Paul Cook
Guest: Paul Cook. Played the "clean" version of/ Friggin In The
Riggin/ &/ Silly Thing/ in-studio. They bantered back and forth
about who did the better recordered version of /Silly Thing./ Paul
is in L.A. for ten days. Steve kidded him about how miserable
London is & how Paul lives only a few doors down from where he
grew up. Steve and Paul have been friends since they were 10. They
used to pass each other on the street walking to different
schools. (Paul was in the "smart "class, Steve was in the "dunce"
class.)There will be a celebrity-studded 50th birthday party for
Jonesy this weekend at a secret location. Chrissie Hynde will be
there, and (maybe) John Lydon?? Steve and Paul talked about the
alleged fight in a UK passport office twixt John and Jimmy Pursey
(Sham 69) Paul recorded some songs with Phil Collen from Def
Leppard, and has also produced a few young bands recently - the
**Rifles and Le Scenes.

al. Jonesy was thinking about calling his Mum and she called him
yesterday. It was the first time they talked in 3 years! John said
he was just into "25 year olds who wanted nothing"right before he

Billy Corgan
Billy's playing at the Henry Fonda Last night and tonight.

Billy Corgan
Guest: Billy Corgan. Billy diagnosed the cause of Jonesy's itchy
legs-mites!! "I had mites twice," sez Billy, "happens from
sleeping in bad hotels and on strange girls' floors." Jonesy
swears he's done neither lately. Lotsa talk about past lives,
religion, the Bible, death, flying, Chicago, scientists,
holograms, girls with bubble butts, etc. Jonesy wants to retire to
his own island with a Polynesian girl, ala Marlon Brando. Jonesy
got laid a lot in the '80s when he had long hair and rode a
motorcycle. Billy mentioned the book /Holographic Universe/ by
Michael Talbot (Link:***Holographic Universe
*
played "Now (& Then)" from his new CD "The Future Embrace" on
acoustic guitar in the studio. "Sounds like America!" sez Jonesy.
"That's not good," sez Billy. "No,no!" Jonesy backtracks, "I mean
Bread." "That's even worse!!" sez Billy. Billy's favorite guitar
players are Eddie Van Halen and Tony Iommi. Today is Mr. Shovel's
42nd birthday!!!
Monday, July 11, 2005
Steve finally confronted his neighbor who plays the loud,
excessive sub-woofer music. He'd previously delivered a letter to
their house (how polite!!), but over the weekend he walked over
the house (through the bushes!!) The neighbor sees him, goes "Oh,
it's you" and said he'd tone down the music. Steve is the
"quietest" neighbor one could have. Near the end of the show,
Steve suddenly developed a case of itchy legs and people called in
to diagnose the cause. (Was it a delayed reaction to bugs in the
bushes or were their mosquitoes in the studio?)
Songs included:
Black Brothers-Give Me Love
UFO-Lights Out
Jam-English Rose
Bad Brains-Banned in DC

Iggy Pop
Iggy Pop called in from Miami. It's changed a lot since he first
visited there, "walking around in his leather outfit talking to
old Jewish cabdrivers." Iggy likes the "diffused light" in FL (in

Jonesy is the loudest natural guitar player he's ever heard. "Give
a bunch of guitar players the same guitar and the same Marshall
stacks, Jonesy will be the loudest."

Radio free ..
Indie is great but unlistinable throughout much of L.A. so it winds up being in Internet station in my world anyway. Still, if you have not acquainted your self with L.A.’s best new DJ Steve Jones you really should. He airs twice on Indie
The Doves
The Doves were the guest today.
Indie stream cut out at 1.40 pm but i should have the last hour from the rebroadcast.
Bloody internet !!!
Steve wanted a laminate if he was going to go to their show because he doesnt like being "banged about".
He wanted to be able to go anywhere; "backstage, drummers stool or roof"

Indie1031.fm: Joe Sib rules! I will miss Henry Rollins more than words can say. He brought so much into my life with his brilliant rants and musical choices. Yeah, they've got that Brit guy during the day whom I never miss. I wish they archived shows like Little Stevie, so you can listen over and over and avoid the crap they play over and over and over 90% of the time.
This site ( jennylens.net etc ) is extraordinary.
Pictures of a much smaller Steve :-)

Tuesday, June 07, 2005
Yesterday was a bad driving day for Jonesy. He had a tire that
looked like it was slashed,then some inconsiderate guy in a Jaguar
parked to close to him in the Whole Foods parking lot and he had
to struggle to get back in his car. L.A. drivers have no courtesy.
"It's hard living in modern society," sez Mr. S., who added
motorists on Sunset Strip yesterday were "driving like asteriods
were coming." Nobody in L.A. uses turn signals, sez Steve. They
should hire people just to give tickets to people who don't use
turn signals." "They already have those," sez Mr.S., "they're
called police officiers." "No, just to give tickets to the people
w/o turn signals. They'd make a fortune."
Monday, June 06, 2005
Jonesy looks like a "swashbuckler" today, complete with 'stache.
Mr. S. has a new cell phone w/ the same service provider as
Jonesy, but his phone still won't work in the studio. Steve sang
some impromptu songs about "bad guys" such as Jack The Ripper and
Gengis Cohen (Kahn)"

Jonesy and the Secret Machines
For you to trip out on? (Laughing) I heard you guys this afternoon on Jonesy’s Jukebox
Brandon: We played “Nowhere Again”. We’ve never done that before, ever. It was a total surprise.
Ben: First of all, it was a surprise that it was Steve Jones who was interviewing us.
"Brandon: Steve handed us a guitar and said, “Here – can you play it?” You can’t really say no, you know? He prefaced it with like, “There’s a lot of bands that come in here that can’t even play their own music and songs.” And it’s like, all right!"

John Waite
Jonesy had a dream last night that he was smoking cigarettes
again. It freaked him out. Mr. Shovel, doing an iffy Freud
impersonation, (***"What are you, Dr. Strangelove?",****** sez
Jonesy******), *** questions the meaning of the dream. He suggests
that Dr. Freud would say the cigarettes are a stand-in for another
similiarly shaped object. "Are you being offensive?" sez Jonesy.
Guest: John Waite
John has just moved to Santa Monica from NY and has a new album
coming out. Jonesy, John and John's guitar player Jimmy do
in-studio versions of "Dock of The Bay", "The Young Ones" and
"Missing You." We learn that after the Professionals tour of
America, their bodyguard threatened to kill Jonesy, so Jonesy
stayed in New York-for a couple years!

It seems Steve has changed his mind about the sex thing. "I
thought you weren't interested in sex," sez Mr. Shovel. "You
slipped. You're not evolved anymore." "I'm still more evolved than
you." sez Steve. Jonesy "is not the animal he used to be" and
girls turn into friends because I don't make a move." "I'm a lame
old sod," he sez.
Popmatters interview
Interview ...
PM: Do you actually like Journey? [Journey gets airtime on Jonesy's Jukebox]
SJ: Yeah, Journey's great. Back then I couldn't like it because it wasn't cool. When you get older, you just appreciate a good song, whether you're wearing flares or bondage pants. I love catchy pop rock. You can't knock a good song. But my first day, if I would have played Journey, I think I would have buried myself. I had to ease into that stuff.

Jonesy has evolved, he says, and is no longer that interested in
sex, he sez,cuz in the past he had lots of meaningless sex and can
now view it as a humorous thing. However, Mr. Shovel is still his
"honey." "I'm circumcised," Jonesy tells him. :Why do people have
sex? Steve asks,"Got to be for that last 4 seconds. Why else would
you do it. I mean, maybe not for birds, but for blokes.."
