Number 4..... Jane's Addiction. Now Jane's Addiction are a very awesome band. I got into Jane's Addiction not too long ago, probably back in 2000. At that time I'd been a big Red Hot Chili Peppers fan (yes the Red Hot Chili Peppers are giong to come up a lot this week) and had always had it in my mind to have a listen to Jane's for a couple of reasons:
1) Dave Navarro who joined the Peppers for 1 album (One Hot Minute) was the guitarist in Jane's Addiction
2) The Peppers spoke highly of Jane's Addiction and respected them as artists... so much so that Flea (from the Peppers) toured with Jane's Relapse tour in 1997.
So I guess by 2000 I finally got around to giving them a proper listen. Appallingly I can't even remember which album I got first! Oh hang on I think it was actually Kettle Whistle. Actually as an aside I believe I may even have gotten into Porno for Pyros before Jane's Addiction which is odd, but I have a feeling that's what happened. You're probably all totally confused, or bored and no longer reading. But Porno for Pyros was a band lead by Perry Farell of Jane's Addiction and I remember absolutely falling head over heels with their song "Tahitian Moon" - I mean I would have married that song and had 10,000 of it's babies.
So what's my point? No really, I've forgotten my point. Oh that's right my point is Porno might have been another reason I got into Jane's. But anyway Jane's Addiction are a brilliant Alternative Rock band from the late 80s and 90s. Their song Jane Says is one of my all time favourites. And they sadly broke up, did a reunion tour in 1997, reformed in 2000 and something (maybe 2003) with a new bassist and I was SO SO SO extremely lucky to see them at the Big Day Out. And then they broke up again. 3 members of the 2000-version of the band: Dave Navarro, Chris Chaney and Steven Perkins have joined with Steve Isaacs to form a new band The Panic Chanel. Album due out this year (fingers crossed!).
And Dave Navarro is really hot and looks like Darren. Except Darren refuses to dress up like Dave in fishnets, a feather boa, and some eyeliner to accentuate those gorgeous lashes of his. Humph.

Yeah I know. But there's also something very masculine about being so comfortable with your masculinity that you'll wear makeup.
But yeah come to think of it you have nice dark features too Nick. How about you let me put a bit of eyeliner on you one day... go on ;-)
Gosh Adam would look gorgeous too come to think of it. The more masculine the face the better and facial hair really helps... ie Dave works because of his nice goatee. Adam's sideburns would do the same.
What kind of thing were you thinking of Nick?
