Was given a tape recording of Nothing Shocking in 1990 at age 14 and i was blown away. At that point I was only into 70s and 80s punk rock, the chili peppers, and some guns n roses, but had never heard anything quite like them. Those early shows seem epic.

I was there since '89. First time I heard Nothing's Shocking, they were my favorite band from that day on. Went to Lollapalooza '91. Seen them five times. Gonna get see them again in September in Raleigh.

Seeing a Jane’s show live in those days was like a full-on gathering of tribes. Every show was a mix of the punks, metal heads, skaters, hippies, glam rockers, indie heads, sxe hardcores, druggies, goths, surfers, new wavers, jocks, nerds, and college rock fans. I genuinely feel bad for any fan of rock n roll who never got to see the original lineup perform live.

It was sweet! A video of them at UCSB was on KZread from June 88'. That was a great show with 7 bands including "Mary's Danish" & "Toads the wet Sprocket". Everyone threw shoes on stage the whole Jane's was on. From the Triplet Pit, three pits converging in the center. I don't know where they kept getting more shoes? Perry asked the audience "Why are you throwing your shoes at me? They stink, like your sins. I'm not your Jesus Christ!"

If, by gathering of the tribes, you mean "gathering of the WHITE tribes", then yeah, you are right. Your point being that it was a diverse crowd is incorrect. I saw them twice in those days....white skin as far as the eye could see. Even at Lollapalooza I with Ice-T, Living Color and Fishbone (at some shows). Less than 1% non-white people at those shows. Fun times, no doubt. AMAZING energy. But the crowd was the exact OPPOSITE of diverse.

There was never an "original"line-up,..... only THE LINEUP! No Eric Avery, no JANES! All four members were equal in regards to the whole being greater than the sum of it's parts. Eric A.'s bass lines were the slinky melodic individualism that provided/ gave birth to the cadences that were the foundation of the songs. Bass is BASE,in their compositions. He was a crucial and founding member. To not include his name on their "walk of Fame"stars,was an outrageous, offensive snub and historical wrong that deserves to be made right. 🥁😐

Me too. Was 18 in 98 when I first started listening - seen many amazing bands in tiny tiny clubs- Nirvana - Mudhoney, Melvins, Royal Trux, Dickies, Soundgarden- what a fuckin’ time brother. Men were men and women were women even when they flirted with being the other, and no one needed a goddamned cry closet like these fkg little permabitches

I went to 2 or 3 nights from this stand and got great seats and my tape deck in every time. I also got backstage somehow one night, through a photographer friend. Free beer! These were some of the best shows I've ever seen. The theatre was just the right size to be intimate, but big enough to feed energy back at the band. It's an outdoor theatre and one of the nights I went was a full moon behind the band while they played. There was a great hometown vibe too. Jane's were at their peak here, in my opinion.

Perry singing his heart out... This is pure Jane's Addiction gold. My favorite everything.

I could watch Perkins slay those drums all damn day... especially back then with the big hair and playing with a reckless abandon... yet simultaneously holding it down rock steady. Definitely one of the greatest drummers to come out of the 80's - 90's alternative scene... the guy is just an absolute stud behind the kit.

Half way through the show it got pretty intense down front and my shoes got knocked off me and thrown up on stage. spent the rest of the night in socks and wore them like a badge of honor. First time I saw them was pre album and they opened up for Love and Rockets in Irvine at UCI. Perry came out completely naked and got through a song before they made him put a thong on. I knew they were going to be big by that show. Saw them many times after all through the sweaty LA glory days. Jane's and early Red hot chili peppers were my two favorites at that time. Saw them at Lollapalooza 1 at Irvine down in front and it was insane and I still have the perfect unworn shirt. NOTHING touches those days. Glad I made it out.......

I saw Janes at TT the Bears in Boston MA. In 89? I think. Saw them again at Lalapalooza. Then, at the Lowel memorial auditorium. They were Monsterous live. Late 80s into the early 90's they were one of the best live shows out there. A veritable freight train of sound.

The greatest live band I ever saw...

I’m 47 years old. In 89 I was 14, definitely wasn’t going to shows yet, but by 92-93 I was. Went to tons of shows in LA throughout the years. Somehow I never got into Jane’s Addiction. I was into a lot of different music, rock, metal included, just not Jane’s. Perry freaked me out. Just didn’t get the look or the voice. So I never gave them a chance. My favorite movie was Natural Born Killers. Also the soundtrack. Ted, Just Admit It is where I really gained an appreciation. That and Jane Says. Still, I never dove deep at all. This past November, went to see Smashing Pumpkins at Hollywood Bowl. JA opened. I was excited to finally check them out understanding that my favorite musicians worship Perry Farrell. HOLY SHIT! They blew me AWAY! Stole the show from SP for sure. Perry’s voice is an instrument. The drums, bass, even the dancers, it was a fucking EXPERIENCE. Again, not knowing the history of the band, I saw fans saying they’d never see JA without Dave Navarro, I can appreciate it, but to me, they were awesome with Troy Van Leeuwen. My only complaint was the set was too short. My wife and I both agreed that if ever given the opportunity, we had to see them do a full set, of course not knowing if it would ever happen. Well a couple months later, they announce the Palladium show a few weeks ago. We got tix day 1. Again, MIND BLOWN! This time with Josh Klinghoffer. The 2 replacements are no slouches at all. But now I’ve been going back and checking out the OG lineup. And man, Dave Navarro was a certified monster! I fully get why fans are loyal to him. I’ll be first in line if they do an all original show. Better late than never I suppose. Sorry for the long story, just wanted to let everyone know that when music is great, new fans will always be born. Even old dudes like myself. Rock on.

Saw same show in 89 at Bogart's in Cinncinnatti... For $11.😐😆 Easily one of the best shows of my life and I have been to hundreds. Probably #1. People were dancing on the tables.

They will be a Black Sabbath type late entry to the RRHF. The layman have no clue how influential and important they are. Amazing band. ⚡️⚡️

I went to three of these shows. One night was standing on the chairs, one was in the pit and I can’t remember wear I was for the third show. I got there early and made a mad dash once the gates were opened. Inside shows early when they played Club Scream, Fenders Ballroom and other indoor shows they sounded better, but what solid shows! The energy was so intense. 100% awesome

My brother died on the way to this show. What a trip.

Legit, on point for 1989! LOVE IT! Laura

They weren't messing around. 🤣

Eric is the unsung hero of JA dude is fucking badass

Eric and Steven and the OG lineup. Saw them many a time back in these days. On any given night they might have been the best band in the world. Tribal, erotic, deeming with mystique, outright dangerous when they desired, the only thing like it was a bad Brains show. The energy exchange between the band and the crowd can't be described. It was a real visceral thing, a charge in the air. The only thing close was maybe the Grateful Dead or the Allman's, who also had a potentially incendiary crowd. Black Flag too now that I think on it. Two great Jane's stories for you. When they signed their record deal they were by far the biggest band in LA. They had a major following and staggering influence cuz they not only had the musical chops and stage presence, but had huge well earned street credit as well going back to Perry's days with Psi-Con. They were an important band seriously respected in the indie/alternative crowd so much so that when they finally signed a record deal they got a huge bonus, total musical control of their albums and the option to release a live lp before their debut LP. These were unheard of concessions. So Janes put out Live at the Roxy. Members of most local acts attended, including the RHCP and Janes was on fire, just burnt the place to the ground. After the show they drove home in silence. Parked the car and just sat there. Finally, Flea looked at Kiedis and asked, "Are you thinking what I'm thinking?" Kiedis sighed and replied, " Yeah, why do we even bother to play music?" Story two: In the Jane’s Addiction oral biography Whores, Jeff Ahmet observed Jane’s performance while Green River was warming up for them in LA. “Stone and I were on the side of the stage when Jane’s was playing, totally mesmerized by the interaction between the band and the crowd… It was the first time I had seen an alternative music show where it was like the most reverential hard-rock crowd. That night Jane’s addiction showed us that you could do something totally different and make it work, which basically caused Green River to break up since the other guys didn’t dig it as much as Stone and I did. Our drummer hated them. When we got back to Seattle we just knew we wanted to do something else, something with less limitations, something that had endless possibilities…” Vocalist/guitarist Mark Arm dismissed Jane’s as being too high pitched and hair metal. That sounds like something the guy who would go on to found Mudhoney would say. I mean that with no disrespect. Mudhoney is just a completely different aesthetic. Perhaps without that Jane’s Addiction show Pearl Jam would have never existed.

As the filmmaker of this show and the grandson of legendary country western recording star Lucky White of Lucky White and His Dude Ranch Playboys the man who toured with Bob Wills, Hank Williams, Cliffie Stone, Les Paul and Mary Ford back in the day, I can honestly say that Jane's Addiction is/was the band that would blend the underground music scene with the mainstream successfully knocking hair metal off the radio airwaves while changing the music scene forever. Lucky White did it with his generation in the 1940s and 50s paving the way, blending western swing and weaving country western music into rockabilly and rock n roll changing the music scene forever --LucKy III 🎸🥁🎶

@@alexanderyaroslavich2703 dude it was my favorite show of all time during that era. they headlined. i saw them open for love and rockets after soundgarden at the paramount in 87

I love Jane’s Addiction.

Wow! Seeing this, I can almost still smell the fake fog(smoke machines). I went to 6 of the 7 shows, and had a great time each night, with great openers each night. Many fun stories from that week, so good, so fun, a true positive life experience. In my top 3 venues ever, and that week especially.

I was at this show. In the back on the left side. Great show

Thank you this is amazing, i can't wait for a No Doubt full show from around thie era, i hope you upload one, thanks

I think this is my favorite show (the one in the link above); so wild and full on! In nearly one month I gonna go to a show here in Germany and I know that this energy can´t be recreated - but still it's gonna be the first time I see them with Eric. I can remember then over 30 years ago I sat with a good friend of mine in my room, totally stoned, lights turned off, right between the speakers and we listened to Ritual. A whole wide universe opened up for us. Music was never been the same afterwards! "God" bless Jane´s Addiction for that! I think I listened to Janes every day for a year. Concerts without mobile phones and like a big voodoo ceremony! Love it!

...the audio is very good..thanks..

All I can say is - just thank you!

Very welcome, my arm was sore for two days after filming this.

Saw them. Headlining the 1st Lollapalooza fest in Mn. The line up ? As I can recall it was The Henry Rollins Band/Ice T w full band/ Nine Inch Nails / Living Colour / Siouxsie & the Banshees / & closing the show Jane's Addiction . It was one for the ages. . Janes Addiction closed the festival w all members(of J.A.) playing plastic Buckets in an African Drum Circle trance ..it was simply stupendous ..I believe it was held Summer of 1991!

If I remember correctly... "Butthole Surfers" were also on that first 'Palooza 1991 line-up.

5 days before my high school graduation!

I went to the 7th night of these shows...It was my first time seeing them...Right when they hit the first note of the first song everyone jumped up on their seats!. I almost ate shit since they were folding chairs!!....... Perry was a little fried by the last night but it all still hit hard!. One thing that night showed me was this......LA had a scene, the strip had it's own scene, the eastside had it's scene......but Janes had their own scene!. After that night I realized Janes was kind of it's own microcosm. The vibe there was strange, unsettling, and pretty awesome.....and oooooh the aroma!. If you were there, you know 😏 It's fun to see this 35yrs later!!......oye!, this o'l gen x guy is feelin it!

Saw them 7 times live, including this tour.

All of the L.A. bands were from the great band X. They were the forerunner of the entire 80's post punk scene in L.A. it was a great experience, to have been there. Jane's Addiction was on their way up, but the Chili peppers and Fishbone were the top in those days. Jane's got to the top from hard work, and playing gigs constantly

I saw Jane's in Saratoga Springs, NY first Lalapolooza. To see my favorite band was amazing! Perry, Steve......still 1%

The Grateful Dead have been my favorite band since 1980, and thus I read alot about the band and Jerry. Since I also love Jane's Addiction, I'd be glad if this were true, but this is the first time I've ever heard such a thing. Based on what I know about Garcia's tastes, I think it unlikely. Grace Slick on the other hand....

I saw the reunion tour and thought they were excellent. This particular concert looks like it was beyond fun. The trouble is I really don't like audience recordings nor videos. As a guy who did not see the original concert lineup, it is difficult for me to gauge because I cannot hear the words or music.
