Coupla Pages of History Part One - Guitar For the Practicing Musician May 1987
When I suggested I may go into my closet and dig out an old Rip Magazine interview with Jon from Keep the Faith and then actually followed through this weekend by going to seek it out....it turned into a slightly larger project than I anticipated. I knew being a bit of a pack rat would eventually come in handy.
These interviews clearly outline the creative and personal growth of the band beyond the music that made so many of us lifelong fans. I hope you'll all enjoy this three part post getting a glimpse back to a part of the band history that just isn't very well documented on the internet. http://i811.photobucket.com/albums/z...87/Page1-1.jpg http://i811.photobucket.com/albums/z...1987/Page2.jpg http://i811.photobucket.com/albums/z...1987/Page3.jpg http://i811.photobucket.com/albums/z...1987/Page4.jpg http://i811.photobucket.com/albums/z...1987/Page5.jpg http://i811.photobucket.com/albums/z...1987/Page6.jpg http://i811.photobucket.com/albums/z...1987/Page7.jpg |
Cool read, thanks!
Loved the part in which they say they love to play "Silent Night" :p |
In 1987: "This is a democracy". In 2009 "This is not a democracy".

He doesn't have the best voice, but his musicianship is impeccable in my opinion. |

Jon decides (and is responsible) as he's got the contract but they all have their say. Or else, they all seem very comfortable with their subjugation, don't they? |

and you're right - he doesn't have the best voice ;) |

Whenever they say something it's either "Bla, bla, same old, same old!" or, when they do say something slightly different and maybe honest, then it's immediately "Dictator Jon ruining it all." from the whiners. It's only natural to become a boy band with boy band fans that hang on their idols' lips during every public second around the world like a junkie on the needle. But I digress, I know you're not that kind of guy. |

I understand that a band can't be a democracy, it doesn't work. But I still don't like the fact that they all agree that Jon calls all the shots. Ice |
