Sasha Grey & The Roots
1. Dave, with all the Scott Weiland / Matt Sorum drama that's been going on, any idea if or how this will affect Camp Freddy?
I don't think that Camp Freddy will be in any danger at all. Scott is going to have his hands full with STP so he isn't going to be available for the shows coming up in May anyway.
2. So is the "Lessons With Dave Navarro" piece going to be a weekly segment?
It won't be a weekly segment but you better believe it will be recurring! There are so many incredible guitar players out there and we plan to have as many as we can on... When we do, I will be taking a lesson!
3. Did you ever think you'd or one of you would make that move and initiate Janes' re-uniting somewhere down the line?
I had always hoped so... Who knows? Maybe we never really broke up and simply take 5-7 year breaks! ;)
Our (The Spread Group) client Sasha Grey has been featured in The Roots' new video!

Hey....could be. STP never officially "broke up" 5 1/2 years ago...they were just on a extended break.
And look at them now!

:) Beautifully done - thank you for answering - that really is a lovely reply!! I am so glad for you that you are in a situation that you'd hoped to be in. Wonderful thing about time is that occasionally it really does allow us to move on.
Have a great rest of week DN.

There's another band that is planning on a new release this year with a tour to follow. It's only been 26 years since their farewell tour. That band? Oh, just The Who.
As long as you keep playing, and even afterward, I'll still be listening-and waiting for the next time that I get to see one of the greatest guitarists, and more importantly one of the nicest people, on stage. Even if there are "breaks" from time to time. :)

So I just read the news... Eric IS for a fact, on board for the NME award ceremony! It's been 17 years (that's longer than my lifetime here on this planet hah) since the original lineup has played together, so it is very refreshing news. You guys were on break... nice answer haha. Take it a step at a time, maybe you guys could I don't know, play a couple of shows across the U.S and I could finally see you guys. It’s all uphill from here? I hope so! Have a lovely week!! Hopefully, you made Matt Sorum work his fingers to the bone to help you find the outfit you will be sporting at the award show if you did go shopping for the event at his shop ;).
Much Love,
-Kirsten

In a statement on his blog published on Sunday, Navarro said he, Farrell and Perkins "have been speaking regularly (and) have decided to focus on what's most important ... The music."
His comments doubled as a preemptive strike against journalists and bloggers inclined to bring up old quotes in which the band members trashed each other.
"Everybody in the world has said something over the top due to an emotional charge," Navarro said. "The bottom line is that we have been getting along great and are moving forward with our personal and musical relationships."
