Thank you for checking out my site! You rock! BTW my gf wants a doggie like yours... So thanks for picking a small dog.

Dave would you sign my guestbook? That would be the greatest thing ever. I will be posting new bios as they come in.

Dave....

the name is really great, I've checked the site and....TO THE OUTSIDER, TO THE UNLOVED, TO THE ALONE.....well, those are words that really touched my heart. By the way, the name is simply great!!

....As for your answer about Europe countries you like ( England-France-Austria) I suppose you didn't have any time to visit Italy to give such an answer.....

YOU ROCK!

Respect,

Hmmm...the panic channel link isn't working for me :(

I assume this is where you are all seeing this intro? Any suggestions on how I can make this work?

the PaNIc Channel

the P(erkins)aN(avarro)I(saacs)c Chan(ey)nel

Sounds good...

I think the name is pretty kickass :-) I always thought it'd be hard to read stuff off cue cards and those award shows too - who writes that stuff anyway? That's too bad you didn't get to play any games - maybe you can get them to send you some to test for them.:-)

Poor puppy, you giving her some attention now? Our dog cries whenever my mom leaves (he loves her best) He's a minature dachsund, called Karl.

I'm looking forward to hearing everyone's music on here - rock on. Have a good Sunday everyone.

Dave,
Personally, I don't care what you guys call it
as long as you are making music( I do dig the name though). I support you no matter what. Have a good cheat day.

Respect,
Edgar

Dave, there's just one thing I really wanted to know. Why the hell did you jump off stage in Amsterdam Paradiso? You could really have hurt yourself (I'm sure you did hurt yourself, but it could've been a lot worse). And you really scared the shit out of me.

The Panic Channel is a great name.

Take care.
Love and peace, Jenna.

Dave... i think u liked the 'controlled chaos' part of my analogy about Panic Channel, but i have 1 more analogy.

I think Panic Channel is a form of release. when someone panics, it is a form of release, the body overloads and expresses itself in the form of panic. therefor Panic Channel is a form or method of release to prevent overload! without a release(panic) normal functions would not occur!

hope that made sense? i hope you like my little analogy!

heLLo! All

Good to see u back here dave! Shame u cudnt play that metal gear solid 3! Oh well..guess we'll av to wait and see its release..!

In the meantime, thx for all the feedback (and u dave for posting it) about the Art I did on the Panic Logo. Never really thought u'd like that one..! Well u proved me wrong!
Congrats to whitePony and kelly for their work, this is really cool. Will av to take the time to av a better look, and sign up everything.

And for today, I've got a nice sound...I finished the recording I started in the studio (not supposed to say that...! ;-) ) of " Avoiding The Angel". This is a great simple/Very Complicated song! I never went before so deeply in all the sounds and the production this song requires! it's ART Dave! So I put as many layers, reversed intro, noiZes, processed drums, bass layers..etc!

1. "The Panic Channel" is a most righteous name, I'm surprised no-one else has used it before (: kind of makes me think of a sort of Disney-meets-Silent-Hill-meet-The-Outer-Limits, y'know?

2. Major props if you got to meet any of those game designer people.

3. Aww, poor doggie... our dogs ran away four days ago and still aren't back, I'm really quit shitting myself. The second they get back I'm nevr letting them out my sight, but your dog must get so much attention it's untrue (:

4. *cackles* you have AOL? welcome to the lower levels, man (;

love, Soph. xx

woa!

the panic channel SDOING!!!
Caught me by surprise

very good (as ever)!
i've posted some loops

me too i want to hit the charts before hearing the now zen reproduction of frik6767!

i would like to hear the opinion of all you guys about my songs (?)
http://www.soundclick.com/bands/5/dozzomusic.htm

you're right lisa!
maybe i can escort you (and carmen, or even better only carmen)as a guide in your next italy tour!

i always admired you as a myth
i start to admire you as a man and it's even better!

love
dozzo

hey guys, if you don't have the equipment to record music of your own, you could probably hook something up through hammerhead. It's a "rhythm station" and i've had some real fun with it. It's a free download at http://www.threechords.com/hammerhead/ and i recommend it to everybody, even those who do have the equipment. it's really fun to play around with it, i love it. there's also something called "LoopXchange" that we can use, it posts it on the hammerhead site, with a bunch of other people, i havent ever used it, so someone else can do some reseach on it.

i hope this helps, i think this will really help those of us who dont have the equipment and want to contribute.

heLLo!

Thought u might like that PanicLoGo!:

The first images that came into my mind when I saw the name the Panic Channel were a few Twilight Zone type freaky things, and the Halloween movie where they have that wierd TV ad come on. I forget which Halloween that was. You know like it was taking over the tv, and influencing ppls minds. Guess there was an x-files episode along those lines too. I think more in images, but like the way you've eloquently described it.
Interesting about Panic as being a state where you are inspired, and that's a good thing versus Panic as overwhelming nervousness, hysteria, and something to be cured.
I've been getting more and more into John Frusciante's music and so I did think too of the channeling aspect.
I'm happy you mentioned him on here.
Great play on words, and ideas. I also though of PC being a joke like PC is politically correct=what you get on tv. really love this site. love to all.

Just love the name! and really love the symbol too.
This has probably been asked hundreds of times already, but where did the symbol come from?
Really like the analogy fo writing as channeling too! Can't wait for the music now!!

Just to dwell on the past for a moment ... somebody from another forum just showed me this pic and I was wondering if you could elaborate on the when, where and why it was taken ...
I guess Lolla sometime ... but it is so cool to see everybody in one pic just hanging out :-)

Hi Dave!

I read somewhere, once upon a time, that when you and Carmen went out on your first date she was a little taken aback because you had a shovel or ax or something strange like that between the seats of your car. Is that true? What was that all about? If true, I can just imagine the thoughts that might have gone through Carmens head! :D

Freak...every time I think you've done the coolest possible thing, you somehow manage to top it....very, very nice. You are really so talented!

I could set up a voting system when the time comes. I build dynamic websites professionally so it wouldn't be a problem at all.

Thank you for signing my guestbook, it meant so much.

Now that you have found Carmen do you find it hard to write lyrics? I met the woman of my dreams and now have the worst case of writers block. I don't know how to write a happy song. Any ideas?

Hey Dave I'm getting married on saturday August 7. You seem to have a great relationship, is there any advice you could give me?

Dear DAVE,

Please, allow me to say this again: I f*cking love you, man!

This Internet jam thing is a dream come true! Thank you very, very much for making it possible!

R E S P E C T !

Dave,

Hendrix, Page, Gilmour, Ash, Smith are your faves

BUT...

Back in the day, when you were into metal, who was your favorite shredder?

Another boring, cheesy, technique question, I know, but the metal background shows in your solid (and totally under-rated) rhythm playing.

Cheers!!!!
:)

FreAk I just downloaded your AngleZ song, that is KICKASS. Everyone here is great. And I'm hearing so much talent. If I can get my life to let up and get my gear hooked up right, I hope to work with some of you on the jams.

Have fun, Enjoy life

hey everyone and anyone
first post, first in a lot i guess. dave, i just wanna say that the panic channel flash intro is very nice, i felt a few shivers, its nice and effective, and sounds good too. can't wait to hear some stuff.the internet jam thing, its gonna be brilliant. i wish i could get involved, but i suck, i wouldn't wanna ruin it. keep up the good work, i love this site.

toodles

bass player available here!

love,
Valerio

Dave, you had posted: "Perhaps someone can help me keep track..." However I can help out with this, I volunteer.

dave,
speaking of make-a-wish, i tried asking you by email last year, but never got a real response...i was wondering if you could share anything about adrienne wilson with me. literaly, anything. she was a very special friend of mine. i sent you a somewhat lengthy email regarding her, and i still have it saved if you wouldnt mind me sending it to you again(?)

thanks,
-andrew

Wow!! i feel like i haven't posted in forever...even though it's been only 24 hours or so. so much to say

1. i think the panic channel is a great name...it's also a play on the term "PC" as in politically correct...so another interpretation and association with the media influence idea discussed earlier can be derived from that. and for those who don't like it...remember...according to the 2003 issue of spin...jane didn't like the band name Jane's Addiction...and it's constantly voted as one of the best band names ever...i'm personally psyched for the music as i always love something new and GOOD to get into

2. as for those who keep insisting that perry "made" dave navarro...are we forgetting that his talent drew perry to him? w/o dave and the others...perry would've been a great poet and that's it...the music of jane's is what speaks to me and moves me. that's all b/c of dave, eric/chris, and perkins...just as all of you claim perry "made" dave...dave made perry...it was a symbiotic relationship...and i hate how people blame dave for the break up of jane's...did anyone ever stop to think that maybe perry said "screw you guys...i'm going dj-ing"...don't point a finger in a situation you have no insight into...accept janes as a great band, enjoy their music, mourn their loss...but don't wag a finger without any direction

i think i'm done with my rant...i just hate when people try to pretend they know everything about something cause they read it on the internet (which is FULL of fallacious information)

just wanted to give my whole-hearted support on the new band, the band name, and say that i'm totally enamoured with everything you've done thus far and that i anticipate it getting better as time goes along!

-Emily

i just remembered...i saw janes for my first time a year ago tonite in DC. i rode 8 hours for it. it was the best night of my life. ever.
thanks so much.

Dave,

Sorry to hear about the jane's addiction breakup. I was backstage at the DC Lollapalooza show last summer with Chris and you all were great! We grew up together and I just moved back to CA. Could you pass the memo on to Zaney Chaney (aka "Ron J.") to look up his old, old, old friend Erica (Eureka Anne) in Santa Barbara when you next see him? THX and I wish you all the best with the new band.

Peace,
Erica

Haha I had fun with loops.. too much fun. Critisize all you want, i have an email. And I know my timing got off alittle about 3/4 through it, but i have no musical background and it was fun anyway!

http://www.angelfire.com/creep/aggrivated_pixi/dudemyloopssuck.html

So like... the "new" link (one on the bottome)on that page is to my attempt of a song.

Yes its my bass guitar and yes its my voice. dont worry, i dont sing, just say 2 different things so take off the earmuffs.. Oh well, if you have anything to say i have an email address. =) And as usual.. be inspired to outdo me!

--Bonnie

Dave

What I would really like to know your opinion on the kinks. Were you ever into them at all?
Sorry you did not get a chance to play Metal gear I was looking forward to your review of it.
Oh! Dave ya know what I today mastered playing ac/dc "BACK IN BLACK" just wanted to let ya know.
As much as I enjoy the guitar I am quite far from a prodigy. I'm more of the guy behind the guy type of guy

Rep 6767!

Giovanni

Heeey! Since Dave gave me permission to put up the music vids on my site, i began. Mind you my site is majorly UC.. but hey, have fun watching the video without haveing to dl.. it is fully loaded and ready to play in like 2 minutes for me. If you try to stream it it will chug more that likely. And sorry I had to stream from 6767 dave, angelfire wouldnt let me upload it and i dont have a real website. =)

--Bonnie

Ps Report any problems to me at my email! Thanks~

Dave,

I was rereading the article that first intoduced you to me. The article from the July 2001 Spin Magazine which contains excepts from the upcoming book. The article mentions the Spread video you were making which evently gave you a reason to live. Is there any chance we can ever see this video. It is after all the one thing that saved our hero.

Also I am wondering if now that you are clean if you are allowed back at the playboy mansion?

Hi Dave!

Was the "Goodbye" scene (from before you went on tour) on TDDUP staged? Some fans think MTV made you film that (after you had already returned) to help tie the story together. There are quite a few clues that support this theory. Would you like to come clean?

Hello Dave. Thanks so much for checking out my site. I was so excited to see that you had thanked me in your last post. :o) What can I say? Like I said before, I'm a huge, huge fan! I hate to ask you because I know how busy you probably are, but do you think you could sign my guestbook sometime? It would mean so much to me. It would like make my whole week! ;o) I hope you have a great week as well. Take care!
Love always, Kelli

Dave... I'm lovin' the flash on the PC site! I keep replaying it, 'cause it's just that cool...

As for other interpretations of the name... I'm so with you on what you've posted. I'm also liking the PC analogy... as in Personal Computers... because, depending on how you use them... they also have their channels to fear, inspiration, terror, spirituality, etc.

By the way... found some cool software that might be useful with the cyber-jam project... it's free unless you want to buy plug-ins...

Hope everyone had a great weekend! I know I enjoyed the hell out of my cheat day. ;)

Have a great Monday...

Peace,
Tim

The Panic Channel... reminds me of Public Image Limited, which is cool. Did you ever get into Keith Levene's playing? It's truly something else.

Everyone should go check out whitepony's site. It's pretty awesome. Good job! What a great idea.

VERY IMPORTANT ARTICLE TO READ:
"Mini Revolution: EPs are emerging as the secret weapon for artists like Maroon 5 and Metallica" by David Browne
ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY 8/6/04 (Tom Cruise/Jamie Foxx on the cover)

the link is not up on ew.com yet but this is something you guys should really consider...

"The EP has never been an especially satisfying configuration: It lacks both the ambitious sweep of an album and the heady rush of a single...Suddenly, though, the EP has returned & this time with a more market-friendly reason for being. Generally containing anywhere between four & eight songs & costing less than a full CD, it's ideal for an era in whic the song, not the album, rules. (Sorry, Yes and Coheed and Cambria fans.) A batch of fresh EPs demonstrates how this vintage format is being newly exploited for the ADDD (audio digital deficit disorder) age..."

which then investigates:
"EP AS STOPGAP" grade: B+ (for Damien Rice)
"EP AS CONCERT SOUVENIR, ESPEC. OF INTIMATE SHOWS YOU MISSED" grade: B (for My Morning Jacket; C for Maroon 5)
"EP AS MOVIE SOUVENIR" grade: C (for Metallica)
"EP AS EXPERIMENTAL WAY STATION" grade: B+ (for Rufus Wainwright)

...definitely a worthy read for musicians wondering what approaches may be successful & effective ways of appealing to a wide fanbase

The Panic Channel definitely is a frightening name I'm sure that's due to the CNN comparison you brought up (I would have said Fox News Channel though haha no offense, of course)...but in all seriousness, congratulations. I'm glad things are really working out & seem to be on the right path.

I dunno a writer by the name of Jay Woodruff in the current Entertainment Weekly refers to the USA's ridiculous FCC agenda as the "United States of Hysteria" & I couldn't agree more.

My point being-- I dunno I guess it's just The Panic Channel reminds me of the "United States of Hysteria", not regarding the FCC but just the general state of affairs & this horrible administration's effect on our information sources.

I'm sorry my perception of current events is blinding my artistic judgement and tolerance for your band's name. I know, I suck. But hopefully like Carmen, I will come around to appreciating the band in due time...

I guess my disgusted notion of the administration's effect on our information sources turns me off to 'panic channels' & maybe that's why i don't like the association with some great musicians i admire...

sorry to be dramatic, but that is the interpretation i'm coming up with

PS EVERYONE GO SEE "GARDEN STATE"! It's an amazing movie...definitely what "Lost in Translation" could have/should have been if the characters' lives were examined more closely...I really dug LIT but now I really don't feel that way...Garden State is incredible...mark my words, if Zach Braff is not up for any Oscar nods, I'm leaving the moviemaking business forever! (i work for a hollywood producer right now, among other side projects)

Hey Dave!

I love your "Trust No One" album.. and now im trying to find your Deconstruction project.. but i cant find it in shops or online.. You got any suggestions on how i can get it?

Have fun Dave! you rock!!

Hey Dave, i know what you should do as far as releasing your music...

Revive SPREAD ENTERTAINMENT as a record label (remember when you were going to release Metal Machine Music on your own label for charity?). Get a distribution deal with one of the majors (BMG, Sony, etc...) and you're set. That way, you can sell on your website AND get it around the world to all your fans far from the USA.

If Pearl Jam can do it, so can you guys.

Hey Dave...
So, being that I love my tv shows...I record Charmed so I can watch it again...and I just watched the episode you were in Dave.
Playing at the club...it was great...thats the first time I feel in love with your music...anyways...
just one quick question about it...
Did you like doing something like that, where you are playing at a club within a television show? Is it a good way of promotion or do you think it makes it seem a little unreal?

Just wondering...anyways

Love Always
Liz

Hey Dave!

I watched 'the rise & rise of Marilyn Manson' on TMF last night and was quite surprised the he played football for his school team, I would never have thought MM would have been intrested in team sports. So my question is are you into any team sports, if so who do you support?

p.s. didn't like the name at first but it's starting to grow on me.

peace & love to all

Matt ;0)

Hello, DAVE!

Hello, Community!

I´m very excited about our musical project, but since I´m a singer I´ll probably contribute to it a little later by adding my mean howlos and sexy whispers to the final mix... However, I have already started writing some lyrics.

Here they are:

DEAD STARS

The stars look so beautiful tonight, I said
“Yeah, but don’t you know that most of them are gone,
they’re dead?�

And that’s how she started to murder my dreams
But it’s true, I reasoned
maybe she didn’t want to hurt me at all
it’s just a fact
like “fire burns� or “tears will fall�

Most stars are dead,
It’s true I saw it on TV
It was on the Panic Channel or on Discovery
Stars are so far away that
by the time their light reaches our planet
they are already dead

Kinda like my feelings for this woman
and the things I meant to say
By the time they finally reached her
it would be much too late

We didn’t kiss that night
I went home by myself
I couldn’t stop thinking I was walking under dead stars
As I passed my own fuckups, my own regrets
And cheap hotels and topless bars…

Couldn’t stop thinking to myself that I was also dead
Too much nada inside my stomach,
too many thoughts inside my head

But there was a insatiable hunger too,
not only pain
And that meant I was very much alive
and maybe – just maybe
I could try it all again

And so I did as I rose from my ashes
And fell again
And swam and lived and died
Through an ocean of pain

Most stars are dead
It’s a simple fact
But still I must have done the resurrection act
At least a billion times
I redo it when I’m singing
I’m reborn in every rhyme

Most stars are dead
It’s a simple fact

But what that bitch didn’t know is that
Their light is pretty much alive
Sometimes it burns
In all I see
It’s always burning in my mind
It just won’t let me be

So maybe she should have studied the sky a little longer
Maybe I could have been a little stronger
It doesn’t matter anymore...

I’m thankful to be what I am today
And for the wonders I have seen
(Although I don´t remember half the places where I’ve been)

I’m thankful for the pain
For the light, for the shadow,
for the sun and for the rain
And for the bipolar ride that made me what I am today
It’s all good, it’s all part of the game
And the truth that’s in my bones
Can’t be taken away

Blessed I am with fire
That burns both hot and cold
Besides…
There are new stars being born this very moment
Or so I’ve been told…

__________________________________________________

OKAY, now I´d like some help with editing these words. Or maybe you guys wanna add something to them? It´s all good, go ahead. Also, are the parts that are supposed to rhyme REALLY rhyming? lol

Don´t forget, I am "creado I regalo de Rio de Janeiro" (although I live in São Paulo) and English is NOT (I reapeat!) NOT my first language. So any help would be much appreciated.

Also - what should the chorus be? Maybe we will all figure it all later.

OK, I already plan to write more lyrics, just please give me some feedback so I can know if I´m in the right direction or not - okay, peeps?

And what do you think, DAVE? I´m very curious about your opinion. Be mean if you have to... lol ;O)

Much love, respect and gratitude from
Luiz.

Good Morning Dave....Good Morning Community!

Slubby...you can probably find deconstruction on ebay...that's where I got mine!

hi all again. hola!
so we could see the Panic Channel as Dave taking over tv, nay the world! :D
okay, attempting to be more serious now:
1)Dave, which Charmed episode were you on? I have never seen that episode.?(maybe I missed it, or because I'm in the UK it hasn't been aired?) I would love to see that.
2)White Pony's site is cool. White Pony, I left a message, I just remembered I was Little White Pony, it's totem animal reference. I suppose I still am, but I don't go telling people about my involvement with those matters much anymore. Has yours got anything to do with that type of thing?
3)and Dave does your White Unicorn have anything to do with that?
4)I just caught Flea in a film on TV in Psycho, as Bob Summerfield I screamed out "It's Flea It's Flea!". Yet another coincidence, because I swear I usually steer clear of the TV! but these past two weeks have had lots of related coincidences in them. Are you guys still good friends? Any thoughts about them playing at the convention, well I hear they did..I'm in UK remember!
5) The Venus in Furs video, wow! Where did the image ideas come from in that?
cutting myself short, because i could ask tons of questions.

Luiz, those are very beautiful lyrics.
I just read them a few times.
