In 2024, Jane's Addiction disbanded during a performance when Perry Farrell punched Dave Navarro, marking the end of their reunion tour. Navarro, Eric Avery, and Stephen Perkins are suing Farrell for $10 million, citing assault and breach of contract, claiming his actions led to the tour's cancellation. Farrell countersued, alleging a campaign of bullying and harassment by the others. He has expressed that the situation was devastating for him, as he prioritized the band's legacy. Farrell also accused the other members of violating contracts by canceling the tour without consultation.
"The Band can no longer function as a result of the Defendant's conduct, including his sudden, violent outbursts and demonstrated inability to serve as the Band's frontman and vocalist."
"As a founding member and creative force behind Jane's Addiction, Perry Farrell has always prioritized the band's legacy and its supporters, which is why the events of September 13th, 2024 in Boston and the resulting fallout was so devastating."
"The timing of this baseless lawsuit is no coincidence - it was filed only after they caught wind of legal action coming from our side."
"Without warning or consultation and using Perry as a scapegoat, Dave Navarro and the other band members took it upon themselves to abruptly cancel the remaining tour dates - violating contracts and disregarding all professional obligations."
