I know I’m on the west coast, but I know a Vintage guitar retailer who has a pretty big name within the industry. He’s sold J some stuff in the past. I emailed him the list of stuff stolen with the serial numbers. Hopefully he can spread the word through many of the Vintage guitar resellers he knows. I wish there was more I could do……… :-

Fuck that really sucks. Thats going to be really expensive to replace. I can’t believe it…….

Another Girl, I just wanted to let you know that you do an amazingly great job finding articles and news about Dinosaur. Not sure if anyone thanks you for it, so I wanted to say great job and thank you very much for all you do around here. I appreciate it very much.

Yeah I totally agree. A lot of the time for me the singles aren’t the best song on the album. Like Without a Sound. Obviously the big hit was Feel the Pain, but my personal favorite is Over Your Shoulder. Which I think is one of the best songs J has ever written. Its crazy to me how much people miss out when they don’t give an entire album a chance, or read liner notes for that matter. :-

Can’t we move this and Mick rule. Though it isn’t my favorite dinosaur record, its still pretty good. Give it another chance I bet in the end it will grow on you.

[tonas]

Yep J plays on that one and another. check out http://www.vagrant.com for more details.

Its not a mustang bridge, J uses the tune o matic bridges that come on SG’s and Les Pauls

I know J has a pretty nice set of DW Drums at home just to record with, I’m not sure what he plays with on the road.

[tonas]

Well I’m 5’9" so judge for yourself…..

Maybe 5’11" or 6′

I thought it would be cool too, but wasn’t sure since they’re back together if it would be lame. I guess I could bill it as Tonasaur – A tribute to Dinosaur jr. It’s only an opening spot so the set would only be like 6 maybe 7 songs. It would be rad to throw that shit down like J though.

Yeah the wolf shirt is a definate too.

Hasn’t J said recently that they’re sick of playing the same songs. This seems like a good time to try out some new stuff. One could only hope.

Bug is the my favorite album ever I know most people will say YLAOM is the best Dino album but Bug sounds a little better production wise and of course by record#3 they were playing tighter as a unit more than ever.

Yeah I really like bug too, but I’m not sure how much Lou and Murph actually played on it. Remember this was the time where they really didn’t get along to well. I remember reading that Lou and Murph recorded their parts for the album really quick, and weren’t around for the rest of the recording. J did alot of this album by himself. I think in one of the the reissue liner notes Sean Kolderie said the only reason J liked working with them is because they let him do what ever he wanted. It is tighter but I wonder if thats due to J recording alot of it himself. I don’t know.

I still love Bug it was the first Dinosaur Jr album I bought. Green Mind is my favorite closely followed by YLAOM. Come to think of it the whole catalogue is amazing.

Happy Birthday man. Maybe for your birthday you could take a day off, then I can try to catch up although I doubt I will ever post as much as you have. Have a good one!
