Yeah I know dude.
Alot of people were into alt rock/grunge but Dino was an aquired taste I think.

I used to work in a record store and one time this girl came in buying Dinosuar Jr, Sonic Youth, MBV, Pavement CDs. I said ‘OH MY GOD youre buying soooooooo many cool CD’s.’ She looked at me weird and just said ‘yeah theyre for my brother, i’ve no idea what this shit is’.

Also interesting story my friend told me recently that the girl from the Sonic Youth dirty boots video used to come in to the mall record store he worked in NJ and he totally had a crush on her based soley on her bangs and doc martens, his g/fs who knew her claimed she was a poser and were totally jealous when she scored the part in the video. Anyway after the video she was never seen again. I think just started hanging round with "cool kids".

Thanks so much man. I borrowed the hat off my friend, he’s had it since the mid 90’s and was sooooooooo strict about me borrowing it…I had to promise to take care of it and give it back ASAP. I never knew any girls into Dino Jr growing up so when you did meet them it was huge deal…for me anyway.
