Perry Farrell beats Dave Navarro and ends the show “Jane's Addiction”

Jane's Addiction's Friday night show in Boston was interrupted when singer Perry Farrell shoved and then punched guitarist Dave Navarro. The singer then flew into a rage and had to be restrained by several crew members and escorted off the stage.

Below you can see numerous videos of the confrontation.

According to JamBase’s social media reports, the unspecified problems between Navarro and Farrell began during the ninth song of the evening, “Mountain Song,” and lasted until Ritual of habit epic “Three Days” and boiled over at the end of “Ocean Size”.

As of press time, there was no statement or explanation from the band or any of its members.

It's been just over four months since the original lineup of Jane's Addiction reunited on stage, as Dave Navarro returned to the group in May after spending the last few years on hiatus due to Long COVID. The band is scheduled to perform again on Sunday night in Bridgeport, Connecticut.

This is an evolving story.
