I think it is extremely far fetched to believe they would let him do lead vocals.. come on now people.
How would that work? Unless it's a "Matt singing Black Diamond" kind of thing... "wouldn't it be fun if we did ABBA:s SOS and have the new kid sing the parts Pierce Brosnan PERFECTED in the Mama Mia! movie?""Mostly I think that people react sensitively because they know you’ve got a point"0 -

he did sound great on saturday. it's not about if he can't sing a particular song anymore, it depends on where the song is in the set.Hugh Freaking Dillon is currently out of the office, returning sometime in the fall0 -

Chad Smith watching his guitarist rock out with PJ just adds to it.

PJ probably felt sorry for Josh because of the way the Peppers canned him to bring John back right when they were starting work on a new album. I personally thought it was weird the Peppers felt the need to can Josh, a lot of their songs (especially more recent vintage) would benefit greatly live with multiple guitars, obviously that's why they had him onstage with them in the past...whatever, Josh will make some money at least and if it benefits PJ onstage, why not? Especially if, as some speculate, it helps keep some of the tempos down!
Very curious for Ed's new album, in and of itself of course but also to hear Josh's contributions. I don't really like the new single, it's a bit too poppy for my tastes but still intriguing and hopefully there will be 10 or 12 other songs that will undoubtedly have some gems, hopefully most!0 -

Spiritual_Chaos said:Kind of weird with Josh having been the guitarist of RHCP but is now standing behind the amps in shadows of a Pearl Jam concert, playing guitar in his own shielded world not to be noticed. Hehe.
He is great though. Nice waiver wire claim.Post edited by MayDay10 on0 -

The therapist in me was reading the responses thinking that some are upset about the family system being altered.
