The Amherst trio had towers of amps stacked up all over the stage, including one that was pointed directly towards front man J Mascis, in case his monitors weren’t providing him enough of his own guitar sound. And not having enough sound has never really been a problem for the group, and it certainly wasn’t on this evening as the band tore through a fiery 90 minute set that spanned the band’s entire career.

Smooth! There’s so much more “band” these days, and is he becoming more eccentric?
Don’t know that he’s becoming more eccentric…I guess that may depend on whether or not one thinks there is a limit to the narcissistic nature of mankind. Whatever though – he’s doing his job as a musician and is making damn fine work of his songs.
The limit of mankind’s narcissism is something far removed from one man’s own journey into his art and self-image as a public figure….because other artists have already explored that vice/journey it far further than ole Morrisey.
Meanwhile we hear his songs love them, never know if the “you” is a man or woman, and continue to admire someone who doesn’t compromise his art for the machinery that serves him.
I actually found this site on Jools Holland site, as a trackback.

Interesting direction, though I still get a kick out of a song (which could have been written by anyone) called “All You Need Is Me.”
