Dinosaur Jr prop up Playboy mansion
It's a bit disappointing that Dinosaur Jr have done their bit to prop up Playboy by doing something for Playboy.com. It's part of the site's bid to find something that it can charge for, what with so much porn being available for free on the net.

I haven't read Playboy regularly since the 80s but the "I only read it for the articles" cliche had some veracity to it. If you want airburshed soft porn there's much better elsewhere, but where else would you get 30-odd pages of interview with John and Yoko, or the Sandinista leaders, or Watergate bad boy G. Gordon Liddy? The sooner they get rid of the birds completely and concentrate on what they do well the sooner the public's ignorance of what's actually inside the mag will improve.
Having said that, I've never listened to Dinosaur Jr. so I'm not best informed.
