Dinosaur Jr - Live Stream (2013x18)


: 28, 2013

We're not quite sure how much power Glastonbury have allocated to the Park Stage sound system, but we're pretty confident that a large dollop of the festival's total of 650,000 watts will be sucked up by the Somerset stirring drones emerging from Sunday night's Dinosaur Jr set. The Massachusetts trio J Mascis, Lou Barlow and Murph helped define American alternative rock in the late 1980s on albums such as Bug and You're Living All Over Me, before Barlow left the band to focus on previous side project Sebadoh. What's equally impressive is the band's 2005 reunion was not a cynical money making exercise, but a settling of differences which has given rise to three critically lauded albums of new work, and a live reputation as thrilling and memorable as the previous incarnation. Settle yourselves in at a safe distance for what is sure to be an unholy performance on the Pilton hills.
