This is turning into a bit OT come mid 90's post hardcore / straight-edge thread but Empathy and By The Grace of God are some of my favourite bands from that era, along with Falling Forward and the rest of the whole midwest me scene 😆 But even the slimmest possibility of seeing By The Grace of God would be pretty damn exciting.
My mate unintentionally made J Mascis crack a 'joke'. After a particularly crushingly loud Dinosaur jr gig in Brum, they went off stage and Steve shouted "TURN IT UP!" In his loudest, manliest voice. Dinosaur returned for an encore, J shuffled up to his mic and deadpanned "turnitup" really softly in a high pitched Brummie accent. Absolutely hilarious coming from J.
I heard J Mascis this week in Bristol. I saw his cap and guitar neck, and actually his face, for about a second. At 6'1" and a few rows back it was definitely the tallest crowd at a gig I've ever been to. Sounded good though.
Coming up:
