Dream Girl ,'Bring On The Night'
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.
I have an iTunes playlist called “JANGLY!!”. What songs belong in there?
Jeez, I did a whole big Jangly mix myself with lots of Rickenbacker 12-strings. Let me review that when I get home.
There was a fair amount of Teenage Fanclub on there, I'm sure.
Go-Betweens - "Spring Rain"
db's - "Black and White"
REM - "Harborcoat"
Feelies - Let's Go"

Cool! I think one of the best concerts I ever saw was Dinosaur Jr. in Vancouver in 1993? 1994? It was on old ballroom that had a sprung floor, and you could feel the audience bouncing up and down even if you weren't. Anyway, I think they played only about 8 songs in a ninety minute show...lots of long noodling guitar tangents. At one point, they went from a trippy, extended version of Thumb, right into a driving version of Budge which totally blew everyone's mind, and we all went crazy.
Let me state for the record that it was a school night, and I was stone cold sober, unlike most people there.
My god, that was so long ago now.

I saw them in SF probably '91 or '92. Nirvana opened for them. crazy!
Watch and post as I try to score Sonic Youth/Feelies tickets.
The site where you claim your free tickets was supposed to open at noon. It went down even before then.
Please note that this is a reservation only; tickets must be picked up June 18, 21 or 24 at one of several downtown locations (to be specified on your ticket confirmation) or they will be released for re-distribution.
One of those days I'll be away for the F2F, and you need photo ID to pick up the tickets.
Score!
Awesome. Color me intensely green with jealousy.
