I was actually recommended to Billy Bob by a mutual friend for a slot as
guitarist in Billy Bob's band. In retrospect, I'm glad it didn't happen.
(I heard his CD...mmmmm-hmmm....). Not great. I think it would have been
one of those decent-paying-but-life-sucking gigs. I'm glad the final
call never came through in this case.
Didn't Keanu Reeves have some crappy band as well? Dog Star? And let's
not forget Juliette (Lewis) and the Licks. (Although they at least had
one killer tune, surprisingly enough.)

Well, it's cool that he was a Famous Monsters fan but, gad, what a
sulky baby! Another movie star playing at being a working musician
(like Russell Crowe, Bruce Willis, etc and of course, most
notoriously, Joaquin Phoenix).
These guys would NEVER be able to front a band and their bands would
NEVER get this kind of pr if it wasn't for their movie careers.
