“It all came to a screeching halt and forever destroyed the band’s life”: Dave Navarro and the rest of Jane’s Addiction sue Perry Farrell for $10 million following last September's on-stage altercation

Dave Navarro (L) and Perry Farrell (R) of Jane's Addiction perform at Trinity College Park on June 28, 2024 in Dublin, Ireland.

Members of Jane’s Addiction have sued the band's lead singer, Perry Farrell, following an on-stage altercation in September 2024, which saw Farrell punch guitarist Dave Navarro during a performance of Ocean Size in Boston. As a result, the gig was immediately stopped – and the rest of the tour was canceled shortly after.

Now, Navarro, alongside bassist Eric Avery and drummer Stephen Perkins, are seeking at least $10 million from the singer, with claims the band lost that amount from the tour cancellation and suspension of all related activities.
