I wish I could make this up

Lollapalooza 2005 will mark the unveiling of the latest project from Perry Farrell entitled Satellite Party. Backed by No Doubt bassist Tony Kanal, Extreme guitarist Nuno Bettencourt, and percussionist Gabriele Corcos the group will play "excerpts" from the grand story of Satellite Party. The band itself is a conceptual manifestation from Farrell and I couldn't possibly make up something as ludicrous as he did.. read about it in the more.

"It's about a group of artists; fine artists, filmmakers, street performers and musicians," Farrell tells Billboard.com of the concept. "They hang out and put on these crazy parties. One of the crazy parties turns into a full riot and the guy who organizes them gets hurt and sent to the hospital.

"There, he meets this beautiful night nurse," he continues. "While listening to the radio together in the evenings as he's recuperating, he gets a vast visitation of energy through the radio, which is pretty much an invitation to a satellite party. Their souls leave, as do other souls on earth, because that certain station pulls them up to a party with a galaxy of stars."
