Synth violin in "Of Course" instead of a real violinist. Fake as Perry's current face. Lame. Couldn't help think I'd rather hear these songs sung by Scott Weiland, Chris Cornell, or Chester Bennington, but oh well.
Cant you think of anyone who would do Jane's justice thats still alive?

The world's greatest vocalist would be an interesting choice. Plus we'd get to hear all the high notes in songs again.

Nu Perry makes every old punk metal janes song sound like a journey ballad ...

I'd even go so far as to say that a female vocalist would be an interesting choice.

Karen O has the pipes, the energy, and the weirdness to pull it off. I'd like to see that.

Oh fuck, 67 is spot on.....Patton doing vox in Jane's would be harrowing in a really, really good way. While you're (all of you) at it, round out the rest of the best JA cover band. I think the present one has plateaued.

Taylor Hawkins would be an obvious choice on drums

How about Eric Avery on bass? That'd be interesting.

Jane's Addiction 8.3

Mike Patton - Vox
Tom Morello - Rhythm Guitar
John 5 - Lead Guitar
Mike Inez - Bass
Josh Freese - Drums
Charlie Clouser - Keys

I'd buy my 8 max tickets to that in a heartbeat.

Hey, I was going to suggest Iron Maiden's Steve Harris on bass and Eddie Van Halen on 2nd guitar/keyboards.

Rhythm guitar? :hs: I really like the idea of Mike Portnoy on drums. His power, intuition, and ability would bring some bright new color to the mix. Freese is great....I had never been 'disappointed' with him until I recently saw a clip of him with Sting where he couldn't come close to mimicking the Copeland magic. Guitar is hard....hard to insert someone into what I feel was a mixture of naiveté, exuberance, confusion, anger, and grief compounded by heroic amounts of heroin. Similarly the bass, sans the grief....drizzled with some books, Brahms, and Joy Division.

I saw Sting in Buenos Aires a few months ago, with Josh Freese, and I was really disappointed. I also saw Sting with Vinnie Colaiuta on his past tour, and it was a HUGE diference.
