Jane’s Addiction  will be sitting out most of the tour dates that are scheduled  for the upcoming  weeks  ahead, which includes the concerts in Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Toronto, Montreal and Quebec.

“I am filled with sadness and frustration to have to announce this, but I have to mend in order to continue the tour and get back on stage. Thank you for understanding.” said Farrell

Since Jane’s Addiction  can no longer perform as the opening act for the time being, Canadian band Our Lady Peace will open for the Smashing Pumpkins while Farrell continues to focus on feeling better.

The Spirits On Fire Tour is Jane’s Addiction’s first tour with original bassist Eric Avery in 12 years but also their first without guitarist Dave Navarro who has been sitting out on this half of the tour due to ongoing issues with long COVID.
