Steve Isaacs -- 20 Years
Re: Steve Isaacs -- 20 Years
I just read Dave's book again. this guy wrote an entire song about "Mary", Dave's drug dealer, that's so lame .....what's he doing these days, hopefully not back to vj'ing, he sucked at that too it seems....is there any scenario you can place this guy and not have him suck?

How is that any different than Perry writing a song about Jane, the house prostitute? Or Etty, the band prostitute?Matz wrote:I just read Dave's book again. this guy wrote an entire song about "Mary", Dave's drug dealer, that's so lame .....
Re: Steve Isaacs -- 20 Years
if he'd been in another band and then had written those lyrics I'd be ok with it but I think it's a weird situation singing it when Dave is right there next to him. also because of the fact that Steve (very likely) never met her once
Re: Steve Isaacs -- 20 Years
I guess this counts as Janes Addiction news.
Re: Steve Isaacs -- 20 Years
Move this fuckin thread it shouldnt be here in the first place. Why is his name in a janes addiction thread.

The guys in Zeppelin knew Tom, right?

What a confusing band that was. Didn't Dave say there was supposed to be a reunion gig a few months ago?

He probably mumbled that to someone while he was hanging from hooks and all the blood had drained out of his head.Noonesshocking wrote:What a confusing band that was. Didn't Dave say there was supposed to be a reunion gig a few months ago?
Re: Steve Isaacs -- 20 Years
it got delayed becaues of Isaacs big blockbuster cake project
Re: Steve Isaacs -- 20 Years
Dave imagined panic channel would be bigger than janes, then he went running back to Perry once he realised Steve's on-stage presence resembled that of a cucumber.
Re: Steve Isaacs -- 20 Years
I think that's giving Steve too much personality. He was more like a Hot Topic t-shirt. And I don't mean because he wore them. I mean because he might be a nice guy, but as a frontman he just felt like a piece of shit shirt from a mall that cost $39.99 and started losing threads and colour and the iron-on-image of some corporate shill shitty band the first time you washed it, and also was stupid to begin with but you only bought because you were bored waiting for your girlfriend to finish trying on shoes at some shitty store and why the hell aren't there more vending machines in this stupid mall? Why is it impossible to get a Coke when you're being dragged around the ninth circle of capitalist hell?...clickie wrote:Dave imagined panic channel would be bigger than janes, then he went running back to Perry once he realised Steve's on-stage presence resembled that of a cucumber.
Yup. That's the Steve Isaacs-as-Frontman experience.
He probably is a really nice guy though.

Re: Steve Isaacs -- 20 Years
In late '98, I briefly met and talked to Gary Cherone who was Van Halen's 3rd (and widely panned) singer for a year or so. The guy was really cool, personable and seemed pretty sharp but I think he was already well aware he absolutely the wrong guy for that job.Adurentibus Spina wrote:Yup.

Re: Steve Isaacs -- 20 Years
Oh yeah that poor guy never had a chance. Thats one of those moments in rock history where you remember exactly where you were when you first heard the news.

It takes a special kind of person to front a rock band and rarely does "nice" factor into the equation.Six7Six7 wrote:Ridiculously nice.Adurentibus Spina wrote:

Re: Steve Isaacs -- 20 Years
Nice is a relative term there are all kinds of "bad boy" rockers that on a personal level are actually really nice.Pandemonium wrote:It takes a special kind of person to front a rock band and rarely does "nice" factor into the equation.Six7Six7 wrote:Ridiculously nice.Adurentibus Spina wrote:
