My favorite memory of Dinosaur Jr.
They had a comeback I guess two years ago. The first concert they gave was at Vera in Groingen. At that time I was doing my internship there. Dino Jr, stayed for two days and slept as well over there. So I saw the guys walking around with their families and stuff. It was great to see such a legendary band just walking around.
The night before the concert J Mascis came to me and ask for cigarettes. That question ended in a great discussion about cigarettes and America. He’s an intelligent and funny man.
I met Lou Barlow before during a solo gig. I knew he was a quiet friendly man. And during his stay with dino jr he brought his kid with him, so cute. Its special to see not only one of your favorite bands but also their family and children.
It was het great experience!
