Aint No Right

I low key love that cover art though. Or “cover art.” What do you call the promotional image accompanying a digital single?

I'm loving this more than I expected, and more with each listen. I totally agree that it sounds like a natural progression of where things would have headed after GGU (knowing when it was originally written, but still). And considering when it was written (and the little iterations we've heard over...

If we’re living on the west coast, think we can expect Agua to drop at 9PM today if Spotify follows the east coast time zone? Or when do song typically release on Spotify

Correct. Or at least it’s usually this way. But we’re talking about Team Perry here, so maybe it’ll come out next Tuesday.

No PNW, no northern CA. Wild.

Well, I guess we can get back to ruminating on Navarro’s “long Covid.”

Jane’s headlining the Bearded Theory festival in England next May… It could mean nothing, but the Bearded Theory website specifically mentions Dave as being in the band. We are excited to announce the first wave of artists for 2024! The festival will welcome an electrifying selection of artists to ...

I’m happy I saw Eric w/ Janes without the Liberace Perry era.

Likewise. Only three amazing times.

So, I just had a peek at Dave's Instagram -no activity for 5 weeks. I also checked his fiancee's 's account and saw some photos from yesterday. Looks like she's using. I suppose it could be a tick bite or suspension hole...if she's into that. Nary a peep about music from DN. I shouldn't assume that...

+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...

I don't see any new Jane's album happening.

I can’t imagine they don’t release what they’ve already been recording.

Without guitar parts...? I can't see them releasing anything without Dave. Thoughts?

I can’t see them releasing anything.

No idea what level of functional they are, whether one is more together than the other, or how deep in the bag Dave really is, but I do know that it’s fucking weird to see him become some kind of instajunkie influencer. Everything is so stylized and manicured but there’s grimness beneath the veneer....

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 ...

PS: I saw Casey’s daughter Poppy’s show in Portland last week; she was terrific live, a ton of star power. Took our 13 year old daughter, who was over the moon, and got to meet the band after. I hope Poppy keeps going and scores a bigger audience. I hope you mean Poppy Jean Crawford. Poppy is a com...

Doesn’t seem to be a Portland date; not gonna schlep to Seattle. For OG Jane’s, I obviously would, but I then again I wouldn’t need to, because there would surely be a Portland date.

Rubin is never “behind a desk,” and rarely even in the studio. His engineers ruin the records on his behalf.

Ruin? Go on.

I have ears; no elaboration required.

I'd be curious to try Rick Rubin, how Janes sound with him behind the desk. That’ll never happen.. Perry hates Rubin with a passion Didn't know that. I have heard a few times EA can't stand him Rubin is never “behind a desk,” and rarely even in the studio. His engineers ruin the records on his beha...

That is interesting, though I’m skeptical about an album in the ‘20s. (Can you believe it’s the ‘20s?)

I suspect Watt is easy to work with, gets along with people, has good ideas, fosters good ideas from bands, has a proven track record.

I wouldn’t mind him — I’d just like to avoid too much modern production and compression

Sounds about right, and ditto on the digital Botox.

Nobody ever mentions how Amyl and the Nitrates have been doing as the opening act.

Because they are never not fucking brilliant.

PS: it’s Amyl and the Sniffers

Also, it looks like Pearl Jam is touring this summer so maybe that’s incentive to reintegrate Dave?

The strangest thing is none of this Eric stuff would even be happening if it weren’t for Taylor’s efforts to bring him and Perry together. I’m Dave was assumed to be the guitar player.

I didn't see Relapse, but have seen everything else. Flea is Flea and there is no hiding that, but it almost felt like JA have spent the last 20 years hiding the non-founding member of the band on stage. As much as I like Martyn, he slotted it without standing out (plus, he wasn't there for long), ...

This Perry situation is one of the most incredible comebacks I’ve ever seen.

Regarding Josh (ducks), if I close my eyes it’s like XXX era, wilder, less well groomed. I’ll take it.

Dave is a petite man. I guess for a guy that's not really a compliment, but he is small in build, height about about 5'4 or 5'5. He's not THAT short. I am 5'10" and the few times I met him he was always around my height. And that was before the giant lifted boots he wears now. I'd say more like 5'9...
