The band played their two LPs, 1993’s self-titled and 1996’s Good God’s Urge and their two new singles, “Agua” and “Little Me” (which they played for the first time) Their encore included a cover of Jimi Hendrix’s “Hey Gypsy Boy.”Check out some fan footage and the full setlist below.

Perry Farrell shared his excitement for the launch stating, “Now we’re here, and that same heart, that same desire to make music together, has returned. Getting together with these guys has been some of the most fun, the happiest times in my life.”

Last year, the band also released the track “Pete’s Dad” in honor of guitarist Peter DiStefano’s father, who survived cancer against the odds. “Best friends are people of action. When Porno for Pyros created this song, that’s when I knew this band of men were my best friends.”

Porno for Pyros features Farrell, DiStefano, Mike Watt on bass, which marks his first time playing with the band since 2022 and Stephen Perkins on drums.
