In 2005

MickWe went back to writing yesterday. Back to work in 2005. We are spending the greater part of this month writing and fleshing out new songs for the record and plan to finish up the album in February. As a result, we are unfortunately canceling our Feb 17th Key Club show. We plan to reschedule in March and then begin to do some out of town shows finally. No list of dates or cities available yet. Tomorrow, the Camp Freddy boys and I are shooting off to Vegas again for a Sony Playstation party. Just a one day trip. Camp Freddy will be again playing at the Key Club in L.A. on January 27th. The proceeds from the show will go to support the people in South East Asia. It is a public show and there is no guest list. It will be first come first served, but nobody will have to wait because of industry types cutting ahead for a list. There is no list. Also, I have received information from a reliable source that Mick Mars is still doing the Crue tour, despite Internet rumors regarding his health.

Be well,

DN

Kyle, are you a typepad - jacker?

Dave,
Just saw the Bloody Mary video, I'm excited
it reminds me of Deconstruction, especially
the outro.

New musical sweets for Feb yum yum!!!

I just got the promotion I was supposed to get 5 months ago. I am pretty excited about this... thought I would share.

Brett
P.S. Jezebel what's up?

Posted by: Brett at January 4, 2005 10:08 AM


Kyle~ awesome, glad to hear that recovery is an assured thing! best to you man.

Pony~ ROCK ON, new tat, new promotion, getting rid of baggage... 2005 is gonna be your year man.

Posted by: Rantz at January 4, 2005 10:11 AM


Have a fun but safe trip!

Posted by: Angel at January 4, 2005 10:58 AM


wow ok bravewords seems to be about 8 or so years behind there! Newsflash bravewords: John Frusciante is currently the guitarist of the RHCP. When they report stuff like that I wish they would cite all the band credits the person has.

Speaking of the RHCP, Anthony Kiedis's sobriety date was Christmas eve, going on 5 years! Rock on Tony!

I'm proud of you too, jezzi! congratulations!

Kyle - yikes! sorry to hear that man.. my cousin was scalded on his arm with boiling water when he was a kid and has some crazy scars from it. It could have been much worse for you, but I'm glad it wasn't! Take care of yourself, and use that Aloe Vera (whole leaf is the best)

Have a great time in Vegas D-dogg! Thanks for the update on the Panic Channel show. :0)

Hope everyone is doing well... I have a sore throat and think I'm coming down with something... nothing some rest and good nutrition won't cure!

Hi Dave!
Haven't been online for a few days, but I'd like to say that Bloody Mary is fab, and I reckon it'll do well in the UK if its released over here. Can't wait to buy a Panic Channel t-shirt.
Any chance of some Panic Channel gigs here in the summer?
One other question: In a picture from a week ago you had a Louis Vuitton guitar strap. Do you have them specially made for you? What other designer guitar straps do you have?
Also is it true that Carmen and you are trying for a baby?

Dave and Fam,

Loved the video! Cant wait to see more.

Wishing everyone a healthy and happy 2005!

Posted by: Laura at January 4, 2005 11:24 AM


YIKES!!! How rude of me!! Anthony....Congratulations on your promotion, I am sure it was well-deserved, now spend that bonus on some plane tix, and come out to see TPC in March!!

Brett...you stud!! I am fine, just wish I could find a 'normal' boyfriend ( remember that line from As Good as it Gets?)

Mouse, thanks for the encouraging words, 13 years, and I still remember EVERYTHING!! In fact, that's the bad thing about being sober, you start remembering all the painful stuff that made you want to get high in the first place. I'm not as clean as Dave, there are still temptations I give into, namely MGDs and Melontinis, oh well, little by little I guess....

Hi Dave & All!

Is that a pic of Mick? (That's what it says when you scroll over it.) It doesn't look like him at ALL... it DOES look like someone from Spinal Tap.

Amazing what lighting/angles can do.

I just wanted to say "hi". Dave, best of luck with all the upcoming events, and I'm anxiously looking forward to the tour!

Love,
-Denise

Posted by: Denise at January 4, 2005 11:35 AM


Pony-Congrats on the promotion,good things come to those who wait,eh.Get that microphone quick and get some guitarin' down.

Dave-quick Q,you must be extremely proud of the work you did with Jane's and RHCP(as well you should be),but do you find some of the negative comparisons folk make between the music you do now and the music you did over ten years ago a little tiresome?

I know everyone's entitled to an opinion,good or bad,but it must be a drag sometimes.Still,the good comments wouldn't be as good without the bad.

I forgot to say that too, congrats on the promotion Pony!

Jez - now THAT is recovery, you were just totally honest with yourself and not denying anything. go girl! :) but of course admitting is one thing, acting to bring about a change in your behavior is another.
so glad that you're doing good and enjoying your cherubs :)

I think I just dipped my toe into a new world here...

Will Dave read any of this?

Posted by: Nik at January 4, 2005 12:14 PM


Hi 67ers! I hope everybody's new year is off to a good start!

As for you Dave, we all love you. And you must come to DC, so that I can finally see you live! That would definitely make my year!

Hi Nik,it gets pretty lively here,its a great place.

Just read this in The Sun tabloid(note Tabloid) newspaper:

"Ex-Baywatch star CARMEN ELECTRA and her RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS hubby DAVE NAVARRO are trying for a baby.And brave Carmen's not worried about childbirth.She says:"I can't wait to be pregnant-i always watch Birth Day on the Discovery Health channel.""

Get busy Dave

Carmen is on Ellen right now telling funny stories about her and Dave's vacation and how he hates to be touched...She's got a great laugh!
She's going to teach Ellen how to do strip tease...should be entertaining.

Posted by: Natalie at January 4, 2005 12:47 PM


ok, now my curiousity is piqued!!! Dave HATES to be TOUCHED? By whom, and under what circumstances, where, when? Details, Mr. Navarro, details...inquiring minds want to know.....

jezebel(when I think about you, I touch myself...name that tune)

Posted by: jezebel at January 4, 2005 01:06 PM


I don't know much about Carmen. I saw something on MTV about Dave & Carmen and they seemed to really love eachother in a natural and unsuperficial way that I thought was cool. I'm just finishing 'Don't Try This At Home' and it's kind of left me a little confused about Dave. I still think he rocks but some of the book has shown a shallow side to things that always gets me down.

That's not a dig at Dave, I hope he reads my serious question on the Crue thread.... I dunno, the book has made me really think about things though and that's great right?

Posted by: Nik at January 4, 2005 01:12 PM


Carmen mentioned to Ellen about going on vacation, relaxing at a spa & getting massaged.

Carmen explained that Dave hated to be touched in reference to him getting a massage.

Posted by: itanja at January 4, 2005 01:21 PM


I hear ya Nik(about the book)
I took the whole book as a stark example of how addiction changed a person for the worse,the way a person thinks,treats people,treats themselves,also about the people who stick by that person while they hit rock bottom,until the person can find a silver lining to hold onto to pull themselves out of the darkness into a better,healthier life.
I kept thinking to myself while reading it"this actually happened,he went through all this"

Its as honest as can be,an unglamorous,dark,nasty,depraved,brave,heartwrenching account of hope lost and regained.

Steve L

Posted by: MOOYYAA at January 4, 2005 01:27 PM


"the book has shown a shallow side to things that always gets me down"
really? what specifically in the book has you feeling this way? just curious. If anything I think it shows his vulnerability and how human he is.
I liked the way it was done with the transcripts of conversations, letters, and photos... very creative, made the book interesting to read.
I love to save old letters and things myself, and now that I have a scanner i've decided to change my blog where all my entries are handwritten to give it more of a warmer old-school diary feel, complete with doodles and drawings.

Posted by: mortisha8 at January 4, 2005 01:38 PM


Jezz ~ the song is by the DiVinyls. Not their best song. Always liked Romeo Void better for kick ass post-punk made by not-very-attractive-female-singers.

Man, that sounds kinda wrong and shallow, don't it?

Posted by: Rantz at January 4, 2005 01:39 PM


Congrats to everyone with sobriety time. Im 25 living in CT. I have 6 months without dope and am really proud. I commend those who are truly pure after such an experience. I have a hard time at recovery meetings because some people spite me because of methadone treatment. I think im clean, and have worked hard. With just the program I ended up homeless, and strung.
Now, Im clean. Am I entitled a chip/keychain? I should have six if so. Whats the verdict. Oh, Ive recorded with Noimann mics, they are really professional but pricy. Find a shop with a good return policy and do that recording! Ill send ya my demo if your interested

Much love all

congrats pony!! you totally deserved that promotion eariler than you got it...but at least you did get it!! 2005 is going to rock hardcore for you!!

i understand dave totally in the sense of not wanting to be touched by strangers...it totally freaks me out...you don't know where their hands have been or if they've washed them etc. it's very very creepy to me.

much love to everyone here!!
-love, emily

Hi, just found this site. I am a huge Dave/Jane's fan, so i was pretty stoked. Interesting to hear everyone's input on a common thread.
greetings from texas.
happy new year, leah

Posted by: Leah at January 4, 2005 02:09 PM


about the touching thing.. it's not like he's totally "keep your distance, don't come near me".. he shakes people's hands, gives hugs and all that. But now massages are different... they are really nice and quite personal and I remember reading somewhere that his craziest adolescent sexual experience was falling in love with a back massager.

Posted by: mortisha8 at January 4, 2005 02:27 PM


Note for muisc trivia freaks...The Divinyls video for 'I Touch Myself' was filmed at a nuns residence!

Btw, the lead singer for the Divinyls, Christina Amphlett, wasn't unattractive at all, besides she certainly wasn't in the same weight range as Romeo Void's lead singer! loool

I Touch Myself... that's my signature karaoke song, folks.

And Nik, you express your opinion, like me. I like you.

Posted by: NightBird at January 4, 2005 02:53 PM


Massages!! My sister in law is a massage therapist, I had Bell's palsy a few years ago, causing facial paralysis, and it disappeared three days after her massage. I had my first facial last month, and after the treatment, which included a foot massage, I professed my love for the girl!!

Thanks, itanja, for clearing that up,(by the way, my kiddles LOVE Tippy!)

I know it sounds hypocritical for me to say I am 'sober' when I still drink, but I won't go into that..

As far as Nik's earlier comment about 'shallow', I do have to admit that the passages about the hookers that Dave and Neil were amusing themselves with one night that thought they had made a lasting friend did kind of sadden me...but it just shows that Dave didn't try to sugarcoat ANYTHING, he is a bit sardonic, as any of us who have ever called him might have experienced (That 'incognito' thing isn't working out for you very well)

jezebel(156 stars baby!)

Posted by: jezebel at January 4, 2005 03:15 PM


A little late on this one, but the new Judas Priest guitar riff as some one mentioned previously here =Mountain Song with a change up. I see the similarities. This is strange, but I thought I'd share..... I actually see Rob Halford walking around Hillcrest (where I work) once in awhile. He walked by me once and I threw up the devil horns (respect) he just smiled and kept going. I was speechless talking to Dave... what the hell do you say to Rob-he's a Heavy Metal monster-LOL?

On a lighter note, respect to all of those who are living clean/sober/trying too/taking those first steps-Right on/respect!

Posted by: Wendybird at January 4, 2005 03:34 PM


Hey jezzi,

Glad the card arrived & the kids liked it. Yes, Tippy is one spoiled turtle! If she was a cat or dog, she'd have a Vuitton collar!

I had a lot of fun doing the card. I used to make all my Christmas cards by hand, about 40+, but not anymore.... your card was one of the handful I 'designed' this year! That Robert Smith photo is one of my favourites, I've used that shot in so many cards! lol

Btw, do the cherubs know who Dave is???

take care,
itanja

Posted by: itanja at January 4, 2005 03:35 PM


Itanja~

having met the singer for the Divinyls, I'll agree that she wasn't as... robust... as the singer for romeo void, but she (in person) is not what I'll call attractive in the slightest. Photos (speaking from personal experience) can be made to look incredible.

I like both bands, just categorized them both as having unattractive female singers and thought at the time that they never broke through in the level that befitted their talent because the world is a shallow shallow mud puddle that thinks if a woman is fronting a band, she sure as fuck better be HAWT.

Romeo Void still kicks the Divinyls ass though ;)

Posted by: Rantz at January 4, 2005 03:40 PM


hmm, hates to be touched eh?? Guess a hug from my hero when i meet him is out of the question then. LOL! actually, my 17 year old son has OCD, he is the same way. So i can understand that.

Hi Rantz,

Having worked in the fashion biz for many years, you'd be surprised how many famous models aren't all that attractive in person, of course many have 'hot' bodies, but if it weren't for the artfully applied makeup, lighting, stylists & top photographers...well....let's not forget the imaging people who touch up the scans! lol

The top 'imaging' guy in NYC gave an interview to the New York Times last year, he talked about all the fashion magazines he works for & all the celebrity/model shots he's touched up. I would think that most people do realise that most 'stars' aren't as perfect as their photos.

As far as musicians go, Madonna is a perfect example....I used to see her a lot in my clubbing days in NYC, she was a regular at Danceteria. She was very tiny, skinny...basically very non descript in person. But put Steven Meisel behind a camera armed with a studio filled with top-of-the-line fashion professionals & she's a goddess! LOL

Of course, the camera LOVES certain people...they are clearly photogenic & genetically perfect specimens. Dave & Carmen for example!

Interesting fact: most celebs are much shorter & thinner than their photos would lead us to believe.

Living in NYC, star sightings are not unusual here. My Keith Richards sighting was a shock, the man literally looked like a walking cadaver!

take care,
itanja

hello Dave and family¡¡

finally I´m back to the reality :(
I went to vacations, just a few days to clear my mind and rest in peace :)
I wake up december 25 take my car and drive to houston
everything was great a lot of fun
and finally i found DON´T TRY THIS... I am spending long time reading... but what really made me laugh like crazy was twggy ramirez dreadlocks (that´s the only live animal i´ve ever used) men that is so funny.
and f**k back to the reality, broke up with my boyfriend, and i don´t even know why.
hope everybody are ok
Anthony congratulations seems this is your year

love to all

Itanja, they didn't blink when they saw Robert Smith, I guess they thought it was just a funny card, but they recognized Dave in the middle because I have shown them a pic before of my favorite musician, Malik said it first...Hey Miss D., that's your rockstar!!

"Lyn,
No birthday updates today?"

Mike, I'm on the east coast, and I post the birthdays in the AM. When Dave gets up, whenever the hell that is, usually noon :) EST, he updates the site and the birthdays get pushed back to the previous post.

Way to go Pony.
When I go to the show on the 27th how do I know who you all are. I'd like to see you all.

keep it real,
Matt

Posted by: Matt at January 4, 2005 06:27 PM


To all those on the West Coast, Whats up with the Greyboy All-Stars. They used to do some funky jam stuff similar to Medeskis bubblehouse stuff; if ya like jazz funk fusion check em out. I dont get the chance here on the east coast. Night is here on the east. I decided to get a chip despite others negativity at aa. I read Daves book for shits and giggles, and found more to the ending which I feel is unfinished than the drug war stories. The book only illustrated the man is human. Dont castrate someone for the past. Its nice hes created this site for everyone. Try empathy.

Much love

Posted by: boots at January 4, 2005 06:34 PM

Any label interest for TPC yet?

Mortish8 - Stars? Roses? They sound great.

Boots, I think you meant "castigate." No one wants to castrate, Dave... really. I mean, anyone? Raise your hand now?

Posted by: NightBird at January 4, 2005 08:41 PM


Don't ask me how (gotta love the internet), but I came across these jokes & I felt like I had to share some. I had a kinda lousy day & they cracked me up. And please, take no offense. I got much love for the drummers.....

What's the last thing a drummer says in a band?
Hey, guys, why don't we try one of my songs?

What do you call a drummer with half a brain? Gifted.

Why to bands need Roadies? To translate what the drummer says.

What's the difference between a drum machine and a drummer?
You only have to punch the information into the drum machine once!

How many drummers does it take to change a light bulb?
One, but only after asking why.

And this one isn't even so much a joke as it is true:
How many drummers does it take to screw in a light bulb? Five: one to screw in the light bulb and four to talk about how much better Neil Peart would have done it.

What do Ginger Baker and 7-11 coffee have in common? They both suck without Cream.

Did you hear about the guitarist who was going to a gig and locked his keys in the car? It took him two hours to get the drummer out.

Posted by: Lori_in_PA at January 4, 2005 08:48 PM


I don't hold back, do I? I apologize for my bluntness, i think it's a scorpio thing.
sometimes being direct is good.

and to answer my own question......
"D-dogg when is your exact sobriety date?"

duh me, nevermind it's in DTTAH.. May 2000
AWESOME, 4 and half years. That is 54 stars for Dave!

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
* * * * * * * * *

it will be a special occasion when it gets to 67 stars (only a year away).

go D-dogg, go D-dogg...

Posted by: mortisha8/mouse at January 4, 2005 08:48 PM


No offense meant, Mortisha, but there's only one time frame an addict can reference, and that's Just for Today. I don't even remember my actual date-all I can do is remember the year it was. I do recall relapsing many times dreaming of that far off time in the Future when I would be normal. The only way I was able to maintain was concentrating just on that one day. But that's just me.

Posted by: Lyn at January 4, 2005 09:04 PM


I hear you lyn, no offense taken.
Isn't it nice to be reminded of how far you've come sometimes? Reminds you that you're doing it, gives you hope and faith in yourself that you have indeed stopped using and don't need to use. It's a positive thing to focus on.
Forget what happened before, it's about what's going on this time around.

The reason I'm being like this today is 4 years ago today my best friend in the world and former boyfriend decided he wanted me to take him to rehab. it's a thing we have where every jan 4 no matter where either of us are he gets a gift that captures a recent positive time in his life from me and keeps it. He has vowed that the collection is going to be HUGE, bigger than anyone else's.

this is a little late, but THANK YOU DAVE!

i just have to express my excitement to hear that you feel the same way about David Caruso on CSI: Miami. my favorite character has always been Calleigh, but it's been very hard to watch that show lately. i've been saying it for months and it's so nice to hear someone else say it for once.

bummer about the february show. at least we get to see camp freddy soon. and TPC in march? for MY birthday? how'd you know...? ;)

"but that's just me" EXACTLY!!! The worst thing ANYONE can do is presuppose what someone else needs, or is going through...or what is important....

I NEED to know what day it was, exactly, that I made a deal with God, I would give up speed, he would keep my son safe. It's what gave me the strength to kick out my son's dad, who was still using, and to be strong through his death threats, his jumping out of trees, his kidnapping my son in the name of love, and to let go of fear, because I knew if I went back to speed, my son would be taken away from me....Whatever my temptations or faults are today, nothing compares to the sellout I was in the name of that particular drug...

I do not judge others, I do not pretend to know their battles with demons, I am struggling still with my own

I remember this verse from the Bible, if your brother feels that eating meat is a sin, how dare you offer him a steak, or something like that...

sorry, am feeling a little angry, wow, wouldn't it be great to have a line , or a joint right now, I guess I will settle for a beer in the privacy of my home....I still need help, and I don't pretend to know the answers, or be an inspiration to ANYONE...

grrr

I finished the book! I can explain the shallow comment!!!

As I read through it I got this feeling that despite the mess Dave got into he was always thinking about the book and how he would come across. Also I kept seeing lots of strips of just Dave and I started to wonder how someone can get so self obsessed you know? Getting upset because you feel small after seeing a movie about how big the universe is etc etc that to me is...well...silly. I can see now much of what happened can be attributed to addiction. The last few pages that describe how he is now were very pleasing but the book still leaves me with a nagging doubt and here's where I'll sound like the book!

Dave said about his check out film that he wanted to re-shoot parts that he wasn't happy with and then there was a big gap from finishing the project to putting the book out so did he go back through and edit some stuff? Or is this what I'm supposed to think because that's the honest way he was/is?

Like I said before, it's got me thinking so how cool is that? I think Dave would be pleased and all of this is not meant to disrespect Dave or Neil in anyway!

Posted by: Nik at January 5, 2005 12:56 AM


I meant '..not meant to disrespect Dave or Neil in any way!'. See I'm doing it!! I thought, oops typo but hey I spewed it out through te keyboard so it's real I guess.
A few minutes went by and...ARGGGGG got to change it!!!! to any way, that's two, yes two SEPERATE words!!!!

Posted by: Nik at January 5, 2005 01:30 AM


Hey all!

Just dropping by to say hi. Been busy so I haven't had the time to ketchup on what's been going on in here but I will, later.

Dave, I'm glad your vacation went well, you certainly deserved it!

Long time lurker/first time poster.

I too am a big CSI fan, though I've got to say I prefer the original. CSI: Miami is good, but Horatio Caine is just too (unintentionally) funny for me to take it seriously. CSI: NY hasn't made it across the atlantic, yet.

You said you're planning some, "out of town", Panic Channel shows for later in the year, so, along with everyone else, here's my quick Q.

Q. Are you thinking about playing any Panic Channel shows in the UK?

I saw you with Jane's Addiction in Nottingham on 20th November 2003 (Best. gig. ever.) There are several different sized venues, so whether you guys want it small and intimate, club-sized or huge, I'm sure there'a venue for you. Remember, there's more to this country than just London!

And speaking of drugs, one of the stars of the photo booth, and the author of the infamous line "I don't like the drugs but the drugs like me", Mr. Marilyn Manson is 36 today! I thought his role as Christina in Party Monster was incredible, so creepy. I'd like to see him in more movies in the future. Keep up the great work Brian!

"I love the smell of napalm in the morning, smells like......Victory!" Yes, one of best actors, Mr. Robert Duvall, is 74 today! Is it me, or do they give out stars a lot quicker nowadays on the Walk of Fame? His was overdue, didn't receive it till 2003, but at least it's there. A direct descendant of Robert E. Lee, this former roomie of Dustin Hoffman, IMO, is vastly underrated. Tom Hagen as the consliere in the Godfather, Gus in Lonesone Dove, Bull Meecham in the Great Santini (How bout THAT sports fans!), and perhaps his best role, as a sobering drunk in Tender Mercies in which he did his own singing and guitar playing-all have left great impressions on how to do the job right. Keep up the Fantastic Work, Mr. Duvall!

play one song and then leave without a word.

That would be good (hee hee).

Hey 67’ers
Hope everyone had a great New Year’s Eve and best wishes for 2005!
Well, for what it’s worth, here’s what I think about the tsunami…I live in NY. Before 9/11, people were in their own world, pushing and shoving to get what they wanted, not concerned about the person next to them. During and after 9/11, the way New Yorkers and the entire nation came together was incredible. Even sitting in traffic or waiting on line to give blood, people were more patient and kind. Everywhere you turned, someone was willing to lend a hand. Then, as time went on, that “community� feeling started to fade. Now, the tsunami has brought about a GLOBAL feeling of community during a really bad time, with the war and everything else going on in the world. People from all around the world are focusing on helping others instead of turning inward and being selfish. Like my daughter Kristen so eloquently put it while we were discussing it this morning, “This is Mother Nature’s way of telling humans to stop being A-Holes� I completely agree. There are so many more parts of life that are important instead of greed, pride and self-involvement. Thanks to all who are helping, including Dave and TPC.

Nik, I love you, love you, love you.... and that's all I have to say about that.

Lyn... Today is also the birthday of Brian Warner, aka Marilyn Manson.

Posted by: NightBird at January 5, 2005 05:28 AM


Robert Duvall also kicked alot of ass in that movie about the preacher who was on the run because he beat somebody (I think) to death with a baseball bat. I just can't think of the name of the movie. I HATE when that happens. I know it will come to mind at work & won't be able to post it...lol

He also seems like a really cool guy in real life. Like you could sit down and have a beer with him. Very underrated actor, I agree.

Posted by: Lori_in_PA at January 5, 2005 05:39 AM


Hello everyone! I've been lurking for quite some time and decided to make a New Year's Resolution I can actually keep-to get to know you all.
The past year has held so many changes for me including leaving my husband and immediately becoming a single mom of three, and loving the hell out of a man who had to leave to be with his family in Mexico. I'll just wait impatiently for his return and wait for new doors to open for me in 2005.
Have a beautiful day everyone!

Posted by: Jenniffer at January 5, 2005 05:48 AM


thank you FreAk for putting CFR up. i missed a couple of shows lately, i'm glad i can still listen to them.

remember your 'top 5 must have records' i asked for a little while ago?..well, i'm still a poor student, so i can't buy many records at once. ..but now i bought Marilyn Manson, mechanical animals and the Cramps, Psychedelic Jungle.
i always walk around with the lists you made and from time to time i enjoy looking at it, thinking 'i have this one, and this one, this one i'm gonna buy next month'! these kinda things can entertain me for days...
i was listening to MM yesterday, and i was sitting on my floor, music real loud, knees under my chin..and sort of moving from site to site. completely out of the world, enjoying my new record..and suddenly my mum shook my shoulder. i didn't hear her come in and felt embarrassed since i was looking like a mental patient from a movie
she never asked what the hell i was doing, so i guess it didn't look as rediculous as it felt...
i'm going to have my lunch, very hungry..! love y'all!

Posted by: Emma at January 5, 2005 05:52 AM


Nik!! I second Nightbird! Which means, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, AND I love you!

Jennifer and others, WELCOME!!

Cori! Welcome Back! How were the plane rides?

Emma---Happy New Year my sweet! Are you back at school?

Noonie Chantelle aka Kirsty!! Where are you? My kids visited some Holland websites yesterday, Be on the lookout for letters with pictures of windmills,tulips and castle gardens !!

Lori in PA...I hear you, Robert Duvall is one of my all time favorite 'father figures'

DAVE!!! Good morning! Have fun in Vegas!! Hey, are you going to have time to stop at any tables, or get a new tattoo? I think a TPC logo is in order!!

jezebel(Hi Blanca!! )

Posted by: jezebel at January 5, 2005 06:39 AM


Thanks NightBird, ever noticed how easy it is to say stuff like that in this environment?

I love you too!

Places like this prove that people want to connect on some level so why is it so hard for so many to do it outside these lovely bubbles?

I think I'll put that question to Dave too!

Posted by: Nik at January 5, 2005 06:45 AM


no jezzi, still not at school. one more week off! i should be working for school right now, but reading i way too much fun. i'm reading my favorite childhood books, the cronicles of Narnia; The Horse And His Boy!

i guess i posted my card later then Kirsty! hope he will arrive soon...windmills,tulips and castle gardens, that should be fun for your kids! and it must be great for them to receive cards from all over the world...i think i would have loved it when i was younger. but then again, i would have loved it to have such a sweet teacher as you, dear jezz!

Lori, the movie was The Apostle, in which Duvall wrote, directed, starred and was Oscar nominated (and should've won), and funded with 4 MIL of his own money. His investment paid off, nicely:).
Nightbird, my first birthday wish IS for Marilyn :)

Posted by: Lyn at January 5, 2005 07:17 AM


~Hiya Dave and Family~
I just want to say to Boots and Jezzi and anyone one else who is sober that you should be so proud of yourself. I am down 5 years and it was the hardest thing in my life to do and everyday i do not do it is a day for me to proud. There is not a day thta goes by where i do not want it or crave it but i know who i was when i did use and i did not like that person. The first step was admitting you have demans and confronting them head on we have done that so look at how STRONG we are.
I thought the book was awesome and i realted to so much of it it touched me in so many ways. I think Dave was so brave to put this book ut there and risk the judgement of his book. He is just a honest and open guy as we all know from the site and i think that is so rare and inspiring. I can not speak for anyone else but when i was an addict i was 2 different people the person i am now is no way the person i was back then and i think that is how it is with many addicts and the book reflects that.
Kyle so sorry to hear of your accident hope you will be feeling better soon.
Take care everyone \m/ Rock On \m/

G'mornin everyone -
Just wanted to check in and say congrats to Pony...and props to Boots. Keep up the good work!

Oh duh, Lyn. I just proved that I skim this board. Yikes. I suck, huh? Anyhoo, it's also Robert Duvall's birthday... (ha)

Actually, Nik, I tell people that in real life, too. Perhaps that's why they look at me all wide-eyed and then hightail it in the other direction? :-)
PS Where are you, Nik? I'd be more than happy to profess my love to you in person. Haha.

Stay strong, y'all!

Posted by: NightBird at January 5, 2005 08:34 AM


Ylais,

Thanks for thinking of me with the magazine. I have told myself I can't buy any more dave memoribilia until I get the stuff I have displayed. I have so much cool stuff that needs to be framed and mounted and stuff like that. I need an interior decorator or something.

Much love to everyone!

hola, Dave!

so, if you finish the album in February... does that mean a summer release for the Brits?

oh, and something really quite random... I haven't actually got my paws on your book yet but one of my friends who has told me (wonderful little trivia nugget, kept me happy for hours) that all the Navarros come from somewhere in the Basque region. any opinion on the politics going down there?

AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH, you make a self derogatory remark, I agree, and now I'm the heel :)? Are all women like 7 different women in one? I'm just wondering. Yall are such a trip. Love you all, but yall CAN be complex creatures :) But it's ok Sweetie, I made a mistake back on March 17th, 2001. I'm not due for another one till later this year.

I'm not complex, I'm a man!

I'm confused.... a condradiction and I'm
being a c...

I like it here and I was joking before you fire
anti-chauvanist idiot warheads at me!

Oh, and so I don't offend, the word that is dotted
out rhymes with sock (I hate the other word you may
have thought I meant)

Posted by: Nik at January 5, 2005 12:41 PM


Yes, Nik, you must always clarify when you are joking here. You're a fast learner...

Lyn.... ass-whooping coming your way. And don't get all excited. I will be wearing a sumo wrestler fat suit, with Joey Buttafuocco pants, and a Seinfeld puffy shirt... there will be nothing hot about the beating I'm gonna give you. And then the 6 other me's are going to finish off the job.

And Nik, was that word cock? (Is this board censored or something?) Yeah, I like that word better than the other c-word. But they both have their place. :-p

Posted by: NightBird at January 5, 2005 01:04 PM


Are you guys fighting? Can I play? I have been told I am argumentative by nature...

See, the internet has a few flaws in its communicative powers, the main one being its difficulty in conveying the subtleties of sarcasm...

I have suggested emoticons before, like the mooning smiley, or the group hug smiley, my favorite is from the xiola board, the beating of the dead horse smiley...

Adina, it occurs to me I have not told you lately how fab...... you are, and lest you think the dots mean fabricated, no, I assure you, it's fabulous

jezebel( I have a place for the c...)

Posted by: jezebel at January 5, 2005 01:09 PM


I like dotting out words.... I like dots....
The dotted out word has more impact sometimes.

NightBird, I will not be tricked into asking you
why you like cock... oh shit I did! Oh shit I said
shit oh fuck it oh now look what you've done!!!!!!

Posted by: Nik at January 5, 2005 01:16 PM

.........is the other "C" word Cuckoo? Crazy? Confused? Conflicted? Complex? ..........I touch....... myself........Dildo........Cock........

Posted by: Lyn at January 5, 2005 01:28 PM


Lyn your'e right, this is boring now but I want to stick around to see where you'll strike next.

I think we all have a liking for a little confrontation
huh?

Posted by: Nik at January 5, 2005 01:38 PM


Bring it on! Confrontation keeps me breathing, brothers. Especially when I'm in a boy-hating mood. And, oh yeah, it's one of those days...

Now who wants a spanking?

(WHAT is wrong with me today?)

Posted by: NightBird at January 5, 2005 01:53 PM


Damn! that was the most fast loss of love I ever had!

It's getting late(ish) over here so I'm off to lick my
wounds, I'm almost too afraid to check back in tomorrow!

...but I will (hee hee)

Awwww.... Nik. I'm not THAT scary. I'm teeny anyway... can't do much harm (or so it would seem). And nobody said I didn't love you anymore...

Hi Dave & 67family!!

Just got back from beautiful Orlando! I haven't caught up on the posts from the previous days. Thought I'd let you all know I was at the grocery store and there is a beautiful pic of Dave and Carmen in Hawaii in Blender mag.!! (Snoop Dog on the cover) ;)

Hope everyone had a great NYE.

Hugs everyone,

Shit, I know I am having a God-awful day today, and I am in a pissed off mood but come on people? We are supposed to be supportive of each other!!!! This place keeps me sane, & I am sure I am not the only one. This whole argument? The “Girls against Boys� thing going on here?

Nightbird-

It's all good, I get it (in no way did I mean any bad vibes to you/anybody). I deal w/bad vibes at work everyday so why would I want to put out negativity to a fellow brothers or sisters here.
So to get to my point.....
my escape is (6767). I/other's enjoy seeing/reading/feeling/being inspired/ appreciating/something/someone(6767's) being supportive/positive/doing what they do. I'm just not into reading people's verbal arguments/attacks on each other here. I'm sure there are other's who feel the same way too. I just wanted to SHIFT the attention back to, that this is an awesome community! That was just my two cents. Respect to all!

Love,
Brett

"How can Blender magazine already have a pic of Carmen and Dave? Aren't they a monthly? Don't they have to go to press early? Didn't Dave JUST come back? Wow!!!!!!"

Jezzi, I was thinking the same EXACT thing~~!

That would be very odd! I just got that BLENDER issue LAST week in the mail, weren't Carmen & Dave suppossed to be in Hawaii last week? (Though, on 'Ellen' yesterday, Carmen did mention going to a spa in Santa Barbara.)

There is NO WAY a monthly mag could have slipped a photo in that quickly before going to press.

I confess I haven't actually sat down to read the issue yet...I just checked the photo, the snuggly shot looks to have been taken on location for a movie or a TV show.....I noticed the set lights in the background.

Definitely not a vacation snap.

Is it me or is BLENDER trying to be this generations version of CREEM magazine, with those 'funny/sarcastic'' captions under EVERY photo....not to mention the rather witty article titles: "Avril Flashes Her Hooters"...."Lights! Camera! Sucking!"....? loooool

Holy many many posts batman! I really miss you guys. It feels so good to be "home". All this "frisky" talk is so reminiscent of the old school Wednesday night Spread chats (T? You listening? WHOPPISH!). They were way out of control, and therefore, oh so much fun! ;)
Sue, your daughter is a smart girl. That was quite an observation and it's so very true.
Jeniffer, Chris, hi! Welcome!
Lori_in_PA: Those were some funny jokes, and speaking of funny, Nik when I read, "I'm not complex, I'm a man!" I was rollin! That made me really chuckle and I truly needed that!
High five Pony! Good going!
Melissa, Boots, Jezz; I'm right there with ya. I appreciate the little things so much more now, like being able to remember yesterday. My younger days were quite a ride. I'm lucky I've been given that chance.

On a darker note, I've had a REAL bad few days. My husband's grandma (she raised him) is in the hospital and they took a biopsy today. It's not official, but it looks like lung cancer. I lost my dad to lung cancer 5 years ago so I am so afraid. I could see what lies ahead. Please keep her in your prayers. I just really don't want her to suffer...

Spreading the love to all of you,
Deena

Deena... It always saddens me to hear of someone's sick relative. I'm sending my best wishes to you, your husband... and most of all, your husband's grandmother.

And thank you for classifying what went on here as "frisky talk"... I'm glad you got it! Rawr, baby! Now smile...

Hi Dave,

I can't imagine a time when the stars were aligned for the inception of JA. My question is this: Do you ever,after your new life and philosophy have been incorperated, artistically and personally, want to look into Eric Avery as a possible participant in new endeavours?

Be well,

Of course I'll be there, bitch! I think our relationship is now at the point where we can seriously dig at each other in the name of comedy :).
Just don't forget your Swollen Pickle, big boy.
And I fired all my handlers. They just sat around and sucked me dry anyway. I'm going to personally contact you, just as soon as I find my karma :).

Lyn-No shit!! You too? I busted my people online checking their stocks & taking too long of a lunch break!? So much for good help these days! So the Rainbow Room brother!, are you your down? So I am predicting that 1. I will be going and I will leave even earlier than before. 2. I will go to the bathroom before I get on I-10 Santa Monica BLD! 3. I should contact an Attorney before I leave (Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas referrence here) and 4. I should take off the next day so that the party continues way into the AM. Overall forcast, is that we will be going deep into the Pulic Eye that night! Did I forget that it is my Birthday on Jan 27th?

I take no responsibility for what will go down, did I mention I will be represented by an Attorney!
LMFOA!,

Happy New Year!!!Hey Dave, have you ever used an EMG 81 pick up? I know you like those hot gain pick ups....

Posted by: chaos at January 5, 2005 11:11 PM


You kids and your digital bitch-slapping...

The thing I keep pondering is... I've been in the games biz for 10 years... why the FUCK am I not at the CF/PS party in Vegas where Dave's playing?

Answer: Because of the company I work for. And we'll leave it at that, since this is a public forum.

Now if you'll excuse me, I must procrastinate from doing 'ho' work by blowing massive amounts of crap up

(digitally speaking, of course)

Deena, so happy to have made you laugh.
So sad to hear about your husband's grandma.

Good morning, Nik! I'm in a much better mood today... :-)

Lyn (who is male) and I, Adina (who is certainly female), both read your posts again, and we are stumped. Are you male or female? Please don't be offended. For a few days after he started posting, people kept referring to Lyn in the feminine. The name Nik could also go either way, but it would be nice to know how to address you, sir or madam?

Still loving you, boy or girl....

I'm a boy!

Dave,
I love Mick Mars. He is one of the most underrated guitarists. Everyone has to read THE DIRT. It's great.

Quick question:
¿Do you have any gray hair?
just askin'.

Later,
Mike from NYC

"oh, and by the way, which one's Pink?"

Syd Barrett, that's who-he's 59 today!
(Quick, where does the name Pink Floyd come from? Two GEORGIA blues men, Pink Anderson and Floyd Council)
In one of the most tragic, sad, stranger-than-fiction stories in all of Rock history, Syd was the original writer and mastermind of Pink Floyd. Acid destroyed the man's brain, pure and simple.
But, unlike a lot of others in the industry that experienced drug problems, he's still alive, with his own site.

http://www.sydbarrett.net/

In one of the more stranger episodes in Syd's life, he showed up at the studio, long after being ousted from the band, while the band was recording Shine On You Crazy Diamond, which was a song about him losing his mind! Wow, to have been a fly on the wall in that room.

Happy Birthday Mr. Barrett! I'm glad you're still alive!

Posted by: Lyn at January 6, 2005 04:56 AM


I told you he was a boy, Lyn. Always trust me on those things...

Posted by: NightBird at January 6, 2005 06:30 AM


Ok, I am back from a night of candles, no electricity, damm those bills

I KNEW Nik was a boy, and here was my first clue, the post yesterday where he SAID he was a MAN, also he is in England, in Cornwall, Adina, because he said that too...I'm such a reader...;

Itanja---as to Blender reference, there is a story that talks about how to survive a rockstar marriage, and it has quotes from Sharon Osbourne and Dave Navarro, so they have pics of both of them with their significant others, but observe the arms of Dave, which serve as a timeline, No batwings, no Don't try this at home, and no wedding date around his neck, also short hair, I guess early 2002? How close am I, Dave?

Happy birthday as well to a man who helped me with my own "Epiphany"....Thank you, his name mean's God's love...My kids will be eating Three King's Cake today, the lucky one that finds the baby, without swallowing it, gets a special prize

Deena, my prayers are with you and your family...you do so much love spreading, here's some for you xxxxooooxxxx

my cat (Arie) looked really bad yesterday, when he walked he almost fell a couple of times..looked a bit drunk..and we all thought he was gonna die...but today he's still with us! he's almost 19 years old and his sister died last year, so we thought it wouldn't take long..but he's still with us.
poor thing

not really a dramatic story, sorry
...merry and bright as ever!

my boyfriend has trouble with his roommate..he is 7 yeas older so he's in a different stage in his life, it's hard for me to help him, to give good advice...since i don't really know what's been going on between him and his roommate the last couple of years.
i'll see him saturday, hope he's feeling better by then

fam, good evening to y'all and talk to ya later

Deena...sending (((hugs))) and prayers your way.

Posted by: Cori at January 6, 2005 08:33 AM


ohw, i completely forgot!
Deena, i wish you and your family strength!

Posted by: Emma at January 6, 2005 08:36 AM


Hi Everyone,

DEENA - My prayers and best wishes go out to your family. Cancer is an awful thing, and I hope your grandmother-in-law has the strength to avoid or overcome it for as long as possible.

We've had some recent health issues regarding our families and friends too. Goes to show that you really have to cherish every moment and count your blessings when things go well. Because everything can change in a moment...

I don't have much else to say or contribute today. The conversation is certainly interesting enough already! I'm just putting away Christmas decorations and trying to get organized. My new job starts in a week and a half, and the perfectionist in me wants there to be SOME sense of order in my life before I begin.

Just one thing: I know what Itanja means about BLENDER magazine. I could actually go on and on about music mags. I was supposed to grow up to be a writer for one of them, but it didn't happen... (not yet at least). But I have a whole SLEW of opinions about them, and ways that I would change or enhance them.

I have to laugh when I read articles or reviews where the writer is trying SO hard to be clever and to display his/her vast knowledge about music and pop culture, that he/she winds up saying absolutely nothing. Some music mags are notorious for this. (cough-SPIN-cough)

That's my mini rant of the day. Be well, everyone!

Love,
-Denise

Lyn said he thought Nik was woman. So Lyn, are we skimming the posts again? :-)

Posted by: NightBird at January 6, 2005 10:16 AM


Who are you? I don't even know you anymore. I asked, no, begged you not to change. We had something beautiful, and sure enough, you take it and destroy it.
Why must I be cursed?

Posted by: Lyn at January 6, 2005 10:23 AM


Hey guys..
Deena-much love and good vibes to you and the family, especially hubby's grandma. Hopefully it will turn out to be something else.

Any East Coast (NY area and those who’d travel here) 67’ers—UPCOMING CONCERTS if anyone wants to get a group together:

Nine Inch Nails (presale SOON)!
U2 (tix on sale later in Jan I think according to the fan club)

And the Allman Brothers are doing the annual run at the Beacon in March, I think I am going to go on Saturday the 19th , tix onsale tomorrow (Friday the 7th) at 10am eastern.

PLEASE DAVE! Come here soon!

Let me know if anyone is interested!

Sue

Manq Here....

Hi Dave and Everybody,

I happened to visit the Whitesnake website yesterday for shits and giggles you know? It has to be the worst looking and most poorly designed website I have come across in recent memory. Please check it out.

So Dave, you know if you ever happen to be like the 47th guitarist in Whitesnake....get in there, take the money, disassociate as much as possible from that horrible site and kick Coverdale's ass!

Manq out......

Posted by: Manq at January 6, 2005 10:48 AM


Hey, I'm still beautiful, Lyn. I don't know what you're talking about. *kisses*

Susie, I am at NIN with you!!!!

Nik, my newfound faraway love, have I frightened you so, that you no longer wish to share your thoughts with us? Fear not. I am quite the lamb... Ask Lyn and Jezebel. They know...

Posted by: NightBird at January 6, 2005 10:51 AM


Hi family¡¡¡¡¡
Deena my prayers are with you, hope everything go well to your family.
My fish "Citla" is sick maybe she lost his eye, the vet said she´ll be ok, she gonna look so bad :(

have a great day

love
Diana

Posted by: Diana at January 6, 2005 10:52 AM


Oh.... I feel horrible for your fish. It's hard enough being a fish, but to only have one eye? I get so sad about sick animals. I wanted to be a vet, ya know? (Okay, since I've established my sarcastic nature, none of that was sarcastic. I truly love animals.)

Posted by: NightBird at January 6, 2005 10:56 AM


Night bird¡¡ yes is to bad what happen to Citla-fish today she come back home she stay with the vet for two days
and you know what¡¡ I think his boyfriend another fish called zackwylde maybe is cheating her I buy another fish yesterday a white female i call her Pam and zack follow her all day. hahahahaha he is a bad fish but I love him he is my favorite one

Posted by: Diana at January 6, 2005 11:41 AM


Just a curious question, how many of you 6767ers have checked out the doheny site that Dave has linked here?

Billy has a blog as well, he has posted his review of last night's Camp Freddy show, and one of the responses has a link to pics from last night...(oh, and my cherubs are in the Rogues Gallery, if you like that sort of thing)

Adina...such a skimmer ;0

jezebel( pimpin')

Posted by: jezebel at January 6, 2005 11:52 AM


Nightbird, no I'm not frightened!
I just felt odd about commenting on dying cats etc
with what is going on with Deena, I have / had pets
(rats are my greatest love) but my attitude towards that
is far different to a fellow human/family member so I
didn't want to misrepresent myself on that subject you
know?

Again Deena, I hope things go as well as they can for your husband's Grandma.

See I can be serious, but I promise not to do it too
often!!!

Posted by: Nik at January 6, 2005 11:58 AM


OHMIGOD!!!! Nik, we are fated to be good friends. My rat, Katrina, waves hello to you from New York. Did you check out my MySpace profile? (I sent you a link, I think) There are pics of my rodents there.

See, animals keep me sane. Very often, I do not like people. So I'm probably more apt to respond to a story of a sick pet than a story of a sick family member. It's not personal... or even intentional. It's a subconscious thing that I recognize to be a part of my personality. However, my heart does go out to all of you with sick loved ones, human or otherwise.

Diana... you have a fish named Zakk Wylde. You are awesome! :-)

Posted by: NightBird at January 6, 2005 12:37 PM


I didn't get a link from you...
If you like rats you might like a film called 'Willard'.

It has lots of rats in it and they kick ass, although
some get 'hurt' as part of the plot that had me screaming noooooooo nooooooo!!!!

The comments regarding Deena were from my perspective and were not meant as a dig at anyone else here, I was
just explaining myself! All this seriousness has exhausted me, I'm going to watch 'Three Days' and have a glass of red.

Posted by: Nik at January 6, 2005 12:52 PM


I love so much the animals too, prefer animals than humans. I live alone so my pets are my family. I have two dogs max calavera (cocker) and ruby electra (pink french poodle) 4 turtles Niky Tommy Vince and Mike (the crue turtles). and my fishes Zakk, Citla, Jhon5, Pam, and one salamander (Randall)

Posted by: Diana at January 6, 2005 01:04 PM


Saw "Willard".... among my favorites considering I also adore Crispin Glover. And if you click on my name, NightBird, I think it will take you to see my little babes.
