Dinosaur Jr have announced that they will play their first show of 2007 at London’s Scala on June 26.
More headline dates and European festival appearances are expected to be announced soon.
The band this week released new studio album “Beyond” – their first in 18 years to feature Dinosaur’s original line-up of J. Mascis, Lou Barlow and Murph, has received raptuos reviews from all.
The group reunited in 2005, after tentative shows to promote their back catalogue re-issues went phenomenally well, and they decided to try and attempt an album.
Mascis also played an intimate solo show for competition winners at London’s Metro club in February.
Tickets for the Scala show are on sale now, priced £16.50. Show starts at 7.30pm.
