Tommy Lee? Please.... a 2nd rate drummer who played in a very, very shitty pop-metal hairband. Let's be honest - Tommy's rise to fame was soley due to his large member. And Dave Navarro is the epitome of a sell out. At least Dave played in a band that was relevant during their prime. Although maybe that's what makes Dave's current gig as a media whore so pathetic.

and Dave can't jam! - vinyl*junkie 15:25:21 07/07/06 (3)
Just finished reading "Scar Tissue" by Anthony Keidis and i was kind of disappointed to also hear that Dave Navarro can't "jam" either. Albeit he is a great guitarist (when he is in a band), i really think that his inability to just play "free form" is a huge negative. That's pretty much why he didn't last too long in the Chilis.
i'm much more interested in musicians that can "jam" and create something on the spot than those who only play to already written pieces via tapes or musical notes.
But i still like Dave, even though he does seem a little silly being on the show. At least he can host OK.

    to be honest i don't really keep track of names of people who can or cannot jam, but other than Dave Navarro, i'm sure there are a few professional musicians out there who either don't want to jam or just can't jam for whatever their reasons are. i'd like to believe that a majority of musicians "can" jam but there will always be the exceptions. For all i know, Anthony Keidis may have been over exagerating in his book about Dave, but that's what he claims.
    on a non-professional basis i do know a few friends that are great guitarists but they struggle when it comes to a jam.

  And im sure he is even sillier while he is cashing a nice fat check from the show also.
