    Go hang outside. Bring a few lp jackets and some fresh sharpies. Rock from a distance.

    Hearing protection has come a long way too. I can't remember the last concert I attended without ear plugs. Places like Guitar Center and music stores sell ear plugs that are frequency corrected so you hear the details of the performance, only without the exposure to damaging SPLs.

    I think the last ones I bought cost $12.00.

    I thought about it but hanging out in Sac these days during the day is depressing enough.  At night, probably scary.  My rough boy days are long gone, lol!

    Hearing protection is a must.  The only drawback is that the best hearing protection in the world can only attenuate something like 45dBs because our skeletal structure transmits sound to our ears and into our brain.  When I saw Pearl Jam in 2012, I wore both foam ear plugs and industrial ear muffs and still suffered much worse tinnitus for a couple of weeks.
    But no complaints- what a great way to end my concert going life!  That was a killer show, right up there in my favorites with early The Who, Jimi Hendrix, and Neil Young and Crazy Horse.  Pretty damn good company!

    Dinosaur Jr played in Sacramento this evening, about 45 miles from my house.  I would like to have gone but at least I could hear J's guitar feeding back from my porch.  That was cool.

    Oh, no, sorry.  That was my tinnitus I was hearing.  Oh well! :lol:

    Lou missed the Sacramento show because he was isolating after getting COVID. The gig went ahead with a replacement bassist.
    He said he’ll be back for the SF show.

    Bummer!  Sorry to hear about that.  Good thoughts for Lou!

    Vinyl-only live EP coming on August 26th!



    RECORDED LIVE ON MTV’S 120 MINUTES, MARCH 7TH 1993.

    THE CLASSIC, FAN-FAVOURITE SESSION, RE-MASTERED FROM THE ORIGINAL TAPES.

    FEATURING TRACKS FROM ACROSS THEIR CATALOGUE.

    NEVER BEFORE RELEASED! VINYL ONLY!

    Captured at the height of their powers during the heyday of the grunge movement that they inspired, J Mascis and Dinosaur Jr perform tracks from their back catalogue live on MTV’s 120 Minutes show.

    Loud and heavy as ever, the band turn in an inspired performance, which has since become a legendary favourite among fans.

    Never officially released until now, and produced in association with MTV and the band, ‘Seventytwohundredseconds’ is the latest in our ongoing extensive exploration of Dinosaur Jr’s brilliant Sire Records period. A must-hear glimpse of one of the treasures from the rich seam of American alternative rock and grunge artists who reinvigorated guitar- orientated music in the late 1980s and 1990s.

    Track Listing:

    SIDE A
    1 SEVERED LIPS
    2 BUDGE
    3 GET ME

    SIDE B
    1 THUMB
    2 RAISANS

    Excited for this!  I bought all the reissues that Cherry Red did awhile back and they all sound great.

    Posted in the puzzle thread on the Porch but figured it belongs here as well. 

    New puzzle subscription club using iconic album covers cofounded by J Mascis called Puzzle Heads. 

    I SAW PEARL JAM

    Yeah, I saw a clip on YouTube where J was shoing his case containing his collection of Big Muff pedals.  Quite impressive!

    Have a great time at the show.  Don't forget these, LOL:
