Speaking of Aerosmith (and I rarely do), what is the deal with all the drummers being MIA? Lars Ullrich, Joey Kramer, Larry Mullen. They must be hitting an age wall.

Last I checked, Lars Ulrich is currently drumming on tour with Metallica in Europe. Their new album is one of the heaviest yet and he seems to be doing just fine. I think drummers do need to keep themselves fit on a level of an athlete though. Guitar playing and being the front man of a rock band selling out to stadiums also isn't exactly easy either if you want to do more than just stand their and play, which would suck the energy right out of the room.

Dave Navarro is sitting out the current Jane's Addiction tour due to health reasons too. 

I didn't go see them at the Xcel a few months ago because of that. Navarro's sound is too much of the definitive sound of the band. The fill in guitar player seemed to do a fine job, but it just sounded like an imitation.

Yeah, I don't think I would see them without him either... I was surprised they were touring without him tbh, but what do I know?

At the end of the day, it comes down to this one fella, T-Money. He's going to St. Paul, seat re-arranging be damned. You see, this fella, T-Money, he's a straight shooter. He's the face of genuineness. Is that a word? Who cares. T-Money gets it. And for all those who will be in St. Paul, do yourself a favor and find him and thank him, as there is only one T-Money.

At least PJ is factoring in seniority. Aerosmith doesn't care about that this tour. 

They will make it up to the fans on the next farewell tour. 

I having a feeling more and more legs will be announced.  Similar to how Elton John & KISS are doing their farewell tours. Milk it as long as they can. 

It's awful hard to miss them if they won't go away.

The fill in guitar player for Janes Addiction is Josh Klinghoffer.... the guy who currently tours with PJ. He cant be that bad, right?

He’s talented! He made Retrograde for me in At. Louis pounding those big drums! And his cover of Nutshell with Mike was awesome.

I saw JA without Navarro last fall when they opened for the Pumpkins. Band was great, especially bass and drums! Perry was a little weird. His banter was strange, didn’t sound all there and his vocals were buried in the mix.

His version of Buttercup with Stone during his opening slot was pretty good too. I wish they would have done it at one of the shows I went to.

Last time I saw them was 2010 & Perry was weird then too.. I can only imagine where he's at now.

You got me on that one! That's right. I totally forgot. He's a proper fill in for Navarro. You can't replace him but he did a great job from what I've seen on video. Maybe I should have gone after all! lol.

Nutshell was an aweseome moment in Nashville

Had Perry ever NOT been weird? But I embrace his weirdness anyway. The late early 90s wouldn't have been so strange without his influence.

The JA show I saw last fall Josh joined them for a song or two but Troy Van Leeuwen was filling in for Dave. As far as subs go that is pretty goddamn great.

I saw them in Tucson back in March. Was disappointed when I heard Dave would not be with them, but then they had Josh Klinghoffer fill in and I knew he'd kill it - and he did. He's carved out a nice little resume for himself with RHCP, PJ, and JA.

What would be the incentive of me staying in the club if they got rid of seniority?  I think the mass exodus of 20+ year members would hurt them more than the new people they add because of it.

Exactly. Seniority stays in the 10club. get over it.

It was!  Josh should just cover AIC songs.  He was eerily really good.  Looked a little like Layne too!  And not when he was healthy.

Perhaps the best option is to go all in on pit tickets. I did that and scored. I prefer to stand at badass shows anyway.

Had a dream last night about getting my seats. Same 300 section but 20 rows back. I’ve clearly been spending wayyyy too much time on these boards if that’s what my subconscious is focused on.
