The members of the rock band Jane’s Addiction have resolved their aggressions but the end of the feud does not mean good news for the fans.
The rockers had just begun a reunion tour in 2024, when there was an aggressive discussion between Perry Farrell and Dave Navarro that ended up having the tour cancelled.
The band members have issued a statement addressing the matter…”We would like to clarify the events surrounding the cancellation of the tour after the show in Boston in September 2024.”
The statement continues,”after that show, without notice to Perry, we unilaterally determined it would be best to not continue the tour and made inaccurate statements about Perry’s mental health which we regret. Today we are here to announce that we have come together one last time to resolve our differences, so that the legacy of Jane’s Addiction will remain the work the four of us created together.”
They added, “we now look forward to the future as we embark on our separate musical and creative endeavors. Jane’s Addiction will forever live in our hearts. We are proud of the music we created together. You, the fans, are our lifeblood, and we will always appreciate you.”
Along with the band statement, some of the band members made statements of their own…
Perry Farrell said, “to everyone in Boston, and around the world. I’d like to address what happened on stage last year. I’ve reflected on it and know I didn’t handle myself the way I should have. I apologize to our patrons and my bandmates for losing my temper and for disrupting the show.”
He continued, “Jane’s Addiction has been at the center of my life for decades. The band, the songs, the patrons and the impact that we’ve had on music and culture mean more to me than any words I could ever possibly write down.”
Farrell concluded, “my aim has always been to give our audience the best possible show, something real, honest and positive. In Boston, we fell short of that, and I’m truly sorry to everyone who was impacted. From the bottom of my heart, I want to thank each and every one of you for your continued love and support.”
The band has in a word “made up” but have chosen to go their separate ways.
