It was not a good Friday the 13th for Jane's Addiction. As they were performing on stage, Perry Ferrell attacked Dave Navarro, and had to be held back by bassist Eric Avery, among others, and escorted off stage.
Concert-goers on the Jane's Addiction subreddit allege that Perry has been drinking a bottle of wine during each concert on tour, had not been hitting the notes, and that they think this could be the end.
They also seem to think Dave Navarro said, "Motherfucker, it's over."
Perry's wife, Etty Lau Ferrell, made an Instagram post to explain the chaos, with each paragraph starting with who/what/when/where/why. The journalistic integrity of it all!
She alleges that:
-People in the front row were claiming the band was too loud
-There was tension among band members
-Eric Avery supposedly didn't understand what was happening and took cheap shots on Perry
-Perry cried and had a breakdown backstage
No word on what this means for their tour, which runs for another month.
