Jane's Addiction Reunion Marred By Rift Between Perry Farrell And Eric Avery

April 21, 2009

Jane’s Addiction reunion with bassist Eric Avery has been marred by infighting.

Avery, who originally left the group in 1991, is believed to have been clashing with band mate Perry Farrell.

The band are due to go out on tour this summer alongside Nine Inch Nails.

Speaking to Reuters, Farrell said: "I'm not going to tell you it's been all smooches and hugs. But it shouldn't be because that would be a bore.

"I just talked to Eric man-to-man. We're different people, that's okay.

“I'm overjoyed that we're working together. I don't care that we butt heads as long as when we hit the stage we blast on people."

Farrell added that Nine Inch Nails frontman Trent Reznor had been attempting to calm relations between the band members.

"He did his best to be both producer and psychologist,” he added.

“I wish he would've produced a little more, but he was a little gun shy after seeing us explode on each other in the studio.

“He became the referee for a day and after that day I think he was done."

Jane's Addiction and Nine Inch Nails will play joint shows in the UK this summer.
