A bunch of NOLA songs and the same 2 or 3 songs from the 2002 album. Same setlists now that they were playing in 2009. It's gotten beyond stale

They completely ignore Over The Under and the EPs and they ignore 80% of the 2nd album

Would it kill them to bring out 'Dog Tired' or 'Beautifully Depressed' or 'Never Try'

Last time they played an interesting setlist was the 2008 tour

Somebody greenlight Better Off Dead part 2 or a High Fidelity sequel

Cusack basically says it's because the studio system has changed drastically compared to how it used to be. And he clearly doesn't want to play the game. Doesn't seem to have anything to do with politics or activism like some have speculated

6 Tonic Immobility songs is kind of odd since the album is already 5 years old and got a bad reaction upon release

Howard should just embrace the podcast format and stop pretending the radio show is still a thing

Doing a show from the basement with a staff that is basically useless and interviewing guests on a tv screen is an embarrassing way to go out.

Just get rid of the entire staff, Fred and Gary and Robin included. Do a long form interview podcast once every 2 weeks where his guest comes into his basement studio and it'll be respectable

Dax Shepard has Armchair Expert and Conan has his show which is a big success and now Amy Poehler's show is doing well. Howard can join that fray and actually succeed

Fantano has always been annoying but he was always a Jack fanboy and was praising No Name day and night so it's interesting that he absolutely despises the new record

FAITH NO MORE keyboardist Roddy Bottum was asked in a recent interview with Noisey if original guitarist Jim Martin, who left the band in 1993, was asked to participate in the current reunion which started in 2009. Bottum answered, "Oh, we totally reached out to him. I was of the mind that, of course, we would not do this without Jim. There's no way. I think we all felt pretty strongly about that initially — well, some of us maybe more strongly than others. Jim was a real contentious person in the band, but I loved him… I wanted him to do it, and I actually talked to him about it. I thought it was going that way, but it just didn't work out."

Bottum was also asked if Martin had interest in returning. He replied, "I think he had interest. But I think he also had really pent-up resentments about the way we broke up. I think it was difficult for him to come back into the fold, and he set it up in such a way that… I think, unconsciously, he was gonna cut off his nose to spite his face. Like he was so damaged from resentment that he dug a hole and didn't come out of it. Which is a shame. That's my take."

 

Howard can be the first guest and tell Rosie how much he loves her now
