My band opened for FNM on The Real Thing tour 1989. Fun show. Mike Bordin, Billy Gould and Roddy are just about the nicest people you could meet. They loved our band, watched our whole set and mentioned us in Kerrang as one of their favorite opening acts. They also told a couple of A&R people about us so we were getting calls from record companies. Just really genuinely good people.

Yep. He grows big ass pumpkins. I guess if it makes him happy, then right on.

That's a lie. He was interviewed and said the whole band knew Roddy was gay for years and no one ever had a problem with it.

He didn't like the direction the band was going in, and left after Angel Dust because he wasn't happy.

Well, at least we have Angel Dust. Top 20 album for me.

"Be Aggressive" on Angeldust was written and recorded to settle a bet by Roddy as to whether Patton could/would write a song about giving a blowjob.

No, that was Anthony Keidis and Flea who talked shit about Roddy.

Mr. Bungle going onstage as the chilli peppers strung out on heroin is a classic musical moment.

So great. RCHP were such dicks, but the music industry loves a fuckin clown show and shameless self promoters.

I met Patton at a Soulfly show in NY. He denied it was him as did the blonde lady that was with him. They kept exchanging glances like they had an inside joke no one knew. My buddy and I chatted them up for a minute and went on our way. It was a cool experience.

Sounds about right, lol. He's a bit of a dick, reportedly, but not like aggro, just a "chip on the shoulder" kinda attitude. Single most talented male vocalist in a generation, no one matches his range.
