Prob will never happen but you never know. I was just thinking yesterday how utterly amazing it would be if they reformed. Man I think i'd die.

[I'm Your God Now]

I'd never rule it out, just wouldn't see it for a good few years yet.

Would be fucking awesome tho.

[Pantgirl]

Well it is the 20th Anniversary of "The Real Thing" next year? WOuld be as good a time as any

[I'm Your God Now]

I suppose that's a pretty good point, being their first with Mike and the breakthrough album 'n all that.

I'd love to see it happen, but if they do they better not just do a RATM and play festivals.

It wont happen, the other stuff will be them writting linear notes in the re-issue cd or them bringing out a dvd where they do commentary. Plus I think a Faith no More reunion will be horrible.

[Pantgirl]

Really? I dunno, i think it depends which lineup they go for? They're all still speaking I think as opposed to Mr Bungle where they hate each other.

Y'know, it wouldn't be that much of a shock if the Chuck Mosely-era line-up reformed, but Patton would never do it, bar maybe for cheeky ironic shits and giggles. Actually, the more I think about it, he's such a contrary fuck that he probably would.

[Foxglove]

Patton won't do it. He is involved in too many other projects at the moment and trying to get involved in a few others.

A handful of FNM gigs would be a walk in the park for him so i wouldn't rule it out, I must admit I'm more interested in his current output than seeing FNM again. Bring on the Mondo Cane album i say.

Linear notes are far easier to understand than non linear ones, that's for sure.

[pANDAS Radio]

But non linear ones would be more in keeping with Patton's recent output.

[monkey star]

Im surprised he's not brought out a Braile lyric sheet.

[pANDAS Radio]

Still looking unlikely.

Contrary to rumors that FAITH NO MORE will reform to play the Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival in April, only the group's frontman Mike Patton will perform at the event — in tandem with beatboxer Rahzel, Billboard.com has learned.

The Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival will be held April 17-19 in Indio, California.

Rumors of a possible reunion of the influential '90s alt-metal band FAITH NO MORE have been gaining strength in recent weeks, with Andy Copping, organizer of U.K.'s Download festival, telling Metal Hammer in an interview, "Basically, when an artist is coming over, they want a whole period to come over and play. You look at METALLICA, AC/DC and RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE. There's certain bands who can play any territory and they're a huge act but there are others that are strong in some markets and not in others and that can be difficult when you want to get an artist over and you think that you're offering them really good money but that doesn't stack up because for them to be over here for 4-5 weeks and they're getting a tenth or a twentieth of what I'm paying them, they can't make it work. I think it's a very valid case in point with FAITH NO MORE that they're dipping their toe in the water and nothing is definite.

"FAITH NO MORE haven't managed to get that PR machine together (that RATM had) and they haven't had people talk about what great albums 'The Real Thing' and 'Angel Dust' are and to the death they were a great live band. They haven't got their first show at Coachella like RATM had and TOOL had with their last album, when they came back at Coachella festival in the States and were getting everyone excited about them again and I think FNM haven't done that. All of the band members haven't agreed to do it."
