junior dinosaurthe 1993 album Where were you — with alt-rock hits “Out There” and “Start Choppin'” — turned 30 this year, and to celebrate, the band have announced multi-show residencies in London and New York: they will play four nights in London The Garage from November 12 to 15and seven concerts at Brooklyn’s Williamsburg Music Hall December 1-3 and 5-8.
As they did with their Bowery Ballroom in 2015 where they celebrated the 30th anniversary of their debut album, these residencies will have Dino Jr “inviting a splash of guests and friends to sit down each night”. The Bowery race included Kevin Shields, Kim Gordon, Kurt Vile, Sharon Van Etten, Mike Watt, and more. Along with the album in its entirety, the band will be playing a second set of songs from the rest of their catalog.
