Aint No Right

Ten years ago, there was still unfinished business- they hadn't reunited or tried to record new material. We're on the other end of both those things now. They gave it the old college try, and it didn't pan out. Dave pretty much gave that vibe to Eddie Trunk back in the fall. I'm at a point now whe...

The santeria design is cool. Palm trees, surf boards, flames, hand-cuffs etc.

I meant 1990/91....

Why doesn't Perry use more echo? His voice would carry so much more, which he needs more and more as he gets older. Cool to hear No One's Leaving getting played but it sounds so pedestrian in comparison to 1991/91 renditions. Needs to be sped up. Oh, and Perry's definitely had work on his face. Is t...

I find it interesting to read interviews with Perry when he talks like this. It's as though he still gets it and understands why they were so great.

But then he does something like "I Like 'Em Big" and you wonder how this can be the same person.

I'd never heard that early version of True Nature before - not the Hyperleaked version but the one in the YouTube clip.

Is there a full bootleg of demos with this rougher sound?

Thanks.

Bump

Sometimes I debate this internally. But then some hero will upload shows I've never seen to youtube and the debate is settled. Dude had it. The band's greatness was a confluence of factors, one of which was that Perry was really in tune with something . Check out this show that just got put on yout...

Appalling renditions of Obvious and Of Course. Perry's singing is obviously terrible but the band's rendition of Obvious was poor too, especially Dave's playing style.

Did Embrace the Darkness or the "weird show tune" that Eric spoke of ever surface?

Isn't EDM just electronic dance music, as opposed to a genre?

If so, it was huge throughout the nineties, long before SYTBS came out.

I find it more fascinating than annoying. How has someone as great as perry 1.0 become someone who is capable of creating 'Spend Your Body'? It's bizarre. Maybe instead of ever having good taste, Perry's all-round weirdness just happened to result in great music for a few years and now the weirdness...

I've always loved this pre-Relapse performance of Hard Charger into Mountain Song.

Didn't know Flea had a problem with Perry although it wouldn't be that surprising.

Didn't he play with Perry and Dave in 2008 just before Eric re-joined? Remember them playing Mountain Song.

Anyone have a clip of Flea playing the Whores bassline at these Lolla gigs?

Thanks for the link. I like Dave but his show is inane.

His comments on the Jane's gigs were positive unless I listened to the wrong bits.

Where did Dave say the shows sucked? Do you have a link or a quote?

What has perry's voice been like at these shows? It sounds pretty bad on every youtube clip I've seen.

Any better in the flesh? Also, the speed of the songs seems a bit lethargic. Am I imagining it?

My expectations for this will be quite low. I thought they'd stepped back up the tuning? Haven't being paying close attention for a while now.

Surely they'll play more than 11 songs at their own gig? Don't they just churn out hour-long sets at festivals? I read that interview with Dave too and I can't imagine the songs will be played any differently than they have been for the last number of years. As ever, I just want lots of echo in perr...

Tickets are £37.50 if you buy at the venue. £43 if you buy online with transaction fee.

Do Jane's play encores at these NS gigs? I'd be hoping for Three Days and Stop.

I've come to a similar conclusion but there is no denying Perry was the most compelling aspect of Jane's and Porno for the best part of 10 years. That wasn't a coincidence and I don't think it was fluke either. Just watch one of the concerts from Jane's 1.0. Perry was incredible at that time. My tak...

Perry's brain is fried. I think he knows that this is ridiculous and cringeworthy but he doesn't care.

How about this for a theory: Perry has decided that the most punk thing he could do is to willingly destroy his own reputation. Could it be deliberate?

So I guess Sonny's phone interview never surfaced?

Did Sonny's 4 hour-long phone interview with Eric ever surface? I remember Sonny saying that Eric addressed the pre-91 days in that interview.

I kind of enjoyed watching Stop but it sounded a touch too slow. The funny thing is, despite Perry becoming more mainstream in the way he dresses and styles himself, he's still an utterly bizarre guy to watch and listen to. That's one of the main reasons I love Jane's, so that's not meant to be a cr...
