Re: Dave's Return?
Was the last tour in 'standard'? He can't have played with them since they were tuning down so they may just be old tour stickers.

Re: Dave's Return?
Oh of course, I forgot about the 24h thing.
That actually makes more sense, given the situation. A cautious, indirect 'leak' instead of a fanfare.
That is really encouraging!

Re: UK/European Tour ‘24…with Dave
I'll be at the Roundhouse on Monday
It would have been great to get to Barrowlands, my friend was keen as he says "the Scots crowd really go for it".

Re: Porno For Pyros 2023 tour thread.
+1 for SYTBS The production was a bit dated even for its time. Not many rock artists get the transition into electronica right. But Perry's record had just enough quirkiness and sparkly-eyed new-age goodwill to make it endearing to me. There are a few moments which even make me feel quite emotional....

Re: Janes Management Forbes Article
The philosophy sounds good.
They should be more transparent with the fans though. There's a balance to be struck between protecting the brand(s) and embracing the interests of the audience that ultimately pay for it.

Re: "Produced by Dave Jerden and Perry Farrell"
To my mind the producer's role is mainly about having a vision for the project and the resources / contacts / budget (brought or negotiated) to realise that vision. It doesn't necessarily require technical knowledge of the studio, that's what the recording, mix and mastering engineers are for; BUT r...

Re: Navarro: What makes him great?
I've been stuck in with Covid myself this week, but a friend kindly posted a copy of Whores (the book) over to keep me amused. It's revealing about Dave as a person (well, everyone really). I found his family background really interesting, with this looming patriarchal figure overshadowing their liv...

Re: JA March 2023 Tour Thread
Those Twitter clips Creep posted felt lacklustre. There seems to be a lack of chemistry between the band and JK.
I can't see it lasting. And if they do stick with him, might have to concede to playing smaller audiences.

Re: JA March 2023 Tour Thread
Not bad. It reminded me of Bob Marley, dipped in Songs Yet To Be Sung. I did wonder if it would be something low-key, possibly Eric playing acoustic on Jane Says, and then on this. The guitar role sounded under-developed. Not convinced by JK. Difficult to place such a mellow song in the rest of the ...

Re: Smashing Pumpkins + Jane's - Australia
People seem to respect Josh as a person, someone who contributes positive attitude to a situation.
The way the Chilis ditched him was quite disrespectful. It is a slightly odd role that he's fallen into though.

Re: Navarro: What makes him great?
Personal favourite is No One's Leaving. It doesn't sound like any other guitarist (that I know of) and Dave doesn't simply play a version of the bassline with extra licks Yeah, No One's Leaving is a total banger. I don't know of it appearing in the early sets, is it a later written song? Also, his ...

Hoka - reading your response it dawned on me that I had never really listened to One Hot Minute beyond the singles, so it's blasting out as I write.

Re: Navarro: What makes him great?
Your mistake here is speaking in the present tense. When is the last time Dave did anything you’re describing? That's a point worth digging into. See, I think it depends what he is working with. I know it doesn't necessarily have writing chronology, but the first three tracks on TGEA have some inte...

Navarro: What makes him great?
Dave Navarro, he's a fucking great guitar player. Over his run with JA you can say that: 1. He knows when to lock in as a rhythm player and when to take off as a lead player. 2. He knows when a song will benefit from NOT soloing (e.g. Then She Did - I clearly remember him saying in an interview how ...

Re: Official Spirits On Fire tour thread
It would be all too easy to take the piss out of Dave Navarro's stage image. Troy did a great job IMO and, by the sounds of it, stepped in at short notice.
Dave is a really fine guitarist, one of my all time favourites - purely because of his work in JA. I'm gonna start a thread in his honour.

Re: Dave and Eric on new Iggy Pop Record
Thing I like the most about 'The Regency' is the guitar work. The thing I like the most about 'Comments' is the bass line. Imagine if those two guys were in a band together, that would be really cool.
