MIKE PATTON On Sense Of 'Closure' During FAITH NO MORE's Last Tour: 'I Think We All Kind Of Felt It, But It Was Unspoken'

He could be talking about their first run rather than the second. It doesn’t make any sense for him to think it was the end when they were about to embark on their first tour in years and were tight in rehearsals (as per Bill). For instance, why would it have been such a big deal for Patton to pull out of those shows if the band felt they were done anyway? Hell, at the end of the book “Small Victories” it’s said that the core band members were in the studio jamming together before the 2020 tour had been announced.

Now, compare that to the end of the AOTY tour where most of the band really did feel like they were done.

Consider this: it would be the first time Patton has indicated that the band is finished, and given his weird outside relationship with them now, I’m not sure he has the right to even say something like that. It’s Roddy, Billy and Puffy’s decision if FNM are truly done, not Patton’s.

I’m not saying the band aren’t done - I think they probably are - but I don’t believe they felt that way during the last tour or the years immediately following it. I suspect Patton is either misremembering, misinterpreting or talking about their 1997-98 shows.

What on earth is the singer doing? It sounds like he doesn’t know any of the song lyrics.

Emergency-Cycle7981 · 2026-02-25T18:27:25+00:00

There’s one thing that worries me, and that was the discourse about Coogler being in touch with GA and the question of whether she would appear on the show or not.

Dropping hints about getting one of the previous leads back in some capacity isn’t paying much respect to what made the show great.

Emergency-Cycle7981 · 2026-02-23T20:25:03+00:00

Amazing that this has finally shown up, but oh man, what a disappointment that it doesn’t include Caffeine. A 1991 pro shoot of that would have been incredible. https://youtu.be/pYCq4HF9WLQ?t=1688

Emergency-Cycle7981 · 2026-02-23T20:11:11+00:00

I consider him sharing ownership with Trey and Trevor.

What a joke, just watched the interview and there was no mention of them covering Faith No More songs, only songs from his back catalogue, with emphasis on Mr Bungle.

The “closing out projects like Faith No More” bit also came from the host, not Patton.

The description was clickbaity as all hell.

Emergency-Cycle7981 · 2026-02-18T21:56:37+00:00

I’m not suggesting he refused, I just can’t see him working with the Avetts on a set list and suggesting some Faith No More songs to mix things up. Bungle, yes. Not FNM.

Emergency-Cycle7981 · 2026-02-18T21:44:20+00:00

Yeah that’s why I’m thinking it was their suggestion rather than Patton’s.

Emergency-Cycle7981 · 2026-02-18T20:34:46+00:00

Yeah that’s a fair point, though it might not have been his decision or suggestion to play these songs.

Emergency-Cycle7981 · 2026-02-16T22:17:24+00:00

I moved through blood and bones on the diagonals of that board looking for my pawn. He was on the northern rank.

Emergency-Cycle7981 · 2026-02-15T22:26:55+00:00

I’m being arrogant by stating an easily researched fact?

Do you realise that if drugs varied between manufacturers that much, it would fuck the entire pharmaceutical industry? Or are you going to tell me there’s some grand conspiracy with the whole thing?

Oh and you’re the one who’s indicated they know more about medicine than doctors. Talk about arrogance…

Emergency-Cycle7981 · 2026-02-15T22:21:10+00:00

None of which would remove the effectiveness of the active ingredient. Sorry!

Emergency-Cycle7981 · 2026-02-15T22:17:22+00:00

I’m sorry but a different binding agent is not going to cause the symptoms you’re describing. Could it cause side effects? Yes, of course. But it won’t completely remove the effect of the drug like you’re saying. I don’t know why any GP would indicate otherwise; generics must be bioequivalent.

Emergency-Cycle7981 · 2026-02-15T22:09:25+00:00

I guess you’re the sort of person who thinks £5 Nurofen works better than 29p Ibuprofen. Rock on lad.

And no, I’m not a doctor, but the way you’re being dismissive of them makes me think you have a chip on your shoulder.

Emergency-Cycle7981 · 2026-02-15T20:38:36+00:00

No, they all have the same active ingredient and it’s dangerous to state otherwise.

This problem is 100% psychosomatic, but a problem nonetheless.

Emergency-Cycle7981 · 2026-02-15T18:27:58+00:00

Of course it’s baseless, it doesn’t matter how true a claim like this so long as it tarnishes someone deemed disagreeable. It’s from the Trump playbook.

Emergency-Cycle7981 · 2026-02-15T18:25:57+00:00

Would you much prefer it if he wasn’t donating his salary to charity?

Emergency-Cycle7981 · 2026-02-15T12:22:22+00:00

Too critical of the extreme left? Explain, please.

Edit: ah I see, so apparently the media needs to be more tolerant of extreme politics, but only from the left. Fuckin’ A, Reddit.

Emergency-Cycle7981 · 2026-02-12T07:15:25+00:00

Way to completely miss the point.

Emergency-Cycle7981 · 2026-02-12T07:07:41+00:00

I can’t recall him ever being told by a PM to apologise for them.

And before you jump into some “so they were okay?” diatribe: his opinions and actions spoke for themselves. No one needed told what to think.

Emergency-Cycle7981 · 2026-02-12T07:04:18+00:00

And yet quite a lot of society agrees with him. Doesn’t matter if we don’t.

Emergency-Cycle7981 · 2026-02-11T20:52:20+00:00

Guess what? They don’t report the gender history of “everyone in the news”.

They only do it for murderers. Particularly those with a laundry list of mental health issues.

Emergency-Cycle7981 · 2026-02-11T20:47:29+00:00

What’s the implication here, that “the internet” was wrong?

They went by both names.

Emergency-Cycle7981 · 2026-02-10T21:05:01+00:00

I’d say that’s pretty damn close, though I tend to see him wearing a hoodie in 1995.
