Morning Buzz: Vic Chesnutt, Wilco, Dinosaur Jr., Testament

:: One of the biggest deals we missed over the extended holiday weekend was the death of Vic Chesnutt from what appeared to be an intentional overdose of muscle relaxants. He will be missed.

:: Glenn Kotche, who helped Wilco make one good album, recently shared his top 10 o the year with Filter.

:: Dinosaur Jr.‘s J Mascis recently went to Amoeba Records, bought some stuff, then talked about it.

:: Speaking of dudes who wail on the guitar, Testament‘s Alex Skolnick — who I wish was related to Lewis Skolnick, but sadly isn’t — has some video guitar lessons floating around the internets. Go learn how to not suck. Then maybe you can move out of your parents’ basement. Or at least leave it on the weekends.

:: Who wants Minus the Bear tickets?

:: If you want the chick from Paramore to buy you a drink, she can legally do that now.
