That was fairly awesome.
It looked like Sonny sitting in on Perks kit.

Re: High Quality YouTube
That clip sums up all that was wrong with the Eric reunion once the NINJA tour started. There's a palpable wall between Eric and the other three guys, everything's being played tuned way too far down, and Perry constantly veers into clownish self-parody.
Re: High Quality YouTube
if he's gonna sing all raspy, i don't know why he doesn't just embrace it. Don't try to sing high with a rasp, just sing low.

no you aren't. i think he would be the first to admit that he loves to bitch.bman wrote:Just kidding.

Mark Lanegan has made a career out of it, Perry hasn't. It'd be one thing if he did that for new songs, but it wouldn't make sense for the old ones, and for what it's worth, I thought this performance was pretty good.Six7Six7 wrote:if he's gonna sing all raspy, i don't know why he doesn't just embrace it.

Re: High Quality YouTube
Who's bitching? I'm just saying, he should embrace where his voice is instead of trying to fight it. I said the same thing before TGEA came out when someone posted some cover song he did with Peter Murphy's band. He sounded good when he just stayed low.bman wrote:Six7Six7 wrote:if he's gonna sing all raspy, i don't know why he doesn't just embrace it. Don't try to sing high with a rasp, just sing low.

Re: High Quality YouTube
he did get a hernia from singing recently so i guess the guy is trying but he just can't sustain his voice on tour.Six7Six7 wrote:Who's bitching?

Yep. I almost walked out at the NIN/JA show I saw. Utterly heartbreaking. The Vibes show was infinitely better.Pandemonium wrote:That clip sums up all that was wrong with the Eric reunion once the NINJA tour started.

Re: High Quality YouTube
Truth. It broke my fucking heart. Perry was in full Liberace mode, and I think they were tuned down the full step, which just sounded like shit. I hung out with them backstage before the show for at least an hour, so I was really hoping it would be good. I actually did leave early, as a matter of fact, during Summertime Rolls (second-to-last song).creep wrote:come on now. no one believes that.CaseyContrarian wrote:

In fact, I think they went down 3 semitones at some point. By then, Eric's bass could've easily been used as a bow. It was awful.CaseyContrarian wrote:Perry was in full Liberace mode, and I think they were tuned down the full step, which just sounded like shit.

Re: High Quality YouTube
I hear ya. I was looking forward to the Jone's Beach Ninja show and I thought they blew. I think my seats and Jone's Beach being a wind swirl shit box contributed, but Perry sounded the worst I've ever seen. I went to lolla that year and he sounded much better. He was on fire at Irving Plaza this past October. I don't see how he can sustain a whole tour at this point, way too hit and miss.CaseyContrarian wrote:Truth. It broke my fucking heart.

Re: High Quality YouTube
Strange. I was 5th row at Jones Beach for Ninja and thought it was one of the better Janes shows I've seen.
Re: High Quality YouTube
KC Ninja show was great. Perry hasnt been on top of his game for awhile, but it was as good a Jane's show in a venue that size could have been.
I did leave as soon as Jane Says started. I've heard it a million times and wanted to beat the traffic.
I had fun though. Got way too stoned during NIN and the strobe lights were eating my brain though. By the time Jane's came on I was feeling better.

Re: High Quality YouTube
I thought the band sounded fine in Pittsburgh, Perry was the problem. He wasn't singing any of the songs with their original melodies, and the majority of the time he didn't even sing.... he just did that crooning talk thing.
If the band is going to downtune for his vocal range, he should at least sing. If he's just going to talk, then what does it fucking matter what key they are in? They shouldn't have compromised their sound when he doesn't give 100% onstage anyway.
I really wish Eric had followed through with his idea to do a band with himself, Dave, Perk, and Trent Reznor. Even though Trent has blown his voice from 20 straight years of yelling, he's at least found ways of making it work live.
