    Are Weezer and The Flaming Lips both bigger than Dinosaur Jr?

    From a mainstream perspective they are. I’m a big Dino fan, but when I wear my shirt, most people say, “What’s that?”

    Edit: I mean in notoriety. I like Weezer, but Dinosaur Jr. beats them everyday for me. Now, last time I saw Weezer in concert though, they were a hell of a lot of fun.

    Totally agreed!
    And other than people who know me, I've always gotten the same response anytime I wear a Dinosaur or J Mascis t-shirt.  I think maybe only once did someone say, "Oh cool, Dinosaur Jr!"

    Now the one time I got a random, “Love that shirt!” was when I was doing car rider at my school. One of the dads was a former rocker from Massachusetts, and he rolled the window down to admire my purple cow shirt. I always wear it on pajama day. It seems to fit!

    Very cool!  And seeing as the dad is from Mass., that makes some good sense!

    I cannot imagine Dino doing the 35 minute doors open set.

    I haven't really listened to either Weezer or the Flaming Lips. But Weezer are opening for Smashing Pumpkins soon and I am looking forward to seeing/hearing them then.
