It looks like in an iconic rock band JANE’S ADDICTION relations are not exactly good now. Singer Perry Farrell assaulted guitarist Dave Navarro right on stage, ending the concert early.

The incident occurred during the final stage of the performance JANE’S ADDICTION on Friday, September 13 in Boston. As the band finished the song „Ocean Size“Farrell, who had clearly been out of his mind throughout the evening, either drunk or drugged, began to aggressively engage the guitarist. Confused, Navarro looked at him and at first asked what was going on. But eventually he stopped playing and pushed Farrell away. The singer managed to punch him before a member of the band crew together with bassist Eric Avery restrained him. The entire team and band then tried to restrain Farrell and led him away from the stage. The rest of the band then had time to say goodbye to the audience.

The Boston show was part of a joint tour JANE’S ADDICTION s LOVE & ROCKETSwith 15 stops still remaining in the itinerary. This is followed by a concert on September 15 in Bridgeport. How will things go with the band’s big comeback, that’s the question…

In a recent interview with Guitar World, Eric Avery admitted that he doesn’t know if they will JANE’S ADDICTION still exist in 2025. “I don’t know if we’re a band that you can think will still be around in a year. But let’s hope our current connection lasts.” he told the magazine.

Frontman FOO FIGHTER Dave Grohl he is not only one of the biggest nice guys in the rock industry, he also paid for a good guy for a long time. At least until now. This week he publicly admitted to cheating on his wife, with the affair currently leading to the birth of an illegitimate daughter.

“I recently became the father of a little daughter who was born out of wedlock. I plan to be a loving and supportive parent to her. I love my wife and my children and I am doing everything to regain their trust and earn their forgiveness.” Grohl confided on Instagram, adding: “We are grateful for your consideration for all the children involved as we work together to resolve the situation.”

The 55-year-old Grohl has been married since 2003 to Jordyn Blum, who in the past made a living as a model and producer for the MTV music station. She was part of several FOO FIGHTERS projects as well as the muse for tracks like “Statues” or “Burn Away”. She and Grohl have three daughters together, but not much else is publicly known about her.

Likewise, not much is known about Grohl’s first wife, photographer Jennifer Youngblood, to whom he was married from 1994-1997. One of the reasons for their divorce was Grohl’s infidelity, while the collapse of the relationship also resulted in a split with Foos’ guitarist Pat Smear, who sided with his friend Youngblood in the dispute…

AEROSMITH they wrote a long and touching statement on social networks. “You all are the reason we made rock’n’roll history. It was an honor for us to have our music become a part of you. In clubs, on tour, at big celebrations and private moments, we have become the soundtrack of your lives.” the band wrote, adding: “Steven’s voice is an instrument like no other. He spent months working tirelessly to get his voice back to where it was before the injury. Although he has the best medical team by his side, it is now unfortunately clear that a full recovery is no longer possible.”

The rockers finally thanked everyone: “A final thank you to all of you, the best fans on planet earth – play loud, now and forever. You made our dreams come true.”

And we thank you for more than 50 years of rock’n’roll and for immortal hits like „Crazy“, “Cryin'”, „Dream On“, „I Don’t Want To Miss A Thing“ and many others!
