Perry Farrell Talks Lollapalooza and Jane’s Addiction Reunion
On the eve of this year’s Lollapalooza, Perry Farrell (the frontman from Jane’s Addiction, Porno For Pyros and Satellite Party), sat down with Rolling Stone to discuss the festival and the possibility of a Jane’s Addiction reunion.
Farrell basically told RS that Lollapalooza is getting “bigger and wider”. He’s also amazed that four of the headliners are not signed to a label, this would include Radiohead, NIN and Rage Against The Machine. Farrell also shares some info about a new part of Lollapalooza this year which is a dance tent where folks can “listen to club culture music, but also get out of the sun for a moment — and, uh, get boozed up.”
Farrell also discussed the possibility of a Jane’s Addiction, since the original line up got back together for the NME Awards this past April. Here’s what he said: “I’m not opposed to it like I used to be. I would cringe and spit at the floor if you would have asked me that last year”. “Every time we get together it’s just very volatile… [After the NME Awards], all hell broke loose in my life and I couldn’t sleep because we argue. But still, if I imagine us standing out on a stage in front of who knows how many people, getting down… All that hell and effort and tumult, still sounds worth it to me.”
