Since this blog is about music I haven't had a logical reason to post a photo of JD here, but thanks to Rolling Stone Mag I was reminded that Johnny first moved to LA to start a band. Of course I could have used the Keith Richard connection.
"Depp moved to Los Angeles from Florida, where he spent most of his childhood, when he was twenty…he ha d a band, and his only dream was to play rock & roll -- as a guitarist, not a frontman. "I never wanted to be the lead singer," he says. "Never wanted that kind of attention." Depp pauses to consider this.
"Weird," he finally adds.
You probably already know this - Keith has agreed to play Jack Sparrow's father in the 3rd Pirates movie. Now that will be fun!

I love Johnny Depp, he is an incredible actor, it seems every role he plays he plays to perfection. One of my personal favorite roles he played was in "Sleepy Hollow."
Don't forget he was also in that great Tom Petty video "Into The Great Wide Open." Why don't folks put that kind of thought into a music video these days?
I've heard from different sources that Keith was supposed to be in the thiurd one, but now he's not. I think it would be a cool cameo for him.
Did you know that Johnny Depp has a CD out. His band "P" did one. I've got a copy (surprise) and it's not that bad. Weird, but not really too bad. Sometimes you can find a copy on Amazon or Ebay. YOu probably also know that he owned the Viper Club (where River Phoneix died) but has recently sold it.
