Rock and Roll Tuesday. Jane's Addiction.

Hahaha, well, embedding of the video clip I wanted to use for this post was disabled so instead for your viewing pleasure I give to you this magical, mystical albeit admittedly shoddy shot of Jane's Addiction and lots of backs of people's heads at the original Lollapalooza.  I was 14!

Man do I love them.  They still make me feel all tingly high inside with that illustrious poetry light: Perry's tinny voice and mythological story telling, his one-eyed rebel aesthetic (watch this clip of the gorgeous, stunning song Classic Girl) and their gnarly fucking still hear those metal remnants in it crumbly guitar.

Jane's Addiction, Charles Town, WV, 1991

Go here, too, and listen to Ocean Song.  I'm still a little flushed from it....

    If you're gonna be addicted to anything, it should be to... Jane and the Ocean. Zapa said, "the ocean is the ultimate solution". Science proves, that water permeates through everything on this planet. Solomon said that, "many waters cannot quench love". Water is made of matter but love is not. Sometimes, matter doesn't matter. Great songs always do!
    Glad your flush.
