That song is so bad. It tries to create tension and fails miserably. And although Perry does seem to ‘give it all’, I’m tired of seeing Etty’s armpit. I wish she’d do something else, like not being onstage.
I also saw two minutes of his interview. I stopped watchig when he said ‘look, we’re on tour...’
You’re not on fucking tour, you’re playing like 4 shows in a month. In a restaurant.
Perry has always been in outer space, yes. But there's a big difference between his demeanor then and now. He used to pull it off. Now he just comes across like a goofy old man.
The performance was awful. His voice gives out pretty early. And the rest of the band look absolutely ridiculous.

I'm surprised he actually was interviewed. Half about him/half about lollapalooza. Pretty much confirms to me that everyone in Jane's Addiction no longer belongs in Jane's Addiction (if that wasn't somehow already obvious). Each of its members have moved on, and apathetic festival audiences have as well. Didn't have to be this way though!

I liked him better when he was 25 and calling himself Marilyn Manson.

Why the fuck did they spend the whole performance saluting and marching in place?
Does Etty know the difference between politicians and the military?

This.

Ps. Did that back up singer with the blond hair have a giant dong hanging down during the performance?

Having a poor opinion of Perry's performance does not make me jaded, a hater, etc etc
It makes me honest. It means my taste is discerning.
I have obvious ties here. This is where we discuss Jane's stuff and have for nearly 20 years. I'm not going to not share my opinion of how bad it's gotten.

It's weird watching plastic Perry listen to that old song. It was also nice reminder how excellent of a song that was.
Didn't it come to light at one point that xiola was in her early to mid teens? I wonder if he's ever been called out on that. Unless I'm remembering it incorrectly.
