One of my top three all time favorite bands, but the magic is gone and I don’t really care what sort of train wreck they are now. It’s mostly Perry Farrells vocals that are a shadow of what was once one of the most iconic voices in rock, imho. Just look like a bunch of old farts cashing in now. Good on them but I’ve no interest seeing them live anymore.
One only has to watch any old episode of "South Park" featuring Mr. Mackey to understand the situation..."Drugs are bad,,,m'kay?"
After seeing the Jane's Addiction show in Raleigh, NC, on September 3, 2024, it didn't take a genius to realize an implosion was coming....SOON. Perry absolutely sucked. It would have been 100% better if the 3 other band members had just played an instrumental show. It got worse in New York City on September 10th and 11th -- I mean REALLY BAD. Like a screeching banshee would have been a 100 times improvement over Perry. I have no doubt that the irritated fans in Boston saw the last show Jane's Addiction will ever perform. Might as well call it Perry's Still Addicted. Good riddance.
