It sounds like Dinosaur Jr. will be reuniting for a tour this year. I might be quitting my job and renting a VW van for the summer... My dreams have come true!

Interesting- and intriguing. Saw them with Barlow and it was amazing, saw them without and they were terrible. I still listen to their two SST albums and a couple of early Sebadoh, but have had a hard time getting into anything else.

I've been obsessed with them for years, both old and new material. J Mascis is my hero.

what the fuck

I'm down if the encore includes a version of "The Freed Pig"...

Aw, hell - I'm probably down anyways, but that'd make it all the better...

this will fucking rule.

and be LOUD

Love Dinosaur Jr. Don't know how I feel about a reunion.

I did like andyfest's setup with the topic title..

Steve

I like how nobody's said

$CA-CHING$

yet... I mean, is there really a good reason for them to do this? Revisit already-slobbered upon material for generation fill-in-the-blank?







Then again, I'm very excited to be seeing Slint later this month at a Ticketmaster-induced $30+ face per ticket, so I guess I'm not one to judge...

Well, Merge is re-releasing their first three records remastered and all that jazz. I guess that's the excuse. I'm sure all three could use the money as well. Right now there's a festival in Japan confirmed and rumors of some UK dates. I'm just hoping J and Lou can live with each other long enough to make it to the states.
