Janie Lane's one of the most underrated song writers of HIS generation. Mad talent!
So true dude.
Yeah. Both songs
So bad he died
Absolutely.
I agree, a real talent
loved the song,Mr.Rainmaker.
Best song on the album IMO wait; I also love Blind Faith, wait; lol 2 totally different type songs..
@@chrispafrieddreamaster4085 ,nothing wrong with Blind Faith,another great song
Hell yeah
Can`t stand how they make Jani less important. He was an addict but with drugs, booze and problems, he was the one that make Warrant a known band. 95% of the songs they play live were written by him. They should be more respectful. Thanks to him they still have a way of living.
Great interview. Both musicians were open and honest which made for fascinating viewing and is a good contribution to musical history.
"I still had money. I was the only one who wasn't married and or divorced!" Haha, so true.
Remember that kids!
Probably in the closet
Dog Eat Dog was by far their best album. It's one of my favorite albums of all time by any band.
I'm listening to Dog Eat Dog right now! A lot of good songs on that one for sure!
Loved Dog Eat Dog
Hole in my Wall. Bitter Pill
Great great rock songs?
it's a great album!
Quicksand, April 2034. Two more great songs.
I love how he just goes for the cheese... late 80's power ballads (bank that), get in on the tech bubble (ca-ching!), try to get the group back together around 2000 like EVERY other band on the planet
93 may have been dark for you, but you released a damn masterpiece in 92.
Indeed. Very underrated album!
I know it's not the record that the hits came from but Dog Eat Dog was my favorite Warrant album.
Dog Eat Dog was an amazing album. Insanely overlooked and underrated....
Agreed. Dog eat dog is their best work. Amazing album
Definitely their best.
I saw these guy's guy's playing in a smaller club in Columbus Georgia in 1994 , I was stationed at near by fort Benning ...the place was called the roadhouse ...what I remember about that night was not so much the performance (they were real good) but at the end of the night they partied with about 15-20 of us fans in the back room ...and how cool ALL of those cats were ...smiling , laughing , taking pictures , 3 years before they were selling out arenas ...and now playing at the lame roadhouse ...but you would have not known it , they were so gratious , upbeat , and polite .
that was such a humbling time for them. they had just gotten back together in 1994, but the bottom would fall out and steven and joey would be gone. i have to say though, to me, it is the most interesting, and undocumented time for warrant. zero interviews, and nobody really has told the story very deeply.
I was stationed at Ft. Gordon and saw them too!
Great guys!! Saw you at Red Rocks 90. Jani stood on my Front row seat and sang heaven. You both ran in front of the row and KILLED THE LEADS!!! Thank you!! RIP JANI.
Hey I saw that show too!!! Trixter and Firehouse opened. Probably the last 80’s LA rock band to play Red Rocks!
Totally awesome...
@@WhyTheHorseface yeah man, i got handicap seats cause mt friend carol lee was in a wheel chair. Trixter rocked too!! But WARRANT NAILED IT!!!!! Great show rock on man!!!!
I saw that show in a outdoor amphitheatre , perfect sound, great show! Remember they all came out and did the beastie boys at the end? Quintessential 80's. Aaahhh...👍🇺🇸
@@WhyTheHorseface Yeah I caught in Houston on my 26th Birthday on hot steamy no wind but rain at the end . Outdoor with a limited covered are with just big ceiling fans it was miserable but Fire House & Warrant killed Trixter never did anything for me so I didn't pay attention. Why do Sates/ Cities that have such hot miserable summer conditions have outdoor concert arenas . Houston's is The Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion. I have been a lot of times to Concerts their and they all were miserable to some degree . I like to drink beer back then but had a beer in one hand and water in the other since it was so stagnate hot you never stopped sweating so had to hydrate between beers as to not pass out from dehydration . They even have Triage tent's for people that over heat . I'm a Native Texan love this State but they do stupid thigs like this and now that I'm older no way I going to sweat all night I want AC and a decent seat to cool down on preferably inside . The Summit which became The Toyota Center was made for Concerts and I got to see all the big bands of the 80's from there and it was comfortable , loud and cool & comfortable . Any Texans wanna say anything please do just don't say I'm lying LOL !!
Lots of great memories living in the Philippines listening to Warrant and watching their DRFSR video over and over. Glad to see these guys doing well.
I needed this today. It made me feel human again. Thanks.
Good stuff here. I saw them open for Poison and blow them off the stage here in Cleveland, Oh. on 11-29-90 and then Warrant headlined back here in Cleveland on 7-11-91 w/Firehouse & Trixter opening and again they were great. Firehouse & Trixter were really solid too. R.I.P. Jani.
Bob, Well, you got me there, lol.
RIP JANIE LANE.
CMissShelleyMichelle losing him was the very worst thing that happened to this band.
@@patriciaestok9329 Yes Agreed. He was the voice and a great songwriter.
Warrant is still awesome in 2020. They will kick your ass live they are fantastic. The lead singer Robert Mason along with the rest of the band spot on.
The Guys are still the same but Mason is NOT spot on .....WTF?
At least they were able to stay away from Vince Neil. Thank goodness for that.
mason is way too bluesy, and soulful.
the rock (or grunge) from the 90s was insanely depressing compared to the partying of hair metal of the 80s. just a brutal difference.
drug of choice in the 80s was coke - a party drug. drug of choice in 90s was Heroin a strong out drug one step away from suicide
Most od these guys are alive, most of the grungers are dead.
There is no Warrant without Jani. Sorry guys.
Great band. So sad about Lane.
Those guys wouldn't of been anything without jani
So true man, He WAS the band, listen to their shit after Jani left, utter generic hard bar rock
Absolutely true!!
Joey Allen is one of the nicest guys I ever met and dealt with during those days in 80s L.A.
Hell Yeah AMIGO. OutlawX Has Mucho Respect for Warrant. Pittsburgh Syria Mosque Ballroom. The Weekend that The sing Heaven went #1 MTV.🤣🤣 SOME GROUPIE GIRL BIT ME IN MY ARM BECAUSE I HAD FRONT ROW🤣🤣
Yes he is !
The Bitter Pill and Andy Warhol Was Right 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿
DED is a masterpiece
It has everything you need or want in a rock record. Ultraphobic is also not shabby
It shouldn't have mattered but they started wearing flannel and looking grunge. They lost all thier credibility and became laughing stocks.
@@newavatar2947 it's TRUE. Its damn true. They were hardly alone. Slayer did an industrial album. So did danzig. Every hair band either broke up, sabotaged themself, or was buried by a record company. These bands forget they cant " chase the hug " and alienate the fans who made them.
I remember Dickens reunion and their dysfunctional album. Sold nearly a million records. It's not 90s music but certainly a step into a different direction. And 20+ years later the music is still good. Their next album I cant recall the name. Their record company made them make a grunge record. It sold I think 250k and the ppl who bought it hated it. They lost 3/4 of a million fans in a year. Nice work gentlemen.
Pantera and BLM just kept putting out solid albums and keeping fans happy during the 90s while other bands folded and died.
@@newavatar2947 Everyone did something like that. Dangerous Toys "heavy" album, "The Artist Formerly Known..." is the best one of the hairbands to adapt a new sound. I got to meet Warrant during their short hair, wallet chains, grunge-esce, and it did seem off but credibility??... "Ultraphobic" and "Belly II Belly" are great records. Lane still has classic songwriting on those two records.
@@davidhills2283 wow now all of a sudden I'm hearing great things about Warrants later albums. I'll have to check those out
ultraphobic is a masterpiece!
These guys are lucky that their debut album came out in 1988 rather than say 1990 or 1991 otherwise they would have a lot less money than bands like trixter or steelheart
Slaughter, Warrant White Lion, even Judas Priest all put out sizzling early 90's records that we're hardly heard.
Hell, I discovered JP "Painkiller" browsing in a. Music store ( when they still had them) in like 2001. Absolutely shredder record!
I wish you guys all the love and luck in the world. Sometimes, you just gotta move forward.
Great interview. These guys are the real deal.
Jani's not here to defend himself but guaranteed if he lived he'd set the room ablaze and fuck their shit up......
Love these guys!
Love me some Warrant and they are awesome live
You lost your record deal because he wasn't in the band! Jani was your band!
Absolutely true!!
That's not true ! I seen these great dudes back in early 90s at jannis Landing and they were on top of there game and they were to release a new album with no fault from the band but this is when Nirvana hit the the seen and unfortunately the 80s-rock bands it totally put an end to most of these bands and record companys we're dropping rock bands and sadly there album was never released .that is the truth and even the band would tell this to he true .the record business is a cut throat business .but thanks to great loyal fans it come full circle and there's still a market for bands like Warrant and they do there own booking and domestic flights and travel with mini vans when doing short tours etc.. and they still make a great living
@@staceyyoung1477 Please define "great living." I bet none of those remaining Warrant impostors clear over $55,000 annually.
@@stankakol5195 I'm not trying to be right brother but they average 30to50 shows every year in US alone and gigs rage from bike festivals $18,000 to splitting bigger amphitheaters with 2 other bands which draw $100,000 to $200,000 a show , private shows are average $50,000 an up etc.. and they still sale shirts posters, CDs ,every year ,but now theyve learned to condense cost by doing most of the business themselves .for example my brother &wife were organizers for a Nor Cal bike festival Redwood Run and when they arrived I shit you not the whole band arrived in a mini van bass player driving into the property and they left the same way .they travel with there guitars an accessories but use back line amplifiers all ready there etc..they had a simple riders list of needs etc.. and they played 1 hour 35 minutes $22,000 an they kicked ass .
@@staceyyoung1477 oops.. Someone took a jab at the person who has the knowledge! I don't mind that Warrant makes a living whether good or not. They did try to make it work. But also heard that they didn't show up for Jani's funeral, u can't carry bad blood beyond the grave. So if that's true, they won't get a dime of my $. That is, if we ever have large gatherings again before I freaking die! Freaking CDC..
GREAT INTERVIEW...
Iam stating the obvious Jani Lane was the heart & soul of Warrant. Jani's music / Jani's songs Jani's voice. Jani Lane was the heart & soul of Warrant.
The replacment singers that Warrant have had over the years pale in comparrison to Jani's unique original singing voice. No one has since matched Jani's vocal range.
RIP Jani Lane. ❤
Fantastic interview.. Awsume insight 👍🏻
Jani lane fue el alma de esta banda,componía los temas y tenía una voz excelente y muy personal,no creo que hubieran llegado muy lejos sin el.
Please see my video JANI LANE RE-VERSED - please read description and follow promts- then read all comments (there’s not many - dig!)
You just can't picture Joey working as a database manager when you're watching their oldschool live performances.
Honestly I loved Warrant 96. Saw them on that tour and they were really good.
@joereyes9478 for some reason, rick steier didn't play much in the way of solos, and i never understood why. he is a capable guitar player. perhaps they were just trying to fit in with the times.
Warrant were great but they came to the party too late , if they appeared on the scene 5 years earlier they would of been as big as motley crue and a household name
Grunge and gangster rap destroyed America.
Oh piss off.
You got that right. Some grunge was alright. Other than that, you're damn right, fuckin sucks. ☹️
@Gary Nicks Rap I definitely pass. But the bands you mentioned I like. Any other recommendations from the grunge days?
Your right and now country music is changing
Yep But who's problem is it really?
If VH1 and MTV could be doing in the'90's would mean so much better than watching on a damn smart phone...so sorry, I mean '80s'.....
it didnt seem that joey liked steven all that much in this video
Dude I have that same Johnny Cash shirt..Rawk!On
That crooked goatee is gonna end me
I think they are both Talented guitarists no doubt !! But if we are honest no disrespect to any of them but with out Janie's fantastic song writing & Amazing voice Warrant doesn't get as Big as they were , Janie was the Engine that started their rise .
I loved Warrant as a teenager. Now these dudes look like grandfathers. Sad…Getting old sucks…BTW, Where’s Jerry?
93 was a black year for a lot of us
The smart way to deal with music trends is to be in one band that has several kinds of identities - like every other year do like a different kind of music style with a different band name and identity - like Savatage had side project of Trans-Siberian Orchestra and that took off bigger than anything Savatage ever did.
"That's rock n roll" 3:20
Great overall rock band. Janie was an above average singer not the greatest but he made up for it with his phenomenal song writing. Of all the greatest rock singers I don’t think any can match Janies songwriting.
I don't agree with you on that!!! Jani was a great singer and really not average above singer! Did you ever heard his voice range, I mean seriously, who could really sing life life he did and put an fast show on stage as well??? I saw some of those "famous bands" and they weren't half that good as he was. He was a multi instrumentalist as well. So he was completely underrated in many ways
1996..sat 6 feet from Jani Lane at a strip club in Tucson Az...called TDs. Was looking already looking rough man...
"Then it REALLY sounded like Warrant"
Wait, but these two guys couldn't even write/play the solos on their own albums.
And Joshua Wisham's comment below is 100% correct: "Those guys wouldn't of been anything without Jani"
At least he could play all his guitar parts! (Including the incredible intro to "Uncle Tom's Cabin", that was ALL Jani!)
Right. Joey and Erik aren't even on the first 2 Warrant records, because their playing wasn't that good.
The intro is actually played by Jani’s brother, Eric Oswald. (Jani’s real name is John Oswald).
Granted, at least I know on the album, it’s Eric. Jani may have able to play the intro too, I just never have heard him play it.
muchomusiclibre the producer, Beau Hill, says they did play on the albums, just not the solo’s.
Wait a minute, the producer did that banjo riff while Warrant was forced out of the studio during recording to play some tour dates. And the producer stated that Warrant guitar players could play guitar but they lacked that Warren Di Martini ( Ratts solo guitarist) virtuoso skill that was expected from those types of bands back then, so the producer brought in a hired gun for the guitar solos and the the Warrant guys learned every one of those solos for the live shows and future recordings and guitar solos were all done by the Warrant guitarist and the rest was history
@Smith Hart I'm CC Deville bitch.
Lost it 7:40 🤣
Cherish the time while you can and invest wisely... after album 2 or 3 nirvana and Alice in chains was done too.. warrant wasn't the first or last band to go 2 albums and be done...
Exactly,it don't last long..ten years MAX.
The guy with the glasses sounds like a Newscaster.
Anybody that I ever seen that made it was never happy
This video came out almost 30 years ago!! People only liked this song is because of the FEMALE VISUALS!!
Otherwords, WARRANT are nobodies!!!!
Joey and Eric i have always been curious about two things. 1) do you miss Jani's presence and influence in the band and, 2) do you guys or other artists of the metal era ever feel like the record company's sold you out just a little?
Why does that purple lit room look like a hologrammmmmm....?
Funny that they say it's not the same as warrant with all the other musicians. Fans think it's not warrant without Janie fucking lane.
Warrant is nothing without Jani!
“You can check online, kids”. LOL no kids are watching this.
Im watching n that's what counts.
i‘m watching it. i hate all the modern crap, wish i could‘ve experienced the 80s!
Marlon WeBBeR Bars exist to sell drinks. They book good time fun bands that will bring in hot girls who attract guys to buy them a lot of drinks. Today’s closest thing to 80’s rock is probably modern country. If you want to know what the 80’s was like, get into your local country scene.
@@WhyTheHorseface Modern Country is not really country music. It's bad rock and roll. You can't replicate the 80's. It was too AWESOME!
Funny, cause Jani Lane said "I could shoot myself in the fucking head for writing that song".
Yes sorry boys to hear that the record company would sell there mother for a dollar. Those people. Make a come back now with internet in spare time write . Everybodys doin it
I worked with Joey at G&L guitars in the mid 90's
Nice!
Joey was a Hughes & Ketter rep early 2000,s went out to dinner \ beers ! What a down to earth guy ! Great stories & a great night ! Thx Joey ! Grass Valley Ca Soundcheck music 🙋♂️😂
The Tulsa show rocked cherry pie tour. So kick but ...
2 guys who couldn't play well enough to cut solos on their first album.
Their music was mostly pap and as such they didn't have any longevity. If they had moved on from the bubblegum they would have done well
those sandals should be ilegal man !
Jamie St James is a mediocre singer at best. He’s nowhere near Jani and Robert Mason but I guess any port in the storm.
Robert Mason was great when I saw Warrant live two summers ago. Great singer with a lot of energy. I am thankful that the band has him and they continue to tour keeping Jani’s amazing music alive.
WhyTheHorseface Amen!
I didn’t know Robert Mason sang with them. He is a killer vocalist. Better than any other singer technically.
You shut your fucking mouth
Robert Mason is a great singer, especially in Lynch Mob.
Too bad Joey and Erik never played on a Warrant record until Dog Eat Dog.
Weird they didn’t bring that up🤔
Warrant's producer Beau Hill stated during the recording of DRSFR, he pulled their manager and said Joey and Erik's playing wasn't on par with Demartini, Van Halen, etc. He had a meeting with the band and asked to bring in a studio musician named Mike Slamer. He only recorded the solos. Joey and Mike did play on the first album, just not the solos.
Slamer taught both how to play the solos for the tour. Aftwards, with exception of Cherry Pie (C.C. DeVille) and the intro to Uncle Tom's Cabin (Jani's brother) they played all the music on the following two albums.
This is directly from the producer Beau Hill.
@@bryancox7751 Not true at all. Slammer played all the guitars on the record, not just the solos. Thats why DRFSR sounds like 1 guitar played the songs. Because it was. They played a few rhythm guitars and a few solos on Cherry Pie and Slamer once again played the rest of the guitars. On Dog Eat Dog in the credits the Producer explicitly said that only the musicians listed played on the record. The reason he did that was because Beau Hill always brought Slamer in. Slamer said he played all the guitars on DRFSR. I like the band as do you. The records are great. Just enjoy them and don't worry about the fact Joey and Erik never played on the first one and hardly played on the second.
Listen to the interview on CZcams. Either you're right or the guy who produced the album is lying.
Mike only played the solos, that's from his mouth and Beau Hill's.
Thank you for making Cherry Pie. Everytime I heard it, it forced me to get off the couch and turn off the TV... It was such a horrible song, I had to stop it. It kept me from being a total veg couch potato in my youth.
Actually the band especially Jani didn't even want to do the song much less the video , it was pushed on them by the label.Jani wanted to release Uncle Tom's Cabin (which is a totally kick ass tune) as the first single and video.BTW I'm not a huge fan but they had some heavy tunes and I saw them live back in 88 or 89,they rocked.
No grunge did not kick metal in the nuts. the recoord company's paying mtv an the radio to play grunge an thrash is what killed metal. Here groups like warrant were kicking out the most bad ass music ever an while their doing it their record company is busy stabbing them in the back! just shameful!
Wear shoes if anything. That's appalling.
They we’re good. Just not talented enough. To make it big. Glam rock didn’t last.
That's stupid man ,they were as good as any band at the time .big booming sound a great tandem guitar team and a hell of a singer.most important of all great songs
Jessie at the end of the day if their music makes you feel good, great! I always liked the more technical bands. Like Maiden.
The grunge era ended not because of trends but because Cobain killed himself and the other bands broke up. Pearl Jam is still going strong. 80s music was vapid and comparing it to 90s is apples and oranges.
Why do these guys always refer to the alt-rock scene as "I wanna kill myself". That's so weird. He's wearing a Johnny Cash shirt who wrote some pretty damned depressing songs while saying that lol. Why do they never see that what really happened was that the 90s brought in new young people who weren't raised on that stuff and after the Rodney King thing and the police arresting N.W.A. for lyrics, music as art got a little bit serious? People didn't suddenly change their minds about rock and roll. They kept loving it. It's just that they got responsibilities and kids and mortgages and such and a new group of kids started buying CDs. Sure when I was 12 in the 90s, bands like Warrant and Winger looked a little ridiculous to me. But as we got older, we went back and began to appreciate their insane levels of musicianship and even began to copy them through bands like Avenged Sevenfold and Bullet For My Valentine. We respect and love these 80s bands. I think they all just took it the wrong way because the MTV and CD buying demographic changed from their core fans averaging 5-years-to-30 and doing different things with their disposable income and a new group of 12-18 year olds discovering music. If anything I would blame our youth worshipping culture that thinks new music is only for kids and once your not a kid anymore its out with you and in with new. They were victims of marketing. You wanna beat the system? Be David Bowie or Prince or Rush or Nine Inch Nails. You will kill through your career because you aren't tied to a sound or decade. These guys seem like they're really cool. They should experiment and be unafraid to try new things.
What kind of dude uses "JANEY" as their stage name ..? LMFAO! WTF?
Jani
@@robintaylor4249 yea, but the way it's pronounced it sounds like "JANEY"
I guess it was an 80's thing.....
The singer of Disturbed got fat and removed the chin hoops
so you went through all this bullshit just because you wanted to be a rocker and have some fame. wasn't worth it.
God I hated this band, especially Cherry Pie. It was like Glam Rock for nerds. Kinda like when nerds started piercing their ears and getting tattoos, made it less cool or edgy. No denying these guys were huge. They look like they are doing well for themselves though.
How the hell can any red blooded American male dislike a song like cherry pie,it's like saying you don't like girls
cmon .... warrant got a lot farther than they actually should have .... they reminded me of the temptations of bubble gum with their stupid choreography and matching uniforms and the music and vocals were tame , chick rock at the most , and you guys got laid ..... you guys did great with what you had , everybody knows who you are and you made money .... so just stop crying
👎
Grunge Sucks!
Let's face it, they were a pop star band. Nobody really into rock music ever thought they were legit. That's the wall, the band essentially sucked.
