I had this same thought when Eric rejoined, and optimistically saw some parallels to frusciante coming back. Really thought all those misfires would be swept under the rug with new material.panicparty wrote:
If, on the other hand, Jane's comes back like the Chilli's did when Fru rejoined, and they go on to be even more successful than first time around, everyone points to the change, the one thing that's different from the Strays era: Eric. The story becomes that Perry (and Dave) can't do it without Eric.... and furthermore it answers for everyone, that original question about where the greatness of Jane's came from: it was Eric.
Also didn't Dave write a bunch of ritual?
