Billy Bob Thorton on Q

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 / rarabled 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 remeraber 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 love Billy Bob as an actor, Sling Blade is one of my all time favorite movies. But yeah on a personal level he's just creepy and weird.

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

Especially Bruce Willis.
 
I reckon he should write a song about dem french fried pertaters. But srsly did this shit already happen last month with what's his face? The guy that played Johnny Cash.
 
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 defenRAB his CBC Q interview at Massey Hall, April 9"
 
You failed to mention the poster boy for bad actors turn bad musician....

the good thing about this annoying video of a jerk is that I ended up watching the Ting Tings interview and it made me realise the singer is hot, always thought she looked like a horse but it's amazing what the right accent can do to change your mind

Is there any footage or audio of Keanu Reeves' band Dogstar? Always been morbidly curious
 
:yikes: cheers! i had looked before but in vain... have you ever laughed so hard you threw up a little bit in your mouth? Me neither. But that is class. If Keanu did the singing that would just seal the deal for me. Anybody got any albums?

edit: it just occurred to me that these celebrities using their clout to sign record deals us peasants could only dream of... they've got it all wrong. To sustain any kind of a career they all need to band together - Costner, Reeves, Crowe, etc - and either make a supergroup that will bring about the Apocalypse or start a label. Insert disparaging names here: 'Washed Up Twat RecorRAB' etc
 
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!
 
what a useless old sod, I'm glad no-one's buying his crap. He doesn't care if he f*cks up the publicity, he's loaded. Prick.

I like the presenter though, he almost salvages it from Thornton's diva hissy fit
