I dreamed of J last night.

[Annastefka]

I thought this would be an interesting topic because we all tend to dream of things that involve our waking life so I know others out there must have dreamed of J also.

This was after I woke up at 3am or so and went back to sleep around 6am. I dreamed that I had a house outside of Danielsville Georgia, which is 20 miles or so from Athens. It was a wonderful house (I feel the same about my house here in Athens) for some reason I was renting out a room (perhaps to make more money because in the real world I am looking at ways to bring in more income as I will have a few children in private school this year) I was driving down the driveway of my house and I saw a u-haul truck. My friend Terry McManus came running from behind the truck and was very excited. He said "Guess who is moving into your house?" "J Mascis" then I saw J and a few other people bringing boxes out of the truck into the house. My first thought was I must treat J as I would anyone from the street. My second thought was "Oh my gosh my room is a mess, I have clothes and papers on the floor and I probably left dishes in the sink and then I thought screw it, that is me, my house is clean screw the details. Then I met one of the girls moving in with J. I asked "Are you his wife?Shesaid "NO, I handle his business." She had a few small dogs with her and I told her she could let them run in the pasture but she said these are city dogs (because J lives now in NYC I guess I thought city dogs) they can’t go outside by themselves we have to walk them on a lease. Then she pointed to another girl and said that is J’s wife and with her was another women. At this point I went into the kitchen and J came in with some stuff. I gave him a big hug (that came from reading the Amma stuff before going back to sleep) and I said "I am really glad you are here" His wife came into the kitchen and I gave her a big hug and said " I am glad you are here" then J told me "You need to save money,I have heard you are going back to school to do some research" I was wondering how he could know this, I was asking myself did I post something on freakscene about it? (The reality is my husband is going back to school not me but that is how dreams are. ) Soon it was night time and I had the children all asleep and I lay in bed with my husband, he turned to me and said "I know how much you like J Mascis but this is fucking crazy, 3 more dogs, two more women, Stef this is fucking crazy.
and that is how the dream ended.

This was the third dream that I have had with J. Another time I dreamed J was putting in a wood floor in a house. He was on his knees with a hammer banging away at the floor.

I had a J related dream recently:I was spinning around in circles listening to Same Day thinking that it`s my life theme song-RAIN ON RAIN ON NOW THAT WAS MY LIFE
Last night I dreamed I heard a Replacements song live,really loud! I love having audio in my dreams :aliensmile: though I have no idea what song it was

[Annastefka]

I have very strong dreams every night and always have. I don’t recall song or any sound. Strange. I just thought of it. You have converstation in dreams but I don’t "hear" the voice, it is just understood to be the voice.

Many, many, many, years ago, come to think of It, I had a Rush dream with music, I remember the bleacher seats in the dream and I remember waking up with some big Rush song in my head but can’t recall it. I hope others find this topic and answer because it would be fun to read a collection of J dreams from other fans. The Replacements, ahhh, those were good days!! :aliensmile:

[SG]

I don`t have audio all the time in my dreams but sometimes it happens.Once I heard the guitar solo from The Lung,another time a Townes Van Zandt song(no idea which one)that I was crying to since it was so sad then another time Yoko Ono singing a Sting song

[ammaringnyc]

I’ve dreamt of J probably like 5 times. I rember one where his hair was cut all short, very strange. Other people have told me they have dreamt of him with short hair.

one of the only audio dreams i can remember was hearing billy idol’s "white wedding" playing really loudly + almost ringing in my ears as i woke up … but i can’t remember what the dream was actually about … ha ! actually maybe that was a nightmare …

j pops up in my dreams too from time to time … but he’s usually playing live + i go to see him play … it’s not a v.imaginative way to dream of j, but it obviously makes me happy ! :aliensmile: … maybe that’s b/c we sometimes dream of what we are lacking or what we’d like to do, but we can’t … so j — if you want me to stop dreaming of me going to see you playing live, you’re just going to have to come over here + play for real :aliensmile:

you know, if j or any of his friends or relatives read this they’re gonna think we’re a right bunch of weirdos

Rambleon, I think we are alright, weirdos to other things on the internet. My sister was all about Dinosaur Jr. when she was younger (I turned her on) but now she is all about plastic surgery (she has boobs and new eyelids, bigger lips ) She is into expensive cosmetics and creams, She couldn’t breast feed her last child because she had the new plastic boobs. She has her nails done once a month and gets botox shots. One weekend last winter I spent the night at her house and I came here to see what was happening and she was so upset (fueled in part by 2 bottles of wine combined with her zoloft or paxil or wellbutrin (SP?) or what ever) She told me " Your so fucking weird, grow up, why don’t you" I guess her idea of growing up is to have someone put you asleep and cut into your chest cavity and insert plastic pouches, that once healed (several weeks ) your husband and lick, okay I’m sorry that is so weird to me.

my only other J dream was, I was waiting and waiting to see J come out to play music. I caught him from the corner of my eye walking around looking for something it seemed. I woke up before I heard any music.

SHARE YOUR DREAMS~~~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~~*

Reality related to J. has been dreamlike enough. I don’t think I’ve ever had dreams about J. Reality makes up for it. This is real: I was trying to find The Roxy Club in NYC one summer. As I approached the club, on the corner of the street, a little girl started circling and circling around me. We all laughed gleefully and I think I asked her mother where The Roxy club was. I saw the band unloading their gear but I did not approach them. There’s more stuff but I’ll let it be.

I had a dream last night where I was at a Mudhoney show, although they had a keyboardist and female bassist. I saw the bassist walk up the aisle and said ‘hi.’ I thought she was also in The Make Up, but my friends said that was somebody else. So we walked out onto the Loop and down to HSB tobacco company (weird, quit months ago), and they’d remodeled. I ordered from the grizzled hippy guy who runs the place, and he gave me menthols, so I had to correct him.

Then I woke up. The one time I’ve seen Mudhoney and I walked out.

Thanks for sharing your dream Malcom. I quite H. 15 years ago and about twice a year I will still have a buying dream or finding a place to use dream. It never happens! In real life I have had times when I think, well, one more time will not hurt but my well trained mind says "NO WAY" so in my dreams it never happens either. Anyway, I am an armchair dream interpreter. If you have a dream you can’t make sense of then write the snippit that you remember down, just as you did here and most importantly
"Give it a Title". You must "Give it a title" the moment you remember it because that is the true sentence that is the at the bottom of your dream. If you wait your mind will change the title.
The title of my J dream above would have been at the time. "Roomate’s move in" but if I tried to make a title today I might say "J moves in" the feeling right after the dream was about a full house, no connection to J or music, I don’t remember even thinking of his being a musician and this is important to the interpretation of my dream. I do remember wanted my house to be very clean for the new guests. My dream was telling me (reminding me) that we have a limit on what my husband can handle. I have been watching 7 more children on top of my 4 ( count Anna as mine) and will continue until the end of August. One of the children has a dog that he loves to bring over with him and two of the children have divorced parents who have new partners. In an effort to make the children feel happy the parents and new partners are all trying to be lovey dovey which is healthy for the children but I am sure was part of the dream of J with the other women. Anna my love-bug, her Father is living in North Carolina and is now seeing ( for about 1 year ) another women. The new woman also brought her dog from North Carolina and so my dream of the new roomates was telling me about all the activity in my life of late. My husband saying "This is fucking crazy" is how he feels about the extra dog that has been coming over with the child and S.’s dog that came here with her from North Carolina, we have two dogs our selves. My time I spend here at freak scene was the "J moving in" aspect of that. Terry the fellow in my dream who told me J was moving in is a friend of ours who has schizophrenia, he comes from a very well known family in Atlanta, his father a well know sports star, his mother is a dear Catholic woman, an Terry is a fantastic Artist, with all that said I aways go out of my way to help him when I can. My husband has expressed that he wants me to stop and look at the wacky energy all of this helping others has created in our life. I agree but it is almost over. That was the "roomates move in" many have come into my life to occupy my time and my poor Leo Love as usual feels overwhelmed and left out. Like most Leos if he is not getting hot sex (no other way to say it) once a day he goes into this sulking, sad thing. Well, enough said. Malcome your dream is very interesting. It seems that making contact with the girl through saying "hi" was the reason you were there. You thought this girl was also someone else, but your friends said "she is different" Does any of this ring a bell with your waking life. You walked to get tobacco and the place had been remodeled (or changed ) in your waking life it is you who has been remodeled or changed into a non smoker. Last, just as in my dream your very smart mind had the clerk give you the wrong brand because you (the waking you) knew it was wrong. You say I had to correct him that is a bit of a danger signal that your mind may be wanting to go back to smoking. I have always found something very sexual in the word "Mudhoney" not the music, although I really lilke that stuff. Again like my husband I would say the more sex your having the less you want to smoke, although one always thinks of the proverbal smoke after sex. The girl walking up the aisle is an important link I think.

[rambleon]

wow … that is a seriously full house you have … no wonder you had an overcrowding dream … i know my husband would freak out if our house was that chaotic …

[FlyingCloud]

uh oh, so glad you managed to turn your back on H, Annastefka, and lead a fine life w/o it.
…I only quit smoking last year… but on a certain psychic level that was quite hard, one shouldn’t underrate the difficulties that come along with it. I can tell, these "one more time" "NO WAY" inner dialogues showed up, too (and still do).

I usually don’t recall my dreams… sometimes I doubt I have some, but on the other hand you go nuts without dreams so there must be some.
Only in the months after quitting to smoke, I was surprised how I started to remember lots of dreams, some very colourful, most of them weird, and others just about daily stuff. this effect faded after a while, but I didn’t even really think about that until now
… well, unfortunately no J dreams I could think of, to add them here…

dreams with sounds… I still remember one of them because it was so weird.. it was about how I composed the perfect Supertramp song. it was good! I should have told them, because it would have been a hit, I’m sure. …I still can hear them sing it

Que?

Wow, a bad dream but I am telling it anyway. I dreamed I was sitting at the table at my friend Livia’s house along with her partner Joel. We were all reading bits of the newspaper and drinking tea. Livia hands me the section of the paper that she was reading and says " Isn’t this that musician you have mentioned" The article had the word STILLNESS
in bold letters and went on to say that J Mascis had been swept away by the tsunami and had died. The article mentioned that the batteries had been removed from a smoke detector and not replaced. (??????)

We always replace the batteries in the alarms around New Years Eve (I just did one 2 days ago) so I understand why that showed up. We have a Montessori teacher here in Athens who was in Sri Lanka, near the coast, but not staying on the coast, for the holiday. Could she have gone to the beach on Sunday? Yesterday I handled a few calls from other teachers and parents worried about Kusum. She was on my mind last night. Strange dream.

I had a dream with J in it awhile back.I was watching tv and it was a movie review show and J was the guest critic not sure what movie they were talking about but J did good
