Friend of mine went tonight and said Perry was “out of tune, out of time, forgetting his lines. The band carried him.”

He does seem to have lost his strength, especially compared to the Porno show at Lolla last summer.

when have Jane's Addiction ever been anywhere close to perfect.

Yup

The vibe was awesome I thought. Perry's voice might be fucked, but there were so many people singing at the top of their lungs, he could have coughed and choked his way through it all and it wouldn't have mattered.

One female crowd surfer

Good vibes all round.

...weird having up the beach towards the end.. I loved that, it gave the set an injection because everyone was expecting it as an opener. We passed Eric going for a walk as we strolled up Chalk Farm Road, gave him a fist bump and wished the best for the show. Perry was out on the fire escape while ...

Welcome to club 50

Was the last tour in 'standard'? He can't have played with them since they were tuning down so they may just be old tour stickers.

Oh of course, I forgot about the 24h thing.

That actually makes more sense, given the situation. A cautious, indirect 'leak' instead of a fanfare.

That is really encouraging!

Now this is encouraging

The pic is cut off but it’s definitely Dave’s PRS

Was this Insta? If so it seems to have vanished.

I'll be at the Roundhouse on Monday

It would have been great to get to Barrowlands, my friend was keen as he says "the Scots crowd really go for it".

+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....

The philosophy sounds good.

They should be more transparent with the fans though. There's a balance to be struck between protecting the brand(s) and embracing the interests of the audience that ultimately pay for it.

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 r...

A friend sent me this link the other day, the journalist who posted it also writes for respected music blog The Quietus, whose end of year 'best of...' list is often the source of new listening: https://twitter.com/KaptainKulk/status/1668625346839859200?t=6FJyR0Usz2IGxOz9iOw_2Q&s=08 It's arguable th...

Had this on in the car (cassette, yeah?), this is one of those superb Navarro moments. The point is made between 2'30" and 3'13"...

Couldn't agree more. So much trauma going on there. Sending out healing thoughts x

I've been stuck in with Covid myself this week, but a friend kindly posted a copy of Whores (the book) over to keep me amused. It's revealing about Dave as a person (well, everyone really). I found his family background really interesting, with this looming patriarchal figure overshadowing their liv...

Good footage - great to see the 50 yr-olds moshing and crowd surfing! :thumb: Doing my homework, the Palladium is a similar size to Brixton Academy (currently closed after 2 people died in a crush). Now, if only they would come to Koko or Shepherd's Bush for a festival warm up this summer... :rockon...

Those Twitter clips Creep posted felt lacklustre. There seems to be a lack of chemistry between the band and JK.

I can't see it lasting. And if they do stick with him, might have to concede to playing smaller audiences.

Not bad. It reminded me of Bob Marley, dipped in Songs Yet To Be Sung. I did wonder if it would be something low-key, possibly Eric playing acoustic on Jane Says, and then on this. The guitar role sounded under-developed. Not convinced by JK. Difficult to place such a mellow song in the rest of the ...

This thread started from a fans perspective of why Dave's great then turned into wondering why anyone considers Dave great.

Yeah, it didn't take long did it! Every thread seems to find its 'disaster porn' critical mass before the end of page 2.

People seem to respect Josh as a person, someone who contributes positive attitude to a situation.

The way the Chilis ditched him was quite disrespectful. It is a slightly odd role that he's fallen into though.
