgy vibe…I especially like the chorus with the ascending guitar line and the "back to your heart"
Not that J’s song is BAD–because it’s great too. It sounds like they could have a radio hit on their hands with that one. Same sort of anthemic style as classics like Freak Scene and the Wagon, updated for today’s slacker generation
I saved it by right-clicking the little grey bar (very technical terminology) with the "play" symbol on it. That should work for you too.
"No Bones" is my personal favorite. "Don’t" is great too, but I’m not sure if it counts since the entire song is really just several multi-tracked solos.
I think the ones that I saw are all on here: http://www.bandmerch.com/java2/BandMerch/dinosaurjr/”>http://www.bandmerch.com/java2/BandMerch/dinosaurjr/
I got the "J Lou Murph" one
Hi there, I’m 17 and I would assume the average age at the show was 20-something.
I absolutely hated the opener. The guitarist seemed really pretentious, acting like he was playing something technically demanding (though I guess even if he played well it would be hard to compete with J). It seemed like a joke but it was a noisy joke, so after like ten minutes I went back by the water cooler and made a flower sculpture out of plastic cups. Some people probably liked them, but they weren’t really my cup of tea.
But I digress…Dinosaur Jr was AMAZING. I’d only seen Youtube videos and stuff before and I was afraid the vocals were going to be sloppy or something, but they all played and sang fantastically well. I was up against the soundboard in the back of the main floor and I was on tiptoes the entire time (boy were my calves sore). Everything sounded great, Lou beat the living dead out of his bass, Murph the Tank Engine played like you would imagine of someone deserving a dopey train metaphor, and J had everything turned up absurdly loud. During the opening chords of Gargoyle I thought "This is so much louder than on the albu–" and then had all my thoughts obliterated when J stomped on his Big Muff. Cool t-shirts too!
P.S. Really sucks about the gear getting stolen.
