Jane’s Addiction, one of the near top of the bill bands at this weekend’s Welcome To Rockville Festival, has had to cancel its appearance in the last days before the fest. Guitarist and rock legend Dave Navarro has COVID-19. However, Porno For Pyros, featuring three-quarters of the Jane’s lineup, will step up and perform in their place. They will even play some Jane’s songs! It will be their first gig in over 26 years. The fest relayed this in a message to fans.
While we’re saddened that Jane’s Addiction can no longer join us, we are beyond excited to have Porno For Pyros perform live for the first time in 26 years ON OUR STAGE THIS WEEKEND. ? ?
“The gang and the government are no different. That makes me 1%. 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 Farrrell, 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…” – Perry Farrell
Sending healing vibes to you Dave Navarro ?
