Live Performance Special: I Don't Wanna Go There

Live Performance Special: I Don't Wanna Go There - Dinosaur Jr

This is another one I have meant to share since way back in '09. It's a pretty cool performance, I get a kick out of seeing any kind of loud live music, and I really dig just the general sound of the band here. The washed out guitar sounds with some mellow vocals over top are definitely 90's but the lick is bluesy enough to not get lost in it all. Something I forgot is how generally loud it was, especially after listening to some more volume dynamic music, this stuff really is just a block of distorted loud.

I also think I remember listening to the original song and really preferring this version because it actually had less soloing, and was just generally tighter and more exciting. As a small aside I love that they play in separate rooms in the performance.

Here's the Performance,

and Here's the Original.
