Jane’s Addiction announced yesterday that they would need to drop out of the Welcome To Rockville fest this weekend due to guitarist Dave Navarro’s “long bout with COVID” and to fill the slot Perry Farrell tapped his other band, Porno For Pyros, for their first full show in 26 years.
“The gang and the government are no different. That makes me 1%,” Farrell wrote in a statement on the festival’s socials. “Rockville, although we are blue that Jane’s cannot be with you at this time due to Dave’s long bout with COVID, I am still coming to Daytona, bringing to you for the first time in 26 years Porno For Pyros Featuring myself, Perry Farrell, Stephen Perkins, Peter DiStefeno and Mike Watt. We’ll play some Jane’s songs for you as well, but for now let’s recall: My boat’s capsized it’s gonna sink to the bottom. I can see the lights on the shore…”
Wonder if we can get them out to Lolla this summer… <3 Lauren
