I saw J. Mascis today on a sidewalk...

CHOUT · 05.30.2007, 07:52 PM

I was driving to the practice space today and I forgot Dinosaur Jr were here this week...I looked over at The Triple Rock sidewalk as I drove by and thought for a second 'he looks familiar' then I realized it was him.

Then I felt sad that I couldn't go see them tonight.

Lucky you!

King_Buzzo is on vacation, so he'll yell at you later.

Pax Americana · 05.30.2007, 07:59 PM

You should have whistled and cat called him.

"Hey sexy! Damn baby, you looking good. Back that ass up!!!"

I wonder what he would have done..?

CHOUT · 05.30.2007, 08:03 PM

It happened so fast, I woulda yelled something if I coulda thought of something.

Savage Clone · 05.30.2007, 08:03 PM

I had a Mascis sidewalk sighting today too. I work down the street from the Triple Rock and he walked on by the front window on his way down the street.
Too bad I'm not a fan. That would have been exciting had I been.
He looks pretty much exactly like he looks in pics.
I was like, "Huh. That was J. Mascis. I was wondering who the big bus down the street was for."

Where you working now? Landlord at the Crack Stacks?

Savage Clone · 05.30.2007, 08:08 PM

I work for the futon place down that way.
Usually I am assembling one in someone's home, but today I was at the shop most of the day.

Hello, fellow minneapolitans...

Is Dino just hanging out for the week?

Shellac used our old practice space to bone up before they kicked their tour off here in MPLS... we used to share the space with a band who were friends with Todd.

Unfortunately, I was out of town that week, so I was unable to drop in on a rehearsal.

Did he appear as homeless as usual?

That's cool. We have a futon here and there in my own house.

max · 05.30.2007, 08:22 PM

damn, Chout!!! you should've shook hands!!!

Norma J · 05.30.2007, 08:29 PM

Why the need for the shaking of hands?

It wouldn't really bother me seeing J. Mascis walkin' down the street, to be honest.

Danny Himself · 05.30.2007, 08:31 PM

I'd talk to him just to hear his voice. Man. Anything that comes out of his mouth sounds hilarious.

CHOUT · 05.30.2007, 08:54 PM

I was just driving by.

All my back problems went away after I purged myself of my futon.

Nice, maybe you can fix mine, it just broke recently. Although I'm sure it's nothing a little gorilla glue couldn't fix. We were thinking of getting a couch, we saw this nice yellow velour (sp?) couch for $50 bucks, but it's a tough call, since we just spent about $100 bucks on a new futon cover (and that's after the sweet discount for know the guy who works there).

Hey, I saw him, too. On the street corner, leaning up against a building. He asked me for a quarter. I told him to get a job.

"money is no object".

What an odd thing to write.

CHOUT · 05.31.2007, 02:11 AM

I was wishing I had one of my guitars with, because it is cheezy, but I woulda stopped and asked if he could sign it.

My roommate saw them the night before, told me they were playing some of the post-Lou songs from Green Mind etc...I didn't expect they would.
