Oh Perry, we wanted to know what happened to you after you were pushed out of Jane's Addiction.

That was so unfair.

You're a smart guy, what with Lollapalooza under your belt. You're creativity has long been under acknowledged, and now, you have Satellite Party.

Which isn't a band at all.

Perry described to MTV that it's actually a musical. Go figure, occasionally musicians like to create immense musical bodies of work that illustrate a story line. See The Who's Tommy, see Pink Floyd's The Wall, David Bowie's Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust, hell, even Green Day's American Idiot was a concept album that followed the story of "Jesus of Suburbia".

No, concept albums are not new, however, Farrell's concept is still different. Besides the album was originally going to be released back in the end of 2006, it's only now a project that's getting a marginal iota of additional press.

The Black Eyed Peas' Fergie will appear on three of the self-titled disc's 13 tracks, Porno for Pyros guitarist Peter DiStefano, Joy Division/ New Order bassist Peter Hook and Red Hot Chili Peppers John Frusciante and Flea. Jack Irons, the Peppers' original drummer (and Pearl Jam's subsequent one) is also on the scene.

Yep it's a star studded hootenany. Farrell is bringing it all together. Performance will debut at the upcoming 2 day Lollapalooza event in Chicago this summer.

My favorite thing is that Farrell acts as if his concept is so ground breaking since he will incorporate sets and make it purely theatrical.

Music nerds like myself are intrigued, but, realise, it's far from innovative.

Keeping Fergie from wetting herself on stage, no THAT's innovative.
