In May, Jane’s Addiction will embark on their first UK and European headline tour in eight years. The dates, which also include a performance at Bearded Theory festival, will see Perry Farrell, Dave Navarro, Stephen Perkins and Eric Avery stop off in London, Glasgow and Manchester before heading to the continent. If you’re planning to attend and you want to make Farrell happy, then what you should really do is shout out (not when Perry is talking, that would be rude) for the band to play either their epic, ten-minute 1990 single Three Days or the similarly vast Then She Did…, both taken from the LA rock quartet’s classic second album Ritual De Lo Habitual. That’s because, as Farrell told this writer back in 2021, the Jane’s Addiction singer thinks they are two of his most underrated tunes.
Asked to elaborate on why he chose those two, Farrell came up with a solid defence. “Well, one is about a beautiful ménage à trois,” he explained, referring to Three Days, “being up for three days, getting to make love to two women that you really are in love with. And man, you can't beat that can you?”
