    I heard something about "death in the family" causing a Dino show to be cancelled.  Anyone know more about that? 
    :concerned:
    It was Dave Sweetapple, the bassist in Witch and Sweet Apple. He was only 58 years old.
    Bummer! Sad to hear this.

    Dinosaur Jr have covered Brooklyn on the Jesse Malin tribute album. It's pretty damn cool:

    So cool!  I hope Jeff enjoyed it!
    That's twice now that I've seen Lou wearing hearing protection headphones.  All those years of LOUD must be getting to him.  I hope it's not too bad.  I know J and Murch have worn ear plugs for several years.  I wonder if Lou did as well?  
    The problem with music (or anything else) that loud is that the most protection any headphones (even noise cancelling headphones) can provide is around 42dBs.  That's because our skeletal structure, especially our skull, transfers sound to our ears.  Only being in a sound proof enclosure (like Mission of Burma's drummer, Peter Prescott below) can offer more protection.  So with a band playing at 120 to 130 dBs, you're still getting 78 to 88 dBs or more.  Anything for 70 dBs, especially for extended periods, is likely to cause damage.

    Thank you!
    I can understand what Lou is going through.  Gosh, I though I had or at least knew about as many hearing conditions as one could get. Starting in September, 1993, I've had loud tinnitus in both ears, hyperaccusis, recruitment (abnormal perception of sound as volume increases), and poor auditory discrimination,  But I'd never heard of diplacusis which Lou suspects he has.  For someone like Lou whose career is based around sound, I can appreciate why he would feel anxious.  He did mention that "animals adjust", and that's good knowledge and hopefully will help him through it all.

    Nice!  Perhaps signs of another J solo album coming?
    And how cool that the solos are done on acoustic guitar.  I like his acoustic song with electrics solos, but more like this one with all acoustic would be cool too.
