[kj] (OT) Brandon Perry (DCD) slams Peter Murphy

[GREG SLAWSON]

PiL--second night in Boston. As in other gigs, really small crowd (under 300?), long set, but the thing that impressed me was the set list.

Lots of old stuff toward the beginning, noisy stuff (the best was Flowers of Romance--the tune bubbled up and exploded), a "hit" or 2 in the middle (Dissapointed/Warrior), and a couple of lesser know things near the end (a friend recognized a song by Leftfield that he sang on). Johnny was pretty pleasant, drinkin from a half gallon liquer bottle and spitting on stage, and commented "everyone seems to be here to stare at Johnny" and "we're being analzyed--we're here to have fun", trying the get the medium-energy crowd more into it. People were imrpressed w/the multi-instrumetal Lu w/ all those guitar type things.

That tour would have been awesome and I wonder what health problems he has? A good friend of mine who toured with him doing lights says he is a heavy smoker.

Brendon Perry was supposed to tour with Peter Murphy this year, and I was very delighted and excited about the news. 
Peter Murphy, then, canceled the live webcast he planned for February, due to health issues, So, I was wondering if also his tour with Brendan Perry would be postponed.

Brendan Perry has just come public with some nice remarks on Peter Murphy, and the collaboration is totally on the rocks:

It sounds they will never cross paths anymore, only in my dreams.
