that was pretty interesting
Re: Eric's thoughts
Meh. He tried to describe what he went through in changing his "punk rock or die" attitude, but never really offered up any details about how his changed attitude affected his financial situation. Which I thought was bizarre considering he had offered up the information that saying "fuck you" to the music industry lead to money anyway. Well, Eric, what about the flip side of the coin? When you stopped saying no as often, was it as financially lucrative? Less financially lucrative?
If you had money with your "fuck you" attitude, then offer up details about the situation now that your attitude has changed.
I honestly would have liked to see him say something like "I turned down NIN and missed a house payment" or whatever.

Eric must have inherited money or bought a very cheap house out right after 1.0. Or his Wife has money. B/C he's walked away from money making opportunities on many occasions.

Or maybe he doesn't live a very extravagant lifestyle? I remember in the xiola interviews he said that Perry lived right around him.. a few streets away? that was before the Farrells moved to their new rented house I guess....bman wrote:Eric must have inherited money or bought a very cheap house out right after 1.0.

Re: Eric's thoughts
If I remember correctly I believe his wife is a professional, like a architect or something. And his Mother in Law is a pretty popular fiction writer.bman wrote:Eric must have inherited money or bought a very cheap house out right after 1.0. Or his Wife has money.

Pretty cool how he gives perry props for the mtv thing. He's pretty fair. He'll call perry out on lame bullshit and give credit where credit is due.
Depressing but true when he refers to jane's legacy as "diminishing".

Re: Eric's thoughts
I can't believe they passed on the MTV Unplugged... They could've done complete re-workings of their songs.. Imagine a sprawling slow acoustic Three Days... FFS.... it's not like they would've been forced to play "all the hits" (how many "Hits" did they have at that time???).. Look at The Cure's MTV Unplugged set.. granted it has 50% singles but there are album tracks and even an unreleased song in there too.. and a cover... Fucking Jane's cunts...Noonesshocking wrote:Pretty cool how he gives perry props for the mtv thing. He's pretty fair. He'll call perry out on lame bullshit and give credit where credit is due.

Well I thought I had the entire show, but sadly not, tho Ive got tons of rare Cure items, even with Robert playing on a pianonausearockpig wrote:

in a bar hotel, but this unplugged seems to be the holy grail, I've checked my other cure sources and I fear that the TV broadcast
uncut may be the only source, but that could be years before it's released sadly, if at all.
I'll keep searching :)
Re: Eric's thoughts
I thought his remarks on the relationship between he and the hardcore Jane's fan were interesting. Really, where there is no relationship there is a shared appreciation for just how truly magnificent 1.0 was....and to that he seems to sincerely care, if not respect us.

I was a member of dimeadozen.org and zombtracker.the-zomb.com for years, even remastered some audio/dvd's for this
Jane's Community years ago on Sonny's old Xiola board, but I just got burned out from trading and took a break. now and then
i'll grab a soundboard gig off torrents. I'll check my collection and see if I've got those shows you are looking for, peace.
