Re: ERIC IS BACK!
I think they're just trolling with us. They surely read the forums
Re: ERIC IS BACK!
Hopefully it's just trolling.
I don't think it is entirely though. Before members started mentioning Dave's conspicuous absence and detachment from JA activity things seemed off. An intentional trolling campaign organized by Dave seems unlikely to me, but it does appear to be working; we are talking and speculating and generating low- key Dave buzz..

Re: ERIC IS BACK!
It's a stretch to think they are trolling 30 people from a website with a lengthy distraction that suggests mental or physical health issues. Something is definitely going on with DN, but after 30 years of playing the same short set, he's the Iverson of music. My hope is that he's around enough to accessorize any new material being worked on. And of course, there's nothing seriously wrong with him.

And it wasn't until there were discussions of him being sick that we started speculating.
Re: ERIC IS BACK!
I guess maybe they’ve done it for so long they know the songs like the back of their hands and don’t feel they need extensive rehearsals?
Idk what to think- the Janes account shared a pic of Dave yesterday, he in their profile pic but he doesn’t acknowledge anything…
He did share stories of himself recording back in the summer and I’m thinking he may have already added his parts to some songs

Re: ERIC IS BACK!
I doubt it trolling.
It’s weird
Tour is seemingly going to happen and feels like one of two things will occur:
Dave is there, no big deal we 30 people scratch our heads and enjoy reunion and maybe some new tunes.
Dave ISN'T at there, and it’s Pete or Gilby or whoever—they say he’s not out of band but sick or whatever and they tour it’s fun but weird. They may even debut new songs without Dave but say Dave was part of the writing. Extra weird.
WEIRD OTHER POTENTIAL SITUATION:
Eric said there were 7 ideas and hopefully they become something. What if the “hopefully” hinges on Dave contributing.
I know Perry said they have 3 — and maybe that’s true, but Perry math could be “we have 3 sounds …when Dave adds his parts”

Re: ERIC IS BACK!
Dave liked Stephen’s rehearsal pic.
Re: ERIC IS BACK!
The day Eric posted the insta post I bought 2 tickets. Skipped the last few NY Jane’s appearances. I’m not a fan of any SP, pumpkins or parties. My biggest hope, with what’s been covered in the Dave thread, is that this reunion wasn’t born from a diagnoses. I’m going with its not, Perry made shit right with Martyn and now Eric. We all know the integrity Eric brings. I anticipate this to be the reunion we thought we were getting in 2009. Not a cover of Whores but real studio song(s).
Is Wally still here? I owe a dude.

Re: ERIC IS BACK!
Are you sure? Because I can't see his like on the list.
Dave just posted a photo in Sedona, he's very skinny, definitely not in good shape.
I am struck by the fact that Eric continues to avoid tagging Dave now that he's having some health problems.

Re: ERIC IS BACK!
I can see his pic, but for some reason you can’t search him. I noticed the same thing happened when Eric liked a few Jane’s posts last month. Couldn’t search him in the likes.

Sedona. Maybe Axl gave him a tip on healing crystals or something.Stickyfingers wrote: ↑Sat Sep 17, 2022 1:06 am

I wouldn’t be surprised if Gilby fills in and they say Dave is still in the band but “getting well” or whatever. Crazy that we are still speculating two weeks out.

Re: ERIC IS BACK!
If anyone is filling in for Dave, the only acceptable substitute is Pete.

Re: ERIC IS BACK!
Linda Strawberry (set designer for the tour) Liked Dave’s post of him in Sedona, AZ.

Oh, I agree, which is why it’ll be Gilby.Tyler Durden wrote: ↑Sat Sep 17, 2022 8:53 amIf anyone is filling in for Dave, the only acceptable substitute is Pete.
Again, I so very much hope that I’m wrong about all of it.
Re: ERIC IS BACK!
Wouldn't that be cool if they said.. and special guest...filling in for David Navarro...please give a warm welcome to Jack White!

Check the latest Dave stories on IG. You can see some Jane's anvils out there.

Re: ERIC IS BACK!
And also, Gilby plays rhythm guitar, not lead. I don't know who started speculating with that.

Just was coming here to post that. Seems like he’s back from wherever he was and there are Jane’s road cases at his house.parklife03 wrote: ↑Sat Sep 17, 2022 12:11 pmCheck the latest Dave stories on IG. You can see some Jane's anvils out there.

Was also coming just to post this. I’m guessing that Dave is onboard then.Noonesshocking wrote: ↑Sat Sep 17, 2022 12:54 pmJust was coming here to post that.

I still think something weird is up with him.

Re: ERIC IS BACK!
Yes, but *with Pete* there too. Gilby himself said that Dave and him are two different types of guitar players, so I don't see that.Juan% wrote: ↑Sat Sep 17, 2022 12:29 pmit is only bc he played on 1%, at the Belasco show.parklife03 wrote: ↑Sat Sep 17, 2022 12:12 pmAnd also, Gilby plays rhythm guitar, not lead.
