When i watch his interviews, i always end up shopping for adidas stuff.

Me and my mate Stevey travelled from Glasgow down to London to see Dinosaur Jr. at the Islington Powerhouse in ‘89. When we got there the queue was enormous and we had no tickets so it looked like we we’d came all that way for nowt! But Stevey had a brainwave, so we called the club from a pub round the corner and asked to speak to Dinosaur’s manager, and told her we’d met J Mascis a few nights before at the Glasgow gig (a lie!) and he said he’d put us on the guest list and that’s why we’d came 600 miles overnight! She was clearly stressed out as the band were due on any minute and she hadn’t the time to check up with J, so she told us to make our way to the door and the security would shout our names out!! So we ran back to the club as fast as….and sure enough a couple of minutes later the door opened and our names were shouted out over the heads of the other ticketless hundreds of unfortunate punters flocking around the door, and we shoved our way through the throng and were dragged into the venue by the security!! The best thing about it was I had my Sony Pro Walkman with me to tape the gig, and they never even searched us!!! That tape is amazing!

Still the best interview I’ve seen with j. Super awesome

Segment featuring Lou Barlow begins about 30:25 .

J is definitely a guitar god, no question about it. His high string action is that probably because his first Jazzmaster had a problem with high note frets and he needed to get the string height up to play and he got used to it.

J seems way more lively in this rundown compared to the last one.

Look at the saddles on that old jazzmaster! Holy intonation...

At what point did J become the perfect amalgamation of Kim Thayil and Judah Friedlander?

Great question at 29:08 ish! Don't think I heard that question/answer before. And overall very well done interview with J, rolling with his style. Always cringe a little through these until I realized..... "okay, he's good, he's gonna roll at his speed and vibe". Well done, interesting and informative. Also like the other band/gear appropriate references too (Marr, REM, Built to Spill, etc. )

great one! love my grabber bass too!

very cool about Buffalo Tom!! Great band!!

The action on those jazzmasters is fucking bonkers

I have one of those Squier Thinlines too and I'm gonna change the neck also- cool. Alvin Younblood also did this- it's a popular thing to do I guess. That Squier body is crazy resonant and sweet.
