Re: RHCP

I think it's anyone's right to expect privacy while living their private lives. I mostly agree, although when you make a living putting yourself on public display it comes with the territory. It’s one thing if someone is having dinner with your family, and another if they’re walking down the street...

Re: Jane’s Nominated Again For RRHOF

Jane's Addiction will never get in...Ozzy will definitely get in first try...I love A Tribe Called Quest and they'll likely get in but even though they didn't consciously cross over I feel like right around Midnight Marauders white people claimed them & we haven't had em since :lol: Cher is aight, s...

Re: " Little Me" Out February 2nd

Porno for Pyros has lived in the shadow of Jane's Addiction (to their detriment) for 30 years...and all we're seeing now is a continuation of that vibe...had they been a standalone band no ties to anything "legendary" they may have moved differently...all I know for sure is I don't like fake teeth P...

Re: Pete's Dad - new release

Ha, cool. I'll bet the label sent that promo CD to stations that were having a big holiday concert where P4P was scheduled to perform (only SF, LA, and SD in '93). They did it again in '95 with the "remix" promo CD (when they played 4 holiday-themed radio-sponsored events [Deck The Hall Ball, WHFS ...

Re: P4P on Stern

Years ago people here were convinced Perk had been archiving live shows from the soundboard and vids in the early years. I remember reading about this on either 1% or xiola and I asked him about it before a Banyan show. He did say he has (or at least had at the time I asked him) recordings (didn't ...

Re: RHCP

The uninspired performances and the meh albums of late are disappointing but honestly I'm fine with it...honestly, bands like the Peppers and Metallica did enough cool stuff in their first 15 years or so where I give them license to do whatever at this point...they're no longer bands, they're corpor...

Re: UK/European Tour ‘24…with Dave

Circa 1989 before I'd heard a note of Jane's music I saw Perry wearing that hat and lipstick and for months thought of Jane's Addiction as that strange looking band with the ugly woman in it... :lolol:

Re: Peter DiStefano albums

Gratitude is the most accessible and "Pete" of all his work imo...straightforward hard rock and Pete does a solid job singing and playing on it...I got to perform the song Poisoned with him live a few times, a fun sounding record but pretty heavy message...but I think pretty much you hear his influe...

Re: The Dead Musicians thread

Heard about Geordie's passing last night, this one really hits hard. Since Killing Joke got back together in 2003, I made it a point to see them every time they played within driving distance right up to their last US headlining tour. They were one of those bands that I always had a sense every sho...

Methinks Martyn doesn't really get his just due for his phenomenal work on the first Porno album and in the years after that clearly he wasn't really respected, not being first choice for seemingly any of the reunions up until recently. I have NO idea about his character but I appreciate the way he...
