Re: Navarro: What makes him great?

There is a definitive Navarro sound, I’d say, in terms of the scales/modalities, licks, riffs, voicings, technique and guitar tone. That sound is basically rooted in the pentatonic, dorian and mixolydian scales with the odd dissonant note thrown in every now and then to create a sense of eeriness. ...

Re: Dave and Eric on new Iggy Pop Record

Wonder if that was the first time Josh had seen Chad since the pink slip No they have been working together for the past few years. They did the Eddie Vedder record and toured last year (with Chaney), also with Andrew Watt I’m stunned Andrew Watt has become this influential in the rock world. Not t...

Re: Navarro: What makes him great?

Agree. It made me sad to hear those chordal colors and goth-psych arpeggios on the new Iggy track, especially sitting so close to the Eric track.

Re: Alt Press Article on tour/new music

The idea that Dave may be upset because Chaney is no longer involved with Jane’s is just comical (though it may be true). The guy was total dead weight and added nothing. The antithesis of what Jane’s Addiction was/is. Chaney is beige pants and plain yogurt, personified. Dave should be thanking the...

Re: Alt Press Article on tour/new music

I find it super sad that it took Dave basically quitting the band for Perry and Eric to finally truly patch things up from 30+ years ago…or at least that is the optics. Same. It sorta doesn’t feel like a coincidence either. Part of me thinks Dave decided to leave when Chaney was let go…like he’s ju...

Re: Alt Press Article on tour/new music

I suspect that the band doesn’t even know exactly what Dave’s problem is, and they also aren’t sure if he’s using. Perry’s demeanor turned very serious when he was asked about Dave in that recent video interview. I noticed yesterday between his personal account and life and death account his storie...

Josh played a majority of the set last night. I bet they are getting him up to speed for next year.

Re: Official Spirits On Fire tour thread

Seems like Dave might feel like Chaney is his bandmate more than Perry or Eric. I guess who’s to blame him? Even if we roll our eyes at NHC, I bet Dave had more fun playing with that project than he has with Jane’s in a long, long time.

Full Minny show with Had a Dad and Kettle.

I may be in the minority, but I love Had a Dad and am psyched to see it in the set. Man, Perry is hitting the Ocean notes powerful and clear as a bell. Maybe I will go to the Portland gig and bail before SP.

Great video from right up front of the first half of the set. Although Troy is a little rough on Kettle Whistle, I actually like this version better'n the Jubilee tour version (although the visual presentation was killer in 2001). Probably the first time I've gotten chills hearing Janes live since ...

Panic Channel was bad. It was try-hard music. Not something you should associate with Jane’s members. It was corporate alternative rock. Terrible.
Accurate take.

Re: Official Spirits On Fire tour thread

There’s something I don’t like about Josh Klinghoffer; I can’t quite put my finger in it. He’s kind of bland. Of course, not Chris Chaney bland, but still. He has a vibe that he lived in his bedroom for years and practiced around the clock, making him a great guitar player. But in front of an audie...
