[Goodbye]

I missed 4.
Rock Garden (ignorant), That Whelan's one as a two piece (sick), Dinosaur Jr in the Acamedy (stupidness) and Dinosaur Jr at Electric Picnic (Friday EP difficulties).

Best ones: The above Mean Fiddler gig, The New Folk Implosion in TBMC.

ah... missed D jr at EP, but that doesn't count really as it was a festival & not their own gig.
Not a fan of festivals. Standing in a field or tent with the spill from the "rave" stage is no way to enjoy live music.

We were in the Science Gallery and they were playing Snow Patrol on the stereo. I went through about 5 songs liking them before I realised. I've also confessed to liking their recent poppy single. Am I being tricked?

 

[Goodbye]

Very much so.

Stay true to Lou.

 

[Flux]

I was at the Rock Garden gig too. A few of us got talking to (/surrounding/shouting at) Lou beforehand and he put all of us down on the guestlist. I had a ticket but didn't want to ruin the fanboy moment for myself. Sunbear supported them, it was a really great gig.

 

[Goodbye]

He did the Lou Rap for me and my then wan at the side of the stage after the show - Later I found myself squeesed into that pathetic excuse for a backstage area the Rock Garden had drunkanly getting my The Freed Man tape autographed.
Still have it.
Jason "hilariously" signed it Jason O'Lowenstein cos he was in Ireland.
'94 I think.

yeah - it was 1994, not long after Skull came out.

 

[Goodbye]

Coincidentally a package arrived today:

Here's my two Sebadoh related experiences well one Sebadoh and one Dinosaur Jr.

Went to see Dino jr in the Ambassodor while on mushrooms.

Highlights

- Trying to keep it together at the door presuming that the bouncers would kick us out at any point.
- Trying to keep it together at the bar only to be told that there was no beer, much hilarity insued
- Walking for miles and standing around waiting for what felt like a lifetime only to realise we had walked 15 feet and been there 4 minutes
- J Mascis looked like an indian shamen and I couldn't stop laughing at him.

Lowlights

The sound was muck and I was bored for most of it, even on mushrooms (or perhaps because of mushrooms) I thought it was boring. Left early took 3 hours to walk home to Ranelagh.

Sebadoh in Whelans was good but not life changing, no one looked like a shamen and mushrooms were illegal. got pissed went home.

Still love Sebadoh though.

LOCAL BAND FEEL LP

Came out in December 1993 or so.

Were the "slow speed" tracks ever corrected?

 

[Goodbye]

Considering it was a bootleg I doubt it

Most unnecessary remaster ever - still mazin buh

 

[damien]

snow patrol definitely supported at one of those mean fiddler gigs

 

[Anthony]

i think you're right. I had the poster until very recently. It didn't make it through the great office clear out of 2011.

 

[Scientician 0.8]

Saw them in Galway and Dublin the last time they played. Two sets could have been completely different bands. Such a different vibe sound both nights.

 

[NoNo]
