Hey everyone, I've been thinking lately about how “Retrovertigo” seems to hold a very special place in Mike Patton’s setlists and collaborative projects, especially in recent years.

• He incorporated it into Mondo Cane setlists back in 2019 (in Italy), and more recently in Mexico with Mariachi Gama 1000.

• He performed it live on tour with The Avett Brothers (AVTT/PTTN).

It remains one of the few California-era tracks he continually chooses to reinterpret lately across vastly different genres and musical formats.Even though Trevor Dunn originally wrote the song, Patton seems to have a deep connection with its melody and structure. It fits seamlessly whether backed by an orchestra, a folk acoustic lineup, or a mariachi ensemble.

What do you all think?

Why do you think he has chosen to revisit this specific song so much lately? Does it hold a particular sentimental or vocal value for Patton compared to other Mr. Bungle material?

Hey everyone, Given that Courtney Love briefly fronted Faith No More back in 1984 before Chuck Mosley and later Mike Patton joined, I've been wondering if Patton and Courtney ever crossed paths or if Patton has ever spoken about her in interviews.

A very interesting video about how each member of Mr. Bungle met and their respective locations.
