I took a trip down memory lane last night, compliments of the Lemonheads making a tour stop at Delmar Hall Friday night. It had been quite a long time since I’ve seen this band—the last time I saw them it was the early ’90s and it was a tiny club in Cleveland, and to be quite honest, it felt like not much has changed.

A lot has happened since then, rivers of water under the bridge and almost as many band members passing through as The Fall. Dando is the only constant member during the 36 years since they formed at High School in Boston, Massachusetts, with Ben Deily and Jesse Peretz. Dando’s flirtation with substances has been well

Cult favourites The Lemonheads graced a sold-out show at London's Roundhouse to celebrate the 30th anniversary of their seminal album 'It's A Shame About Ray'. It was a night of heady nostalgia with many of the audience singing along to every word

Evan Dando, as he sang during the first of the night's two encores, is a kinda shoulda sorta woulda kind of guy.
