One of my absolute favourite bands of all time
Gonna be seeing them in Leeds on the tour in May... can't wait.
The post-reunion albums BEYOND and FARM have both completely blown me away... absolutely fucking awesome stuff. Such an awesome band.
Lou Barlow's new solo album is also awesome called GOODNIGHT UNKNOWN saw him live a couple of weeks ago in Manchester it was amazing 
Dino Jr 
oooof jack! yes dinosaur jr are magnificent and, JT, if you liked them in any era then you should still like them now they've not really changed or dropped in quality over the last 25 years I'm hoping to catch them at cambridge or shepherd's bush

The venue with the stickiest floor in the country.
i was never really in to them, although i saw them in the summer of 1991 in a very small theater in denver. the opening band was a little group called nirvana.
I clearly remember a feature in the music press when "Feel the Pain" came out. The band were openly chuffed that the scribe thought the song sounded like New Order (it does, IMO). Cue a bizarre conversation where one member of Dinosaur Jnr. claims he'd heard that laughing boy Curtis topped himself because Hooky was shagging Debbie.
I'm not making this up.
Brand new pair of Samba's ruined before New Order came on at Reading 93, and I thought the Vikings were a bit mental in the ole mosh pit. Cunts.
As for the band, all I remember is they were fucking loud and shouted a lot. Just noise to me

Gotta remember that Ben Elton & G are not the same person, Ben Elton & G are not the same person, Ben Elton & G are not the same person
Jeff, yes, one is a miserable fucker, espescially when having to suffer Dinasour Jr.
A lad here in the office really likes them and he's from Leicester. The case for the prosecution rests m'lud.

Shug back in 2006 when he entered the Big Brother house masquerading as an Irish rapper......
Always a bit of a hit and miss affair on album, but they are a cracking live band. Saw them two years ago and my ears are still ringing.
I prefer J and Lou's hardcore band, Deep Wound.
