Last Sunday, the alternative rock
band Dinosaur Jr played the Orange Peel.
Since forming in the mid-1980’s, Dinosaur
Jr has released nine albums and received
much respect over the years due to front
man guitarist J. Mascis’ guitar solos. They
have been acknowledged by a number of
very influential bands over the years includ

"to
times it was very hard to hear the vocals
of Mascis.
They performed some of their most popu
lar songs, like “Feel the Pain,” which is on
the latest version of Guitar Hero. Other
songs include “Little Fury Things” and
“Crumble.”
For anyone that is interested in giving
Dinosaur Jr a listen, I would highly recom
mend the album “Green Mind,” released in
1991. This album includes some of their
best hits. The majority of the album has mel
low guitar rifts while the remaining songs
include intricate guitar solos.
