These performances essentially created and defined the term "alternative" rock in the US, created an ongoing festival franchise that is still thriving (Lollapalooza), set the stage for Nirvana to shift popular taste a few months later, and were really fucking FUN to play and attend - truly the best times I've had. The shows were epic. So epic, they propelled NIN to the "next level" (whatever that means), but caused Jane's to implode. The band broke up at the end of that tour.<br /><br />Fast forward to the present. Corporate rock STILL sucks. A friend tells me they saw the original Jane's lineup play a tiny show in LA that was unbelievable. I break out my Jane's records and am amazed by how vital they sound. These guys were the real deal and in this current climate mostly dominated by poseurs and pussies it was refreshing to hear something that sounded dangerous, volatile, beautiful and SINCERE.<br /><br />Emails were sent, phone calls were made, dinner was arranged, ideas were discussed and the next thing I know we're in the studio experimenting. We laugh, we get to know each other, we cry, we yell, we almost quit, we record LOTS of guitar solos, we discuss, we actually begin to all communicate, we yell some more, we become FRIENDS, we laugh again and we do some great things. I get to see first hand why they broke up all those years ago but I also get the chance to see four distinct personalities that become an INCREDIBLE band when they're in the same room.<br /><br />In NIN world, 2009 marks the 20th anniversary of our first releases. I've been thinking for some time now it's time to make NIN disappear for a while. Last year's "Lights in the Sky" tour was something I'm quite proud of and seems like the culmination of what I could pull off in terms of an elaborate production. It was also quite difficult to pull off technically and physically night after night and left us all a bit dazed. After some thought, we decided to book a last run of shows across the globe this year. The approach to these shows is quite different from last year - much more raw, spontaneous and less scripted. Fun for us and a different way for you to see us and wave goodbye. I reached out to Jane's to see if they'd want to join us across the US and we all felt it could be a great thing. Will it work? Will it resonate in the marketplace? Who knows. Are there big record label marketing dollars to convince you to attend? Nope. Does it feel right to us and does it seem like it will be fun for us and you? Yes it does. Look for tour dates soon and I hope to see you out there.<br /><br />Trentninjunkie951http://www.blogger.com/profile/06037158533731364656noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12247614.post-11662658449753993762009-02-18T13:07:00.000-08:002009-02-18T13:10:40.414-08:00Cast your vote!I have a debate going on at work between a guy who we will call "Ludo" for now and myself. <br /><br />Who is the better musical artist?

They pursued them. However one of them escaped while the other turned into a goat," Kwara state police spokesman Tunde Mohammed told Reuters by telephone.<br /><br />"We cannot confirm the story, but the goat is in our custody. We cannot base our information on something mystical. It is something that has to be proved scientifically, that a human being turned into a goat," he said.<br /><br />Belief in witchcraft is widespread in parts of Nigeria, Africa's most populous nation. Residents came to the police station to see the goat, photographed in one national newspaper on its knees next to a pile of straw.ninjunkie951http://www.blogger.com/profile/06037158533731364656noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12247614.post-42389869921045564592009-01-20T21:34:00.000-08:002009-01-20T21:36:00.011-08:00Coachella 2009While the line up hasn't officially been announced, here is what i have gathered so far:<br /><br /><br />Confirmed:<br /><br /> * The Airborne Toxic Event —<br /> * The Bug —<br /> * Buraka Som Sistema —<br /> * Crystal Castles —<br /> * Drop The Lime —<br /> * Fleet Foxes —<br /> * Flying Lotus —<br /> * Franz Ferdinand —<br /> * Girl Talk —<br /> * The Hold Steady —<br /> * The Killers —<br /> * No Age —<br /> * Noah and the Whale —<br /> * Late of the Pier —<br /> * Los Campesinos! —<br /> * Lupe Fiasco —<br /> * Peanut Butter Wolf —<br /> * The Presets —<br /> * Sebastian Tellier —<br /> * Themselves —<br /> * Tinariwen —<br /><br />Rumored:<br /><br /> * Band of Horses —<br /> * Basement Jaxx —<br /> * The Black Keys —<br /> * Bloc Party —<br /> * Booker T.

The present I am desperately waiting for is my new house. Mrs. Audio and I have been waiting for this gift for two months and it is finally closing today. Its a nice size house about 2000 sqft and a huge lot. Its no longer in Riverside but in Fontana...Fontucky...Funktana...but its in a nice area of the city. I can't wait for the 4th of July because I think it is still legal to do fireworks so i'm pretty hyped. If the closing gets postponed a third time I will seriously be pissed.<br /><br />With that being said, new years doesn't look like much will happen on the eve. With all the B.S. that happened on a personal level this year I am glad to see it go with a hell of a lot better things going on next year. <br /><br />Have a good and safe new year!ninjunkie951http://www.blogger.com/profile/06037158533731364656noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12247614.post-21928094657185697712008-12-24T07:49:00.001-08:002008-12-24T07:50:18.022-08:00Merry Christmas!!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_yN6qub4W9XU/SVJaMmznPOI/AAAAAAAAARM/RDPmut9rKoE/s1600-h/punisherxmas-1.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 211px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_yN6qub4W9XU/SVJaMmznPOI/AAAAAAAAARM/RDPmut9rKoE/s320/punisherxmas-1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5283384485480971490" /></a>ninjunkie951http://www.blogger.com/profile/06037158533731364656noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12247614.post-17502751942573213562008-12-14T15:58:00.000-08:002008-12-14T21:06:43.089-08:00Almost Acoustic Christmas reviewQuick Update...I heard Kanye West is the surprise guest for Night 2...totally blows as they coulda used him last night<br /><br /><br />Well, before I went to Acoustic Christmas I almost sold my ticket but chose to keep it. <br /><br />Do I regret it? No not really, but the concert itself wasn't that spectacular. <br /><br />I missed Hollywood Undead and Slightly Stoopid because well, I rather stay outside and watch interviews of bands. I listed to some of Hollywood Undead before I went just to see if I wanted to see them, and well, yeah...not so good...Sorry Mama can't give a review of them for your daughter.<br /><br />Three Days Grace- Pretty good set. I wasn't expecting much from them but they had some good tracks and hard bass and drum lines. I hate everything about you was their big hit of the night.<br /><br />Staind- I have ALWAYS liked Staind since back in like 99/00. Their sets are always good and this one was no let down. I thought it was weird that they didn't play Outside or Fade...then again they have been played on the radio so much that it was nice to hear the not so played out songs.<br /><br />A.F.I. - My first time EVER seeing this band and I have to say they were THE BEST of the night. I thought it sucked that KROQ gave AFI a half hour set while Rise Against took an hour, then again all the teenyboppers like Rise Against right now. AFI played ALL their hits including one from 1993. The pit finally awoke during their set and everyone in the building was standing for AFI. They said they would be back during summer for a tour. During the Kevin and Bean interview there was a hint that they would be at the Weenie Roast. Silver and Cold, as well as The Leaving Part 2 live....totally awesome!<br /><br />Stone Temple Pilots - I was really excited to see this band live as I had only seen Scott Weiland with Velvet Revolver. Into the second song of STP's set, my excitement turned to disappointment. STP just didn't look into it. First, Scott Weiland came out looking like The Undertaker from the WWE with a big black hat,black coat and a gray scarf. By the third song, Weiland was stripped down to a Mr. Furley type shirt, and black pants while sweating horribly. Between songs he would mumble about who knows what and the music would just start in the middle of him talking. Horrible horrible...My friend was watching from home and she texted me saying she is selling her STP tickets for New Years Eve based on this performance. Weiland needs to kick the drinking...<br /><br />The Offspring - Was excited to see this band as well as I have never seen them before either. Umm...Did someone force Dexter to "Come Out and Play" (pun intended) because he looked like he did not want to be there. Noodles looked way more into it than Dexter. They played all their radio hits and while the crowd was going off, Dexter would just sing and stare into the crowd. Their set was so boring I left half way through their set.<br /><br />My last acoustic christmas I saw NIN, System of a Down, and Korn and I think that concert was the best yet and nothing except for Radiohead back in August has compared.<br /><br />Here are some pics from the show...i'll post more later<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_yN6qub4W9XU/SUWiJpYvmQI/AAAAAAAAARE/oy6ZgCsLMVI/s1600-h/staind.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_yN6qub4W9XU/SUWiJpYvmQI/AAAAAAAAARE/oy6ZgCsLMVI/s320/staind.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5279804424773933314" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_yN6qub4W9XU/SUWiJX3P_OI/AAAAAAAAAQ8/Ri9h0W2ngeg/s1600-h/ra.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_yN6qub4W9XU/SUWiJX3P_OI/AAAAAAAAAQ8/Ri9h0W2ngeg/s320/ra.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5279804420070046946" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_yN6qub4W9XU/SUWiJVP5ZQI/AAAAAAAAAQ0/7QJkNKcuegI/s1600-h/afi2.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_yN6qub4W9XU/SUWiJVP5ZQI/AAAAAAAAAQ0/7QJkNKcuegI/s320/afi2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5279804419368117506" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_yN6qub4W9XU/SUWiJBOHrPI/AAAAAAAAAQs/-mFL04mVDvo/s1600-h/afi.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_yN6qub4W9XU/SUWiJBOHrPI/AAAAAAAAAQs/-mFL04mVDvo/s320/afi.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5279804413991955698" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_yN6qub4W9XU/SUWiIy7XBqI/AAAAAAAAAQk/xmO_fnvJT7g/s1600-h/acc1.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_yN6qub4W9XU/SUWiIy7XBqI/AAAAAAAAAQk/xmO_fnvJT7g/s320/acc1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5279804410155173538" /></a>ninjunkie951http://www.blogger.com/profile/06037158533731364656noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12247614.post-26494905767962768942008-12-11T18:18:00.001-08:002008-12-11T18:18:37.849-08:00Kroq Acoustic ChristmasNight 1...I will be there...8th Row Orchestra!ninjunkie951http://www.blogger.com/profile/06037158533731364656noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12247614.post-14050676968395119442008-12-09T08:02:00.001-08:002008-12-09T08:04:08.961-08:00Winter time is coming...I thinkI saw this posted on Drudgereport today and was shocked...I LOVE odd weather from hail to thunderstorms to strong winds...but am super excited if this is to occur next week<br /><br /><br />SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA - December 8, 2008 (OWSweather.com) Rare 50 year Arctic Blast Sets Sights On Southern California.<br /><br />With a week away, and a sure sign of things to come, OWSweather.com is making preparations on the server to handle the traffic from this next event. UJEAS is in line with the majority if not all the other models in keeping a near historical arctic air mass into the Southern California region.<br /><br />With a warm November, Southern California is finally ready for cold storms to make their way in. Resort level snow will be likely next week, and in pretty hefty amounts if things stay on track. OWSweather.com Meteorologist Kevin Martin predicts a 50 year event. While Martin is usually conservative on these events, the pattern highly favors it. "We are in a pre-1950 type pattern, "said Martin. "We know we are due for a winter storm sometime this year. The type we may be dealing with will be ranked up there with the known years before 1950, which set record low daytime temperatures into the forecast region. With this, may come low elevation snow."<br /><br />Forecaster Cameron Venable is seeing very cold temperatures in the Los Angeles areas as well. Torrance is not usually known for winter weather, thus making this an interesting event for Venable to track.<br /><br />"Temperatures in Siberia, Russia will be -81 degrees this week, "said Martin. "With those type of temperatures the arctic air mass has to spill somewhere. Our answer of the exact track will become more clear this week. All residents in the mountain communities should prepare this week for very cold, winter weather, with snow."<br /><br />Indications are a second, colder storm could hit near the 18th-22nd time-frame. The details on that will have to be sorted out.<br /><br />OWSweather.comninjunkie951http://www.blogger.com/profile/06037158533731364656noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12247614.post-43777838494542722282008-12-08T17:00:00.000-08:002008-12-08T17:05:46.125-08:00For the FishesOk so I am not a good pet owner...<br /><br />I had two fishes last week and this week they simply disappeared.
