Original JANE'S ADDICTION Lineup To Play Another Intimate L.A. Show

November 18, 2008

Charlie Amter of the Los Angeles Times reports that the original lineup of JANE'S ADDICTION is set to play another tiny venue in Los Angeles. Following on the heels of last month's near-impossible-to-get-into engagement at downtown's La Cita, the band will perform at Silverlake's El Cid this Thursday evening, November 20.

Details are still being worked out, but guitarist Dave Navarro wrote on his blog over the weekend that "the venue is a bit larger. … Hopefully we can all avoid another fire masrshal [sic] fiasco."

JANE'S ADDICTION's October 23 concert at La Cita Bar in downtown Los Angeles was the original band's first full concert together since 1991.

The group's setlist was as follows

01. Up the Beach
02. Trip Away
03. Whores
04. 1%
05. Ain't No Right
06. Pigs in Zen
07. Ted ... Just Admit It
08. Oceansize
09. Had a Dad
10. Been Caught Stealing

Fan-filmed video footage of the concert can be viewed below.

A review of the show can be found on Buzzbands.la.

JANE'S ADDICTION, including founding bassist Eric Avery, did reunite for a four-song set at the NME Awards USA in Los Angeles last April, where they were presented with the Godlike Genius Award.

In an Augist 2008 interview with Altitude, frontman Perry Farrell said about the NME Awards USA reunion show, "It was both fun and horrible. It's like having a girlfriend that you have always been in love with and you'll always be in love with but you don't quite get along with...every time you get together, you end up throwing food at each other." He added that there was as much likelihood of a full-blown reunion "as there being commercial space flights."

The band has reunited twice before, in 1997 and 2001, but without Avery. RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS bassist Flea, Chris Chaney and Martyn LeNoble all took turns in the lineup.
