Jane’s “Fans’ Addiction” Concert
by Dave Navarro on June 29, 2009
Jane’s “Fans’ Addiction” concert will take place this Friday July 2nd at The Roxy on the Sunset Strip.
The Roxy has always held a special place in our hearts because it’s where we recorded our first record. And as we said we want the majority of tickets to this show going to our fans so there will be a few ways to get them from us. Sign up for tickets on janesaddiction.com starting tomorrow. Also look for tweets from Perry or myself this week to win tickets. The remainder of seats will be for those who choose to wait in line at the Roxy on Friday. Doors will open at 8pm.
This show is part of the Sunset Strip Summer Concert Series presented by Bing and is being filmed for use at a later time so come dressed to have fun.
Mike and I have been hard at work updating the tour section. Cleaning up venue names, adding artwork, and most importantly adding new shows and correcting info for existing shows. We’re in dire need for ticket and poster (etc.) scans for the 2009 shows. So if you have something Jane’s related that you can scan for the site, we’d love to have it. You can email scans to: submissions < at > janesaddiction < dot > org – thanks!
Discography updates coming soon…
Jane’s Addiction has added another date to their spring 2009 tour. They will be playing the nTelos Wireless Pavillion in Portsmouth, VA on June 13. This is not a NIN/JA date, as NIN will be playing the Bonnaroo Festival in Tennessee that same day. Tickets go on sale next Friday, April 23rd at 10am.
The NINJA 2009 tour is heading to England. Jane’s Addiction and Nine Inch Nails will play the M.E.N. Arena in Manchester, England on July 14th and the O2 Arena in London, England on July 15th. Presale for both shows is this Tuesday, April 14th at 5pm local time at NIN.com. Jane’s website has yet to post any presale info for these shows. Regular tickets go on sale this Friday, April 17th.
If you’re signed up at janesaddiction.com then you should have received an email this morning informing you about this show. It will be Jane’s Addiction without NIN in Columbus, OH.
Friday, May 29th, 2009 – Columbus, OH [Lifestyle Communities Pavilion]
Pre-sale Starts: Tuesday, April 14st @ 1:00 PM (local venue time)
Public On-sale Starts: Thursday, April 16th @ 6:00 PM (local venue time)
Tickets will be on sale to the general public on Friday, April 17th at 10:00 AM (local venue time).
Early bird tickets for the 2009 Lollapalooza festival are now on sale over at Lollapalooza.com. The lineup has yet to be annoucned, so these early bird tickets are priced lower than regular tickets that will go on sale later this spring. However, Perry did recently confirm that Jane’s Addiction will indeed be a part of this year’s festival. So a weekend pass guarantees you some Jane’s Addiction in Chicago this August.
Just a reminder, presales for most of the NIN/JA shows start today and tomorrow. Presales run up to the day prior to the regular on-sale dates, most of which are this Friday and Saturday. Remember, you have to be registered at either NIN.com or JA.com to have access to the presale. While being registered here at JA.org allows you to comment, it won’t help you get presale tickets. The full list of presale and on sale dates and times is here.
A lot of people have been surprised, even disappointed in the high prices tickets for the NIN/JA tour have been going for. Eric Avery made a post on his blog over the weekend addressing it, referencing a post Trent Reznor made on the official NIN message board.
we in janes have made several phone calls, both individually and collectively, trying to find out why nin/ja ticket prices have wound up so much higher than the agreed upon price. it has been confusing and frustrating trying to get a straight, consistent and clear answer. a few weeks ago, trent told me about a ticket reselling phenomena that i hadnt understood before. i didnt understand at the time just how insidious this system is until ive had to watch it play out in real time. he wrote a really good concise and understandable explanation here. its a good read. have coffee first.
