luckily my neck broke my fall

Posted by doubter on Tuesday, April 17th, 2007

oh where does the time go, i ask you? it seems like only yesterday i was feeling up a high school sweetheart of mine, for the first time, on bench near her lake house. that same trip was featured my first foray into the world/work of j mascis and dinosaur jr. my purchases for that fateful trip was both green mind and bug, on tape. i think i listened to “freak scene” at least 50 times during that 3 hour trip – it was play, rewind, play, rewind, etc. i didnt even listen to green mind until the trip back. i was so enthralled with that damn guitar sound, i couldnt pull myself away from it. still to this day i still get all ga-ga when i hear that opening riff of “freak scene.”

of course you already know that they got a new record coming out next week called beyond. you also know that its the original dino jr lineup too, which of course is awesome.

almost ready

    I really liked the video for “Feel the pain”, where they’re bopping people on the head with golf balls…love the song too!

    Not sure if you like him, but I just posted a link to a great Jeff Healey bootleg (notthatyoung.blogspot.com), who can play guitar with the best of them!
