Pitchfork brings us news of a reunion tour for Sebadoh, the Western Massachusetts band that played a significant role in the snarky, lo-fi indie rock scene of the early '90s. No longer willing to wait their turn to be with you, former Dinosaur Jr. bassist Lou Barlow and crew will be hitting the road for a two-month invasion of cities large and small in the coming months. Certainly the Nike shoes designed by Dino Jr.'s J Mascis are great for reverse dunks and a well orchestrated pick and roll, but can they withstand two months of Sebadoh's zany on-stage antics?

When I get ready to hit the hardwood, I always listen to some Dinosaur Jr. I bet Lou Barlow has a mean jump shot.

Surprisingly, in a recent poll, Dinosaur Jr. blared in the locker rooms of over 60% of NBA squads before they hit the floor.

I heard that Lebron James can often be heard singing "There's a way I feel right now. Wish you'd help me, don't know how" to his teammates.
