Greta Van Fleet served as the musical guests on the September 21 episode of “Jimmy Kimmel Live!.” You can watch the band perform “Saw You Stand” on the show below. That track will appear on the group’s new album, “Palace For The People,” which is set to be released on October 9.
Ghost fans have been raising funds to assist with restoration efforts at the Mountain View Mausoleum in Altadena, California. The band used that site as the filming location for their “Ministry” headquarters. It also served as the setting for various photos and videos, including a 2022 performance of “Call Me Little Sunshine” for “Jimmy Kimmel Live!.”
Mystic Ministry, a fan-led group, have already raised $3,902.47 for recovery and preservation efforts. They will also be hosting three 20-person tours of the mausoleum on October 3. A portion of the proceeds will go towards fixing damage related to the Eaton fires. Fans can donate and purchase tickets HERE.
Amati Avaul, founder of Mystic Ministry, commented:
“Ghost has always been about more than the music. There’s this incredible world the band has created, and the fans don’t just watch it — we participate in it, build community around it and find ways to make it meaningful in our own lives. Mountain View became part of that world for us. Once you view the Mausoleum, read about its history, you realize it’s so much more than a filming location. It’s a rare and beautiful place, filled with history, artistry and memory, and places like that simply can’t be replaced. Mystic Ministry wanted to take the passion and creativity that exist in this fandom and turn them into something positive and tangible. If loving this band brought us to Mountain View, then helping preserve Mountain View — and showing some love to the community around it — feels like a pretty wonderful way to give something back.”

Bassist Darryl Jenifer commented:
“We wanted to make sure a lot of our energy was put into executing our riffs and ideas. There was no overall vision of what we meant as a band or what it would come to mean to the culture. All we knew was we loved a wild version of rock and roll that they called punk.”
A video for “Pay To Cum” featuring footage Barry Masterson captured during an October 24, 1979 set at CBGB can be found below. Jenifer added the following about that track:
“The riff for ‘Pay To Cum’ started as a stream of punk rock vibes fueled by the Ramones, the Damned, and Return to Forever. It was a gift that served as a springboard into our sound — sheer, straight-ahead three-chord mayhem with a few breaks and a stop. The title actually meant nothing to us; it was just a fun-loving play on words.”

Elder bassist Jack Donovan has been hospitalized with pneumonia. As such, he was forced to miss the band’s September 22 show in Portland, OR.
The group commented:
“IMPORTANT UPDATE REGARDING TONIGHT’S PORTLAND SHOW
Our bassist Jack has fallen seriously ill and has been hospitalized with pneumonia. After struggling the past week with illnesses and continuing to play, his condition took a turn for the much worse suddenly after arrival at Roseland Theater.
Doctors have advised him that had he not sought medical attention his condition could have become life threatening. He is currently hospitalized overnight.
We are so grateful that his condition is stable and he is getting treatment. With this extremely last minute development – literal minutes before doors – and with his blessing, we have decided the show must go on.
Tonight’s concert will doubtless be different but we hope for your understanding.”
