Jacknife Lee Pt. 2: Keeping 1000 Lights on for All
Episode description
Neil Diamond put Stones in Jacknife’s shoes
Musicians with No Stations - Anyone can do Anything
Jacknife loves The Cure and The Banshees and Drums
(We’re off to a Good Start!)
Artists willing to Alienate - to do what they want!
The Gender Change Box – Expanding the Arsenal!
Documenting Discovery – Being a Band - Not a Brand
The Cure’s 1st album was their live setlist
On 17 Seconds they swapped instruments - No set formula
Discussion is healthy but Discussion takes time!
Vocalists are Tricky!
Musicians as Tightrope walkers – Without Safety nets
Risks can be Creative but not for Careers!
Good bands fight to Discover – Take something small and Enlarge!
Robert Smith focussed everyone by saying, ‘this will be the Last Time.’
Fragility / Self-hatred / Being weird
Pornography almost killed The Cure but reanimated them.
Club Smith or Club Tolhurst, had Simon Gallup singing Kate Bush
Doing It Like the First Time!
Our New album - Fresh and Exciting!
Guest vocalists working Outside comfort Zones
Bobby Gillespie and James Murphy at Home - Arrow in Topanga
New bands are mostly missing the drummer’s personality
(We’re off to a Good End!)
