Quotes

Although I don't remember where this stuff came from, beyond that some of it comes from an issue of TotalGuitar that I was made to read, I swear that it is all correct. It's put up purely for amusement, and is mainly from interviews.

  • "I totally agree with you, except for the part about the thing."
  • [on being asked if he would buy a big house now he has money] "I will be moving into my mansion as soon as i get back to Berkley, it says Fridgidare on the side it goes well with my Porsche that says Safeway on the side!!"
  • [when asked for his best pick-up line] "Will you have sex with me? No? Okay, rape it is!"
  • "AFireInside, to me, means these three other guys who drink all the soy milk backstage before I get a damn drop of it."
  • [said to Adam] "Hmm, maybe instead of jumping off the drum riser you could just step carefully down of it but make a crazy I'm-going-off-really-hard face while you're doing it so people think you're doing some insane stage move."
  • [interview promoting The Art of Drowning] "The whole time we were recording, we were trying to get permission from Winona Ryder to use her "My whole life is a dark room" part from Beetlejuice but we never heard from her so we said fuck it, we'll use our own spooky dark-haired girl and called in Davey."
  • "So things are going just swell, we eat bagels, we play songs, we take our shirts off and wrestle."
  • "Yes, I'm a vegetarian, but not because I love animals, I'm a vegetarian because I hate plants."
  • "Stevie Wonder picks out my clothes for me."
  • [when asked about how he learns new material, possibly just after he joined AFI] "I remember Adam gave me this crappy piece of binder paper with a list of all these songs for me to learn and some had checks by them, some had stars, some were underlined but I already new how to play them so I threw that damn crappy crap-ass piece of dumb binder paper in the damn garbage."
  • [when asked his most embarrassing on-stage moment] Jade: In Boise on the Rancid tour I went to run up the wall and jump off of it but my foot went straight through instead and my leg was buried in the wall up to my knee.

Adam: That was great! Jade: I tried to play a blazing solo to take people's mind off it but I don't think it worked… Adam: Worked for me.

  • "Davey doesn't watch the damn road when he's driving. I'm sure if we crashed he would be fine and I would be imbedded in a tree. If he ever kills me with his driving though, I'm gonna come back as a squirrel and run up his pant leg."
  • Interviewer: I was wondering if you and Davey ever fought over a mirror backstage or something, and if so who won? And who has used the most makeup on one single nite?
 Jade: Actually, yes, that happens all the time. Finally, I was like, "That's it! It's time to settle this make-up contest once and for all, I challenge you to a make-out!" Wrong choice of words. 
  • "Sorry, that was me, not Davey that made that post, I seem to have a habit of using his name to pick up girls.. *cough*..boys..*cough cough*.."
  • "If I asked you to sleep with me, would your answer be the same as the answer to this question?"
  • "Hmm, corn nuts. Can't say I'm a big fan. I'm more of an apple pie kinda guy because it reminds me of sex and death."
  • "Even when I go see one of my favorite bands I start to get bored/tired/over it after an hour and a half. If they said, "Guess what! We'll be playing for 2 hours tonight!!", you'd see a Jade-shaped hole in the front door."
  • "Chrome Grovers are bitchin', I have them on a couple guitars. Almost as good as blue fuzzy Grovers."
  • "I saw Billy Idol about 6 years ago getting out of limo and I yelled "Billy Idol!!" at him, in case maybe he forgot [his own name]. He gave me a thumbs up."
  • "Ninjas ARE TOTALLY SWEET, what with all the guitar solos & flipping out & totally chopping peoples heads off."
  • "Oh yeah, and using different guitars for different feels in a song is definitely cool. Fender guitars lend themselves well to clean tone parts, they have a nice sparkly yet warm tone that'll make you want to pee in the sink."
  • "Tell him to come check me out when I'm shredding some sweet fingertapping solos and then he'll be like, 'Power chords blah blah blah' and I'll hit the whammy bar and it'll sound like a plane crashing at an air show and then he'll try to say some other stuff like, 'Blah blah blah yadda yadda yadda' and that's when I fire up the wah-wah pedal and it'll be like 'Wokka wokka wokka wo-wokka wokka' all up in his freakin' face." [not a clue what that means,but it sounds funny]
  • Interviewer: What's your favourite shade/colour?

Jade: Well, I'm sponsored by black so I'll have to go with that.

  • "We finally finished backing vocals and the came out totally 100% neat. I made plenty of supercool faces while I was singing, like this one where I had my eyes all clenched tight and then I hit this high note and looked up to the sky and slowly raised my fist like Whitney Houston in "I Will Always Love You"
  • [when asked why Davey rarely answers messageboard questions] "He's answerd a bunch of questions, he just gets the most, look at all the Davey questions, it's a daunting task keeping up with it. Either that or he's still trying to go online with his Playstation."
  • "I listen to AFI songs quite a bit when we're recording them because it helps me to come up with new ideas on how to improve them. It would be kind of embarrassing if I was at a stop sign and someone rolled up and saw me rocking out to my own song."
  • "So, what's the speed of dark anyway?"
  • "For finger exercises, I do the removable thumb trick about 50-70 times to limber up."

Jade Puget - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (402 words)
Jade Errol Puget (born November 28, 1973) is the current guitarist for the band AFI.
Jade's influence as a musician contributed to AFI's change over the years, as is evident from the differences between Shut Your Mouth and Open Your Eyes (1997, pre-Jade) and Black Sails in the Sunset (1999, post-Jade).
Jade has several tattoos, including an "18" on his arm (which was originally a "13"), a cat jumping through a 9 (a tattoo he shares with Nick 13 of Tiger Army and Davey) and the word "Committed" arched across his stomach.
NodeWorks - Encyclopedia: Jade Puget (547 words)
Jade Puget Born on November 28,1973-(full name Jade Errol Puget) is the current guitarist for the band AFI.
Jade's physical closeness with lead singer Davey Havok has led many to believe the that two are a couple, and/or that one or both is a homosexual.
Jade is considered by many to be the funniest of the 4 members of AFI, or, as one music magazine put it- "the band's closest thing to a joker".
