Links for a day…(vol. 134): US appeal, Jon’s SA photos, Wurlitzer, Lego

Gun Shy Assassin have issued a heartfelt plea for Faith No More to tour the US:
“You wouldn’t even have to hit the secondary markets. Hit the majors — Boston, Washington D.C., Chicago, Atlanta, Minnesota, Houston and Dallas, Nashville, Tucson, Las Vegas (or Reno, if Vegas repulses you as much as it does me), Seattle, and maybe Boise, Portland, or Denver or some shit — and the people will come to you. Seriously. And you could even spread those dates out…over fucking months if you wanted. It could be like a year-long tour, and you could just play like two shows every three weeks or so.”
Jon Hudson has showcased some great photos of the South American tour 2011 on his Facebook page. Go check them out and go Like:

- Todd { Benrun, thanks for your reply. I figured someone on here might know what I am getting at. With Roddy, he strikes me as the very personable, outgoing introvert. He is usually soft-spoken. Yes, he is strong in his convictions. But he also seems to be really loose and playful. Just check out his dance moves on stage! And yeah, Gould is the mastermind. Highly structured, organized, conceptual, with strong command of highly technical details. I've read interviews with him in which he goes off on all the technical equipment and processes he uses and this kind of information just seems... } – Oct 19, 3:45 AM
- Benrun { I took a personality test myself just now...and I am the same as Bill, INTJ! I find that interesting in the sense that while I am a Roddy side project fan and Patton side project fan, it is Bill and his bass, lyrics, and songwriting that speaks to me so personally that I became an obsessive FNM fan, but also love everything musical that Bill touches....Harmful, the Rebirth EP, Fugly, Talking Book, Hayduk, even the music he just points out the direction towards. I think I had 3/5 of the same favorite Bowie songs as him too. I've never been... } – Oct 19, 3:20 AM
- Benrun { I studied psychology back in the day, but I don't speak that language anymore. I had to look those up...I think you nailed Patton, Gould, Puffy, and Hudson. Roddy could be several possibilities for me...definitely ISFP, but also ESFJ, ENFP, or even ENTP. As much as Jon is the quiet man, Roddy is maybe the most difficult to pin down. He's absolutely a really kind person, but he also doesn't take anyone's shit. Ever. Plus he's creative and takes some pretty creative risks (ie: Sasquatch the Opera). Thanks, this was a fun topic! } – Oct 19, 2:39 AM

- Bobby B Better { Actually, I take it back...Separation Anxiety is completely and totally awesome. I just watched CoS & SA back to back. CoS is really good but SA is something else. } – Oct 08, 5:43 AM
- ty { this no show from the band wont cut it. its obvious Billy is willing to do everything for the promotion of the record but others don't seem to be as involved unfortunately. the song doesn't fit the clip at all but it looks good and seedy to fit the mood of the song. interesting that the band decided to promote the record 12 months after the Sunny Side Up single and the Seperation Anxiety videos. and also, this is an E.P? if theres unreleased songs on it then what a shame it wont be released on cd! } – Oct 01, 4:24 AM

On LISTEN: Korn cover We Care a Lot (2)
- Benrun { I don't think anything good was added to this song. The trouble with FNM covers seems to be that no one ever captures the feel or intent of the song. WCAL is a punk, snarky F U song. This just sounds too serious and angry. The only FNM covers I've liked have been total re-interpretations, like Race to Space doing Stripsearch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dToGw9YAauM or The Sparteens doing Digging The Grave https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0GmvHcQ1YLg } – Sep 21, 2:03 PM
