I picked mine up on Wed. I Love it. I’ve been listenin’ to these tunes half my life, but i dont know there’s something great about having alot of the good ones on one disc. I still say it’s missing "what else is new" though. oh well im grateful.
THIS MAKES 30 TOTAL DINOSAUR JR. C.D.’S FOR ME!!!!!!!THE SONG GREEN MIND
IS ABOUT SONIC YOUTH!!!!!HOW HE FEELS HE DOESN’T FIT
IN WITH THEM.J SAID SO HIMSELF
treble all the way. pavement’s song license name is "treble kicker".
also see nirvana’s album "in utero" inside the sleeve it tells you how to set the bass and the treble– bass should be set at 2 o’clock and the treble at 5 o’clock. this is a rule we should all live by. it makes music so much more plesurable. i cant stand it when i get in somone’s car and the bass and treble are at 0 o’clock. this is a pet peeve of minelame topic.
all are great.
RD- Do you have "keep the freakscene"?
what are the other songs? is "hide" on there?
I do not know of any bootlegs with "whatevers cool…"
I do have a vhs video of a ’91 show that has "whatevers cool…" on it. The sound quality is’nt great but its the song alright. I would be happy to swap with you if you’d like?that makes me sick, blink 182 covering dinosaur jr. I would like to hear it though i bet it sucks.
I would be very surprised if J played "start choppin" during the hand it over tour. The last time I heard it was in oct. of ’94 (W/o a sound tour) they played it for their sound check. I’ve seen him over ten times since then and he has never played it. You’ll never see it on bootlegs either. Which is a shame cause i need to hear it live again.
HickoryWind–
I’m with you about Mike Johnson. I miss him too. His sense of style with his bass and his clothes can not be topped and was a necessary ingredient for Dino shows. Watt is good but doesn’t mesh with j as far as im concerned.
For a man who likes the "Sold out" Pumpkins so much, you sure spend alot of time on Freakscene.
Just curious= I would like to know what a "pumpkins" fan like yrself favorite song or album of Dinosaur jr. is?
Yeah i hear the hi-hat thing too, on thumb. You dont reckon he’s taking his left foot off the hi hat to double bass pedal?
Also i have a video of dino live in ’91 and they play "whatevers cool…" and you can hear the double bass pedal he’s using. Murph mostly used the double bass pedal during breaks between songs. he would just go off on it, while j’ was tinkering.
Any hoot he’s a treat to listen to.
by the way if yr confused on my name it’s:
"Uma’s Cow"I believe it was "Uma’s bloody fetus".
man yr nuts.
"get me " is about hemmoroids.Thank you.
I Will check it out16th notes huh? I’ll look in to it. I dont think you can do it on any pedal though, mine sucks.
I was’nt saying murph used two bass drums. I do think he used a doubel bass pedal though. yeah the double bass kits look very lame.
talk to ya later
Well you bring an interesting outake on the drummers of dinosaur. I never wanted to convey that George is a bad drummer, obviusly he is very talented. It’s just that the live shows lack so much without "Murph". Everyone I have tlaked to kind of feels the same way too. I know i’m not alone on this.
You have to undertand. Something so perfect is now semi-perfect. (my opinion) And dont even get me started on Mike Watt. But you are probbly right J is just going a different direction.Now do you know for sure that murph did not use a double bass pedal. Cause if thats not a double bass, then tell me what pedal he uses and i want one. Also it seems to me he had a double-bass with the Lemonheads too. Another song to check out that sounds like double bass is "budge" live.(another song George disapoints me)
Yeah the Sabian bells are weak this is true, it doesn’t bother me though i rarely use the bell.
You offer alot of insight into dinosaur. It must have been weird watching them get all famous.
One more question. You mentioned J being tired of writing songs for murphs drumming. I was always under the impression that his song writing encompassed three things 1.guitar 2. melody 3. drums . So do you really think murphs style hindered j’s style?
Oh yeah one more song "Wahtevers cool With me" please dont tell thats not double-bass. If it isn’t i will love murph even more. Someone’s gotta teach me that.
interesting post. i am student of j’s drumming and of murphs drumming. i rip off dinosaur drum fills all the time. murph drumed for a band called "Swish" it was i believe a chick band, at least fronted by a chick. i dont know the record label, but if you really want to know the label i can get it for you. to me george is a very boring drummer. all his drum fills seem the same. murph played with so much more energy. he added another hero to dinosaur jr. now it’s just j who is fun to watch. to be honest with you george actually ruins songs. for example "severed lips" is a very weak song when george is hitin the skins. "little fury things" sucks with george. thumb loses the double-bass fills without murph. i could go on and on. we need murph back.
any idea as to why he doesn’t play with j anymore. i have only read that j said murph just lost interest. i dont know?WE NEED MURPH!!!!!!!!!
ALSO would you mind elaborating on how j hits the bottom cymbal of the hi-hats. what?
i do not understand that.i use sabian aax. i have a 18" stage crash and a 21" stage ride. they are very loud and suit me well. also very affordable if you shop around.
have you seen murph on "The Year Punk Broke." check out hill rolls on "freakscene" right before the solo and at the end. also on the"wagon" he’s amazing
