[Music] Jane’s Addiction new album and tour

[The Clamp]

Long time fan.

Seen them a few times and they never disappoint.

Like the album so far.

Anyone else a fan?

 

[Weststander]

Phew, for a moment I thought you’d revealed a different interest.

 

[The Clamp]

You’d get a shock / disappointment if you got those gigs mixed up

 

[Simster]

I always was back in the day.

Absolutely loved Ritual de lo habitual and Nothing's Shocking back in the early 90s. But tbh, I had no idea they were still going.

I don’t think the have released any new material since 2011.

I saw them live around that time and they were stupendous. Heck of a show!

Saw them on nothing shocking tour back in 1990, brilliant live - I remember Perry Farrell crowd surfing an a red pvc cat suit at the Venue in Edinburgh

The only time I ever saw them was at Lollapalooza in 1993. Along with Dinosaur Junior and Smashing Pumpkins among others.

What a time to be alive.

A landmark tour/festival.

Some of the seminal bands played that.

I wasn’t there

Rage against the machine were another on that tour. Superb.

Good band, but I have never really listened to enough of their stuff.

 

[Hugo Rune]

It all ended in fisticuffs and tears last night.



Can’t see another comeback now.

If that isn’t a staged contretemps for social media distribution then I’m a Chinaman (as we used to say).

Result? The clip and the publicity for the band is now not just all across social media today but even features in the Daily Telegraph, Guardian, and the rest. Superb piece of marketing in the social media age.

No, they’ve always had issues those two.

New lyrics needed to their classic song…..

I’ve been caught fighting, when I was 65,
I enjoy fighting, it's just as simple as that
Oh well, it's just a simple fact
When music’s too loud, and they don’t wanna turn it down

 

[keaton]

Can't see any other big reunion gigs ending in a similar way

We will surely see an addition to this list next summer:

‘Only three more songs till I kick your ass!’ Rock’n’roll’s biggest onstage bust-ups

Jane’s Addiction’s future is in doubt after a mid-song spat last weekend – but from the Kinks to Oasis, such squabbles are extremely common
