Good review. I felt the same way about how strange it was that the crowd was sedate for the 1st two songs and went nuts (and stayed there) from Freak Scene onwards.

i thought i had posted my review and photos but i couldn’t find it, so here it is:

this thread needs to be bumped because it is the Melvins and the Melvins are gods

agreed. one of the most consistently awesome bands going.

here’s my review + photos of the first of two shows they played in Boston:

The merch table had everything but spit guards

It was impossible to get a shot of Dale, but I had a decent line for Coady

Buzzo has captured a soul in his guitar.

Hmm…is that the right chord?

I also did an interview w/ Buzzo and Dale before they sound-checked…gotta transcribe that next.

i do sell limited prints so if you are interested give me a shout.

[tinnitus_photography]

thanks! yeah, ear plugs are a requirement for this sort of thing, esp for bands like Dinosaur.

i finished up the full-sized shots last night (after that incredible Twins/Tigers game), so here some larger images

Oh snap ! (sorry sh1vers)

does that mean that we can look forward to enjoying your stellar work behind the lense ?

yes, though shooting @ the ME is a very tough assignment (low, black ceilings w/ very little front lighting). i shall do my best!

I was going to say that Christina of Boss Hogg is wearing clothes!Too old for going naked on stage I guess

yeah, she is a bit too old for that but still pretty damned hot. i really enjoyed their performance. i talked w/ her after the show too, along w/ the wives/girlfriends of the bass player and keyboardist. they were cool people.

thanks for the comments everyone.

Looks like J’s maybe lost a little weight. Or is that just the lighting?

not sure. i saw him last night @ the Witch show and he looked about the same.

Awesome pics thank you !

thanks!

[tinnitus_photography]

that should be a good fit. i thought that Fat Possum was a bit of an odd fit, but _Beyond_ was a great record regardless.

[tinnitus_photography]

i’d forgotten to post these shots from this show…this was about a week after i’d seen their performance @ ATP and both shows were great. Lou in particular was amped.

It’s pretty unusual for all the members of a band from that era to still have all their hair. The bastards! I’m jealous……..

someone made that point about the rolling stones last year…all their hair, and not put on any weight, of all the 5 guys (well keith might be hiding a receding shoreline w/ that bandana he’s always got on)…what are the odds?

yeah j was there. i thought it was an awesome show, best show ive seen in quite a while. i loved the jason songs they chose but i was hoping for mind reader and hillbilly II but what can ya do?

i was hoping for stuff like careful, happily divided, sister, prince-s, can’t give up, etc.

did he play drama mine? for some reason i thought so, though my memory’s spotty.

i think he was ok, j mascis gave him a ride.. somewhere

was J there? didn’t see him, but there were loads of people. crowd was kinda dead i thought, for a hometown show.

thanks for the setlist!

i was a bit disappointed in the Jason songs which were selected.

overall, good show, not great.
