Not to turn this into a religious thread.

I just find it hard to believe a "sober" Perry exists.

Not only that. I have many many Jane's bootlegs that has him rambling on and on about how bad this stuff was.

I wonder what made him change his mind.

IMO those who "find" god have a lot to deal with that they themselves cannot singlehandedly tackle. me, i have no need, but i don't have the war stories that may have.

Yeah.. I am sure Perry was on a few "Dead Pools" in his life.

He made Keith Richards look like a wimp.

Glad to see he has calmed some of his inner demons.

This guy is a rock god, or should I say, the Rock God. Watch him just cut loose towards the end. Unreal.

Rock God

David Lee Roth training to become EMT

NEW YORK (AP) -- Rocker David Lee Roth, the former Van Halen frontman, is taking up a new trade.

Instead of screaming "Jump," he'll be yelling "Clear!"

Roth, 50, has been riding for several weeks with a New York ambulance crew in training to become a paramedic, The New York Post reported Tuesday.

"I have been on over 200 individual rides now," said Roth. "Not once has anyone recognized me, which is perfect for me."

The singer, who spent a decade with Van Halen before embarking on a solo career, except a collaboration with the band for two new songs on a greatest hits album, has been riding along with crews in the Bronx, Manhattan and Brooklyn several nights a week.

His training seems to be going well.

Several weeks ago, Roth saved the life of a heart attack victim in the Bronx by using a defibrillator.

He takes his work so seriously that he did not want publicity so that it would not "diminish what I am trying to do here." He has said that he did not want the neighborhoods he was working in named so that he would not draw attention to himself or co-workers.

"You would never know you were dealing with a rock-'n'-roll guy," said Linda Reissman, Roth's EMS consultant and tutor. "His commitment really is touching. He wants to help people."
Consider these posts as my way of introducing you to yourself.

"My sex, and my drugs, and my rock'n'roll are all my brain and body needs."

Guess Perry doesn't live by those words anymore.

Nope. Not the same Perry.

The last Jane's Album was good, but not the same.

But good on him.
