Does anyone here asides from me and Frank have drinking problems? Maybe we can turn this thread into an online AA meeting.

Hello, I'm J and I have a drinking problem. It all started when Frank forced me to inject booze into my arm via syringe. What a fuckhead. I wasn't up for it at all, but he and Watt tied me up and started poking me with needles. I must say, those needles were filled with the finest cognac I've ever tasted intravenously, but that's not always a good thing. One time, they held me down and injected me with mercury and that didn't feel so good. I am J Mascis, I am not a thermometer.

Anyway, I like the drink. Any drink for that matter. Water, salt water, de-salinated salt water, fresh water, crazy water, water with poison in it, water with rocks in it, water mixed with cigarettes, water from my washing machine, de-salinated water with poison in it, etc...


I like to drink various different types of water. I'm a water connoisseur.

Who here likes water? What is your favourite type of water? I bet those of you who dream of Frank would really like a swig of Frank's bath water.

hey J - why do you fade so many of your songs out, instead of ending them cold? do you then have
to work out a ending for each song when you play live? i've always considered the fade-out to be pretty cowardly - and don't get me started on the fade-in!

also: most of these fade-outs occur during tasty guitar breaks - what's with that?

not a big fan of the fade-out,
john

I love water. That is why I own three fresh water lakes in the Northern Interior of British Columbia. When the earth is dry and crippled I will rule. So be nice and think of me or all imposters on this forum will shrivel up and die.

Why is this topic in this area? What does it have to do with anything?

Why can't you go discuss this at a CREED website?

Why do you have to clog this forum up with your wasted topics, asshole remarks, and posts to show how funny you think you are?

Shit, I do fade out a lot. I never noticed that 'till you mentioned it. As you know, J Mascis can solo indefinitely. In fact, when I record a song-ending solo, I solo way past the point where it fades out on the recording. Sometimes I get to the studio in the morning when it's still dark and solo all day, until it gets dark again. I don't see daylight because I solo and I solo hard.

I own Rice Lake, allthough it's not very fresh in the summer. I'm also thinking of aquiring chunks of Lake Simcoe, Lake Couchiching and Guelph Lake.

He already started one that is similar. He's upset that I am J Mascis and I am a celebrity. He has always wanted to be a celebrity. I have my music and he has his swimming, but swimming doesn't get the following music does. He blames the world for his choosing the wrong career path.

J is that you screaming at the beginning of Little Fury Things? I always wondered who does that. And that "why don't you like me!" song at the end of Bug, who sings that?

Yes, that is me at the beginning of Little Fury Things. I'm not screaming anything in particular. That was Lou playing a joke by putting a tape recorder in the bathroom while I was passing a kidney stone. It was so shrill that segments of it ended up on Little Fury Things, Why Don't You Like Me and the chorus to Just Like Heaven.

I've been reading many of these J-related threads for a few weeks now, and I must say that while many of Mr. Mascis' provocative musings are megalomaniacal, idiotic and completely off-subject, they –and the inane fallout they inspire– have provided me with some of the most side-splitting laughter I've enjoyed in a long while.

I'm serious. This particular shtick is Fawlty Towers good.

So keep it up, Mr. Mascis. And all you anti-Mascis-posting posters, you keep it up as well. It takes two to tango.

p.s. A friend of mine who dug Dinosaur Jr (but knew little about popular music pre-1980) heard J mention in an interview once that he often tried to emulate Robbie Robertson's guitar soloing style. As a result he went out and bought several albums by The Band, just to find out what that was all about. His taste is now the better for it.

p.p.s. Of course it's J Mascis. But for all you out there who feel it must be an imposter, I encourage you to spend at least a moment considering that it might be Frank Black...

J Mascis in not Frank Black but rather a very creative person from Souther Ontario Canada...his references to lakes in the region gave it away...

I agree.. it's the only comedy on this site. Too many serious non-laughter type people. Hi J, and thanks for the jokes. I don't have your new album, but maybe I'll steal it from the internet.

What a tempting thought! I have to admit that I briefly entertained this very notion yesterday as I was drawn into that exchange with him about Manziers. It was impossible to stay pissed off because it was so absurd--by the time he posted his picture I was just incapacitated with the hilarious pomposity of the J Mascis persona. My husband and I tracked down his posts in every thread we could find and laughed until we cried. What are you gonna do?

The real J would know that Lou did all the screaming for Dino while he was onboard. The only high notes J can hit are falsetto (and con fretto).

But yeah, like I always wanted to hear the rest of the Thumb solo.

One thing I love about the commercial is it's an original song for the commercial (right?) but it sounds like what they play on MTV and stuff. It reminds me of in the movie "The Lost Boys" where there's this live beach concert and the band is playing this totally gay 80s pop rock thing and there's this longhaired body builder who's supposed to be playing a saxophone.

And then there's this one really bad song where a guy goes "let's have a party party hardy party on party on" or whatever. I thought it was another "stereotype kids music today" fake song, but apparently it's actually a song they play on the radio.

That's from the new rock anthem dude. Oh, what's his name? W? Bloody nose on his album cover. I also first heard the song on the commercial and thought it was a joke, then later heard it on the radio.

Regarding an earlier post saying J must be from southern Ontario, I don't thinking naming a few lakes is good proof of that.

johndietzel.. i know exactly what you're talking about re: The Lost Boys because i've seen that movie like 10 times. not so much because it's that great, but used to be one of the only films i owned on VHS.

that was all shot in Santa Cruz by the way. my alma mater, and home of the great Camber Van Beethoven.

You are correct about me not being J Mascis. Some people are on to me, so I'll reveal the truth right now: I am Frank Black. I don't really care if you don't believe me because this is too much fun.
