[kj] A Different Sort of "Jane's Addiction" (OT)

[Neil Perry]

Saw Jane's Addiction do their 'final' UK gig at the Marquee - an incredible gig, and
probably in my all-time top ten. Happy to leave it there - would not like to
have that memory pissed on...

I saw Jane's Addiction several times circa RITUAL and they were always amazing. I saw Porno for Pyros and they were dire. I thought the last Jane's record, STRAYS, was deathly dull. But once upon a time -- they were great.

I never got to see VH, but everything up through 1984 is fantastic. If you can't appreciate the bruising genius of the FAIR WARNING album, maybe you should go buy yourself a Blow Monkeys best-of and open a tea salon.
