You don't get any cooler than that.

actually the album and band was called P - have fun searching for that. it's also been out of print for a while.

gibby haynes sang / rambled drunkenly, he's the only surfer on the disc.

flea did some guest bass work, as well as a few other names that escape me at the moment. can't remember who did drums and most of the other bass, think depp played it on some tracks too.

there are basically 3 styles to the disc - jangly pop with a dark twist, really drunk blues vamps, and ultra ball tripping psychedelia. oh yeah, there's also the greatest abba cover ever.

I'm still too new to post URLs here so I can't link to the youtube video, but Billy Bob's take on the situation is on YouTube. Just search for "Billy Bob Thornton defends his CBC Q interview at Massey Hall, April 9"

I think he was being particularly difficult here. Like he was going out of his way to be an ass. Sick of him already....

Here's the video I was talking about:

Is everyone sick of this story already? I am.

Billy Bob is a douche, I'm glad Jian's show isn't one of the those that will be axed by the CBC. Jared Leto, on the other hand, is a celebrity and has an AMAZING band!

And yeah, his music sucks. As with any actor turned musician. Russel Crowe, Juliette Lewis, Bruce Willis.

Especially Bruce Willis.

I really like Juliette and the Licks. Although I think Billy Bob is just making a joke out of country... or music in general.

Best actors turned musicians = The Monkees

ChiliColdBlood · 04-17-2009, 12:42 PM

Obviously the best actor/musician is JACKIE CHAN!

Best actress turned musician is obviously Jenny Lewis.

As for Kevin Costner making a country album. I'll never have a pleasant night of sleep again.
