Official US Tour Thread

[someguy]

Dan did a 2 hour show of him playing his favorite Jane’s tracks as a send off of sorts to whatever his next endeavor is

Had some cool insight on working with Dave on some of the songs live.

Only parts that stood out to me was they tried to incorporate The Riches and My Time over the years (with Perry playing that specific harmonica) and got as far as sound checking them- sounds like this was during the 2012 tour.

Also he confirmed End To The Lies is an Eric diss track (something we inferred right off the bat) and that the band really wanted the guitars to be straight NIN

You could tell it was bittersweet for him

[bman]

Haven't listened to the new one yet, so Dan added nothing new to the conversation about the current state of things?

It sounds completely over, or at the very least he is moving on to other professional opportunities. It’s pretty heavy to hear him say it - imagine such a huge part of your life crumbling in a single night. It was only two weeks ago but it feels like a lot longer. A catastrophe with a ripple effect.

This whole thing fuckin sucks. The Martyn twitter rant is depressing for so many reasons. First of all, according to that Whores book I think, Martyn stepped out to run an 'errand' while recording Good God's Urge and split on a heroin bender. So he should fuck off with his Perry is high shit bc he was too for years .And Martyn sits around and bitches about right wing politicians all the time. I'm a lefty too but I ain't sitting on Twitter getting all riled up over everything trump fuckin says. Martyn can go fuck off with self righteous bs.

[Pandemonium]

What does Jane's Addiction owe their record company? If they'd planned on an album, are they expected to deliver something?

Woulrd arms be twisted to release what currently exists? Of course, we'd be short changed on any art or embellishments of any kind but it would be a peak behind the curtain as to what they were capable of in '24

I don't know why I'm still interested. True Love's music is fine, but the lyrics are wanting. And I still hear Men at Work, which kind of ruins the experience for me.

That's a good question, one I mentioned a few days back. Usually when a record deal is made, the label fronts money for product and perhaps tour expenses expecting payback via percentages from sales and tour income. Further, such a deal may specify such an album be all new material or some kind of greatest hits package with a just a few new songs. I have no idea if they actually inked a deal with Warner Bros and even got fronted any money or if a deal was still in the negotiating stages. If they did, I would assume they owe the record company an album.

As for an actual record, again I'd expect if they did put something out that was all new material, I'd expect it to be very much like Bauhaus' final album, "Go Away White" which the band spent something like only 10 days to record, had the split with Peter Murphy and basically released an album of unfinished near demo quality tracks.

[someguy]

I would love a go away white scenario… it really sounded like there was more done that they might as well put out. I really think imminent would’ve gotten a fair shake on radio if it was within the context of entire record

[bman]

I was in my car yesterday, and my local indy radio station played Imminent redemption, and the DJ said, ' you know whats great about playing Jane's Addiction on the radio? Perry Farrell can't punch you!'

I remember a part in the book where Perry was high out of his mind and was standing over his bed holding knife or something. Then he was supposed to do relapse and then that feel through. There’s just too much bad stuff that happened between them.

[bman]

Yeah Perry was in a cocaine psychosis or something and Martyn woke up and Perry was standing there with a knife

[bman]

I think that was also the era when Perry thought there was a hit out on him and he would stand perched up on his roof with a gun on lookout or something lol. Truly amazing these guy are still alive.

Which Men at Work song do you hear?
I'm ready to ruin it for myself too

I don’t understand why everyone here goes on about Men At Work when “True Love” is literally “50 Ways To Leave Your Lover”. Been saying it since the second they first played it live…

[Tyler Durden]

As far as Warner and a deal goes…the band selling the double sided single on a white label during the tour seemed super weird to me. It left me a “something’s not right” feeling…just like when Martyn bowed out from the Porno tour and it got postponed so the band could focus on new music or something.

Anyway, I think the most we can expect is the double single to be released on this Black Friday or RSD in April ‘25 with the actual artwork.

There's absolutely nothing short of serial incestuous pedophilia, pedophilia, child abuse, and murder (in most cases) that you can't come back from in this country. As for DN, EA, and Perk, I don't think they'll do anything together. I think they were looking at their lives, their band, and their legacy with deep affection and some protectiveness that's shattered. Had it worked out, they would have had some level of comfort and pride moving ahead both financially and in some level of creative fulfillment.

Plenty of other posters have made much the same point, but I don’t get it.

Three of my favourite musicians have been playing and writing together for the first time in years and by all accounts they seem to think the music they were working on was coming together nicely. Just because the singer then blew the whole thing up I don’t see why they wouldn’t keep on playing music together. It might not be as big a draw commercially without the Jane’s branding and without Perry, but there’s an obvious musical chemistry there, they enjoy playing together, why not carry on and see what they can come up with?

THANK YOU. This was it.

That does sound like True Love lol.

My guess is that the two new singles were *licensed* to Warner Bros (or WMG as is the proper label name). WMG may have had an option on a full length or, as is more likely, another odds-n-sods with two new tracks.

No way WMG goes all in with a big advance and expectations of development for these guys, given their age, demographic, and track record.

Exactly. Perhaps we can expect a sequel to the Kettle Whistle compilation sometime next year? Again, maybe a RSD release.

[Tyler Durden]

Also, given how much attention the band has received as of late…whoever owns the rights to the Triple X debut should be striking while the iron is hot with a reissue.

[bman]

I'm listening to Dan's podcast and FUCK ME why did this happen! Haven't listened to The Riches or Curiosity Kills in years and now I love them again lol. I'm back in the anger stage of grief!

Has anyone been refunded yet?
TM says 14-21 days. Today is day 15 since the tour was cxld.

Can a band declare bankruptcy?
I was wondering that since the JA website is out of commission. Does tour insurance cover this sort of thing?

Haven’t received mine yet.

I have a question for you, Artemis. Do you know why Budweiser Stage got rid of on site parking? WTF?

I think it's because of the Ontario Line LRT construction.
The on site parking closure is supposed to be temporary.

Doesn’t the refund come from Ticketmaster and not the band?
