Daniel Robert Epstein: Perry Farrell

DANIEL ROBERT EPSTEIN: Perry Farrell

Since Perry Farrell broke into the music scene in the early 80’s few people have had such an impact on modern music. In fact, his co-creation, Lollapalooza changed the face of American music festivals forever. But it is really the impact of bands like Jane’s Addiction and Porno for Pyros which has cemented Farrell into the world’s musical consciousness. His new collaboration, Satellite Party, is set to expand that world view. Satellite Party unites Farrell with cohorts such as producer/guitarist Nuno...

Excellent interview. I can't help it; I love that man to death. And I agree with his sentiments on Jane's.

When was that interview about Jane's getting back together....because didn't a newly differently formed Jane's addiction try for a comback at one point....don't get me wrong though , I still think the band's great

Great stuff. I'm very excited to hear Satellite Party. I'll be squaking about this all day.

The man is a genius, and I *love* his music... but ...

*gets head down and prepares for a blast of abuse*

And 2 years later, Trent Reznor talks Janes into reforming.

Been a fan of this man (and the band) since 1990. Janes was my High School awakening, the band just had that "thing" that you knew was so much over and above every other band out there. I have seen them many times over the years, and was right in front of the stage, in the pit, at the first Lollapalooza when it was at Waterloo Village in NJ. Being in their presence, that up close, was indescribable. I still get lost in the music whenever I put one of their albums on (yes, I STILL call them albums...) and I absolutely love their new stuff. Dave Navarro is an amazing gutar player, and I think that Steven Perkins is the single-greatest overlooked drummer ever. I could go on and on, but I'd be preaching to the choir.
