by Merge

On the heels of the second set of Dinosaur Jr. reissues, this time via Merge Records, the band has announced many more dates on their first tour in fifteen years with the original lineup of J. Mascis, Emmett Jefferson Murphy III and Lou Barlow. The band first reunited on national TV with a performance on the Late Late Show With Craig Ferguson before heading out on a world tour.

The first dates took place in the UK this past June, followed by the announced US dates. After that, the band will head to Japan for three dates. You can check out a review of one of the original records that was reissued: You're Living All Over Me.
