Guest: McG
Did you hear Steve say he bedded one of Charlie's Angels, but he didn't want to reveal which one? Well, he did mention something once about mooning a particular actress in Vegas, and then during his interview with Chris Kattan he mentioned he slept with the same actress.(Chris didn't believe him.)

9/28

Jonesy on Craig Ferguson Show tonight, CBS. Review- Jonesy looked very dapper in a fancy suit. Brought Craig a can of "spotted dick." Birds like his English accent, but the girls in L.A. are immune to it. Girls in small towns would be more impressed.. Didn't show his belly this time.

Jonesy might auction off the Ziploc baggie he uses to keep the screen for his microphone clean. He's been using the same baggie so long, it getting kinda dirty itself. He also uses the same pot scrubbers and dish towels too long "when you could just go out and buy 10 new ones for $1." "You need a woman." sighs Mr. S. Jonesy acts like he didn't hear that "What?" "Well, see, that's why you need a woman to tell you to go out and buy new pot scrubbers." "I've been getting in touch with my feminine side," Jonesy adds. "Well, that's another subject entirely," sez Mr.S.Guests: MC5.

Paul is in L.A. for ten days. Steve kidded him about how miserable London is & how Paul lives only a few doors down from where he grew up. Steve and Paul have been friends since they were 10. They used to pass each other on the street walking to different schools. (Paul was in the "smart "class, Steve was in the "dunce" class.)There will be a celebrity-studded 50th birthday party for Jonesy this weekend at a secret location.

Guest: Billy Corgan. Billy diagnosed the cause of Jonesy's itchy legs-mites!! "I had mites twice," sez Billy, "happens from sleeping in bad hotels and on strange girls' floors." Jonesy swears he's done neither lately. Lotsa talk about past lives, religion, the Bible, death, flying, Chicago, scientists, holograms, girls with bubble butts, etc. Jonesy wants to retire to his own island with a Polynesian girl, ala Marlon Brando. Jonesy got laid a lot in the '80s when he had long hair and rode a motorcycle. Billy mentioned the book Holographic Universe by Michael Talbot. He played "Now (& Then)" from his new CD "The Future Embrace" on acoustic guitar in the studio. "Sounds like America!" sez Jonesy. "That's not good," sez Billy. "No,no!" Jonesy backtracks, "I mean Bread." "That's even worse!!" sez Billy. Billy's favorite guitar players are Eddie Van Halen and Tony Iommi. Today is Mr. Shovel's 42nd birthday!!!
7/11
Steve finally confronted his neighbor who plays the loud, excessive sub-woofer music. He'd previously delivered a letter to their house (how polite!!), but over the weekend he walked over the house (through the bushes!!) The neighbor sees him, goes "Oh, it's you" and said he'd tone down the music. Steve is the "quietest" neighbor one could have. Near the end of the show, Steve suddenly developed a case of itchy legs and people called in to diagnose the cause. (Was it a delayed reaction to bugs in the bushes or were their mosquitoes in the studio?)

Yesterday was a bad driving day for Jonesy. He had a tire that looked like it was slashed,then some inconsiderate guy in a Jaguar parked to close to him in the Whole Foods parking lot and he had to struggle to get back in his car. L.A. drivers have no courtesy. "It's hard living in modern society," sez Mr. S., who added motorists on Sunset Strip yesterday were "driving like asteriods were coming." Nobody in L.A. uses turn signals, sez Steve. They should hire people just to give tickets to people who don't use turn signals." "They already have those," sez Mr.S., "they're called police officiers." "No, just to give tickets to the people w/o turn signals. They'd make a fortune."
6/6
Jonesy looks like a "swashbuckler" today, complete with 'stache. Mr. S. has a new cell phone w/ the same service provider as Jonesy, but his phone still won't work in the studio. Steve sang some impromptu songs about "bad guys" such as Jack The Ripper and Gengis Cohen (Kahn)"

Jonesy had a dream last night that he was smoking cigarettes again. It freaked him out. Mr. Shovel, doing an iffy Freud impersonation, ("What are you, Dr. Strangelove?", sez Jonesy), questions the meaning of the dream. He suggests that Dr. Freud would say the cigarettes are a stand-in for another similarly shaped object. "Are you being offensive?”,sez Jonesy.

It seems Steve has changed his mind about the sex thing. "I thought you weren't interested in sex," sez Mr. Shovel. "You slipped. You're not evolved anymore." "I'm still more evolved than you." sez Steve. Jonesy "is not the animal he used to be" and girls turn into friends because I don't make a move." "I'm a lame old sod," he sez.
5/24
Jonesy has evolved, he says, and is no longer that interested in sex, he sez,cuz in the past he had lots of meaningless sex and can now view it as a humorous thing. However, Mr. Shovel is still his "honey." "I'm circumcised," Jonesy tells him. :Why do people have sex? Steve asks,"Got to be for that last 4 seconds. Why else would you do it. I mean, maybe not for birds, but for blokes.."

Guest:Malcolm McLaren. Steve and Malcolm see each other for the first time in 10 years. "Where's my money?" sez Steve as his opening shot. Jonesy and Malcolm had a good time during the interview w/ both of 'em laughing a lot, esp. Malcolm with that jovial/creepy laugh of his. Malcolm told a story about how invited John to audition for the Pistols. Vivenne (Westwood) told Malcolm "There's this really handsome bloke named John who hangs out at the shop. You should get him to be the singer." So, Malcolm auditions John (you know the story, John sings "I'm 18" in front of the jukebox at the Roebuck Pub.) and he's in the band. When Malcolm sees Vivenne again, she goes "No!!! That was the wrong John!!" The John she was referring to was John Simon Ritchie (Sid Vicious). "You're going to have trouble with that one!" predicted Vivenne. Malcolm played songs by some of his current "bands." Chinese all-girl band called Wild Strawberries and a "hacker" song (sound provided via old computers) by a guy from Chicago that was pretty good. He is also producing the film version of "Fast Food Nation."
5/5
The show started in a haphazard fashion today, with Jonesy still running down the hallway as Mr. S. manned the mic.Jonesy is not in a relationship because "he doesn't want to get screamed at when he looks at other birds." Per future relationships/marriage "that door ain't closed." Steve also went into his spiel about how priests should get married (or at least have the services of hookers.) Men are always looking at birds other than their girlfriend, but "Birds don't want to be with every bloke." "Someday you'll find the right woman," Mr. Shovel assures Jonesy.

Guest: Tony Wilson. Tony inspired the movie "24 Hour Party People." A producer,promoter and radio personality in England, he booked the Pistols on their infamous Bill Grundy TV show appearance. We learn that he had to cover up Siouxsie's swastika armband with gaffers tape. He was very disappointed in the fact that Jonesy likes Boston! Played a song by some young Brit rap group he's promoting and Jonesy had to stop the song because it had the f word in it! (Sorry RSPCA!!) Jonesy really wants Cliff Richard as a guest on the show. "What did you do in New York?" Tony asked as he interviewed Steve about his post-Pistols life. "Lived with a hooker and did heroin," Jonesy responded. "She was a nice girl." Jonesy hurt his back from "spinning" (the trendy exercise) too much.
5/3

Chelsea won!! Jonesy got back in one piece from playing w/ Camp Freddy in Vegas. Tone Loc & Annabella Lwin joined 'em onstage. He really has to lose weight cuz he didn't get any action. One day in Vegas was enough for him. He lost $600 gambling & rode down a water "Tunnel.". Saw Bon Jovi and said they were "disappointingly dull." Asked Mr. Shovel what it would take to make him his "honey." ("Yes, we're back to that. C'mon, we're all whores," Jonesy said, "Everyone has a price.") Mr. Shovel had a great time at Coachella.

Did you hear Steve say he bedded one of Charlie's Angels, but he didn't want to reveal which one? Well, he did mention something once about mooning a particular actress in Vegas, and then during his interview with Chris Kattan he mentioned he slept with the same actress.(Chris didn't believe him.)

Jonesy might auction off the Ziploc baggie he uses to keep the screen for his microphone clean. He's been using the same baggie so long, it getting kinda dirty itself. He also uses the same pot scrubbers and dish towels too long "when you could just go out and buy 10 new ones for $1." "You need a woman." sighs Mr. S. Jonesy acts like he didn't hear that "What?" "Well, see, that's why you need a woman to tell you to go out and buy new pot scrubbers." "I've been getting in touch with my feminine side," Jonesy adds.

Guest: Billy Corgan. Billy diagnosed the cause of Jonesy's itchy legs-mites!! "I had mites twice," sez Billy, "happens from sleeping in bad hotels and on strange girls' floors." Jonesy swears he's done neither lately. Lotsa talk about past lives, religion, the Bible, death, flying, Chicago, scientists, holograms, girls with bubble butts, etc. Jonesy wants to retire to his own island with a Polynesian girl, ala Marlon Brando. Jonesy got laid a lot in the '80s when he had long hair and rode a motorcycle. Billy mentioned the book Holographic Universe by Michael Talbot. He played "Now (& Then)" from his new CD "The Future Embrace" on acoustic guitar in the studio. "Sounds like America!" sez Jonesy. "That's not good," sez Billy. "No,no!" Jonesy backtracks, "I mean Bread." "That's even worse!!" sez Billy. Billy's favorite guitar players are Eddie Van Halen and Tony Iommi. Today is Mr. Shovel's 42nd birthday!!!
7/11
Steve finally confronted his neighbor who plays the loud, excessive sub-woofer music. He'd previously delivered a letter to their house (how polite!!), but over the weekend he walked over the house (through the bushes!!) The neighbor sees him, goes "Oh, it's you" and said he'd tone down the music. Steve is the "quietest" neighbor one could have. Near the end of the show, Steve suddenly developed a case of itchy legs and people called in to diagnose the cause. (Was it a delayed reaction to bugs in the bushes or were their mosquitoes in the studio?)

Iggy Pop called in from Miami. It's changed a lot since he first visited there, "walking around in his leather outfit talking to old Jewish cabdrivers." Iggy likes the "diffused light" in FL (in contrast to the "penetrating sunlight" in L.A.) He said that Jonesy is the loudest natural guitar player he's ever heard.

Yesterday was a bad driving day for Jonesy. He had a tire that looked like it was slashed,then some inconsiderate guy in a Jaguar parked to close to him in the Whole Foods parking lot and he had to struggle to get back in his car. L.A. drivers have no courtesy. "It's hard living in modern society," sez Mr. S., who added motorists on Sunset Strip yesterday were "driving like asteriods were coming." Nobody in L.A. uses turn signals, sez Steve. They should hire people just to give tickets to people who don't use turn signals." "They already have those," sez Mr.S., "they're called police officiers." "No, just to give tickets to the people w/o turn signals. They'd make a fortune."
6/6
Jonesy looks like a "swashbuckler" today, complete with 'stache. Mr. S. has a new cell phone w/ the same service provider as Jonesy, but his phone still won't work in the studio. Steve sang some impromptu songs about "bad guys" such as Jack The Ripper and Gengis Cohen (Kahn)"

Jonesy had a dream last night that he was smoking cigarettes again. It freaked him out. Mr. Shovel, doing an iffy Freud impersonation, ("What are you, Dr. Strangelove?", sez Jonesy), questions the meaning of the dream. He suggests that Dr. Freud would say the cigarettes are a stand-in for another similarly shaped object. "Are you being offensive?”,sez Jonesy.
Guest: John Waite
John has just moved to Santa Monica from NY and has a new album coming out. Jonesy, John and John's guitar player Jimmy do in-studio versions of "Dock of The Bay", "The Young Ones" and "Missing You."

It seems Steve has changed his mind about the sex thing. "I thought you weren't interested in sex," sez Mr. Shovel. "You slipped. You're not evolved anymore." "I'm still more evolved than you." sez Steve. Jonesy "is not the animal he used to be" and girls turn into friends because I don't make a move." "I'm a lame old sod," he sez.
5/24
Jonesy has evolved, he says, and is no longer that interested in sex, he sez,cuz in the past he had lots of meaningless sex and can now view it as a humorous thing. However, Mr. Shovel is still his "honey." "I'm circumcised," Jonesy tells him. :Why do people have sex? Steve asks,"Got to be for that last 4 seconds. Why else would you do it. I mean, maybe not for birds, but for blokes.."

Guest:Malcolm McLaren. Steve and Malcolm see each other for the first time in 10 years. "Where's my money?" sez Steve as his opening shot. Jonesy and Malcolm had a good time during the interview w/ both of 'em laughing a lot, esp. Malcolm with that jovial/creepy laugh of his. Malcolm told a story about how invited John to audition for the Pistols. Vivenne (Westwood) told Malcolm "There's this really handsome bloke named John who hangs out at the shop. You should get him to be the singer." So, Malcolm auditions John (you know the story, John sings "I'm 18" in front of the jukebox at the Roebuck Pub.) and he's in the band. When Malcolm sees Vivenne again, she goes "No!!! That was the wrong John!!" The John she was referring to was John Simon Ritchie (Sid Vicious). "You're going to have trouble with that one!" predicted Vivenne. Malcolm played songs by some of his current "bands." Chinese all-girl band called Wild Strawberries and a "hacker" song (sound provided via old computers) by a guy from Chicago that was pretty good. He is also producing the film version of "Fast Food Nation."
5/5
The show started in a haphazard fashion today, with Jonesy still running down the hallway as Mr. S. manned the mic.Jonesy is not in a relationship because "he doesn't want to get screamed at when he looks at other birds." Per future relationships/marriage "that door ain't closed." Steve also went into his spiel about how priests should get married (or at least have the services of hookers.) Men are always looking at birds other than their girlfriend, but "Birds don't want to be with every bloke." "Someday you'll find the right woman," Mr. Shovel assures Jonesy.

Guest: Tony Wilson. Tony inspired the movie "24 Hour Party People." A producer,promoter and radio personality in England, he booked the Pistols on their infamous Bill Grundy TV show appearance. We learn that he had to cover up Siouxsie's swastika armband with gaffers tape. He was very disappointed in the fact that Jonesy likes Boston! Played a song by some young Brit rap group he's promoting and Jonesy had to stop the song because it had the f word in it! (Sorry RSPCA!!) Jonesy really wants Cliff Richard as a guest on the show. "What did you do in New York?" Tony asked as he interviewed Steve about his post-Pistols life. "Lived with a hooker and did heroin," Jonesy responded. "She was a nice girl." Jonesy hurt his back from "spinning" (the trendy exercise) too much.
5/3

Chelsea won!! Jonesy got back in one piece from playing w/ Camp Freddy in Vegas. Tone Loc & Annabella Lwin joined 'em onstage. He really has to lose weight cuz he didn't get any action. One day in Vegas was enough for him. He lost $600 gambling & rode down a water "Tunnel.". Saw Bon Jovi and said they were "disappointingly dull." Asked Mr. Shovel what it would take to make him his "honey." ("Yes, we're back to that. C'mon, we're all whores," Jonesy said, "Everyone has a price.") Mr. Shovel had a great time at Coachella. Says the Pistols should headline there next year. Steve will, if the $$$ are right.
