Re: Official Spirits On Fire tour thread

Remember that time Dave Grohl performed with a broken leg? :confused: Yes! Others have performed injured also. They adapted by modifying what they normally do. Sit instead of stand, etc. A show where Perry sat on a stool and sang quietly the whole time might actually be interesting. :neutral: Like ...

Re: Official Spirits On Fire tour thread

It's noticable that Perry is sometimes finding his old voice, sometimes finding better ways to handle his aging voice more gracefully -- dropping into a lower register that still suits the song. I don't know if it's a coincidence, but he also doesn't seem to be pulling the mic away from his face so ...

Perry's voice on Up The Beach is perfect.
100%
By the time he gets to Jane Says, it's shot, with moments of good notes. And I really dislike what they're doing to that song. It sounds like a weird karaoke version.

Re: Official Spirits On Fire tour thread

No, it’s all feel, actually. Artists “follow it.” It doesn’t make for “boring music.” Mixolyidian mode is literally why the solo in Three Days sounds the way it sounds. I’m simply explaining it in accurate terms that non-musicians should also be able to follow. And yes, it is different. Thanks for ...

Re: Official Spirits On Fire tour thread

Same thing with those little clean licks in the quiet interim of Ocean Size. TVL plays natural minor (like Jimmy Page might); Dave plays mixolydian (like Garcia). Little things like that matter to the character of the song because they are important tonal color. I do like some of Troy’s noise bits....

Re: Official Dallas/first night of Spirits On Fire tour thread

I like the slight differences in the 3Days solo. They thwart expectation, sometimes in interesting ways, and make me perk up when it sounds like the original again. They need to turn EA up in the mix though. I think that rendition of Jane Says is more off than the other two songs. It's way, way, to...

Anyone think a song past Ritual will be played?

Yeah, End To The Lies probably
More like Superhero because the kids/grandkids of the original fans might have seen that show, Entourage, and it'll be the only song they know.

As a guitarist myself, Dave Navarro is just fucking amazing!! You don’t just drop another guitarist in there? Everything he does is really textural .. He plays for the song not for kicks. In fact, I think that’s why he lost some of his fast chops? ..You don’t just drop another guy into Jane’s ..He ...

They're The Simpsons of bands. Started in the 80s. Got really really good and really really big really quickly. Then died out but refused to stay dead and came back as a zombie that just keeps putting out zombie crap.
