Dave Navarro, Eric Avery and Stephen Perkins filed a lawsuit this week against Farrell, citing the onstage altercation between Navarro and Farrell in 2024 that resulted in the cancellation of their reunion tour and the final dissolution of the long-running band. The band members are seeking at least $10 million, claiming that they lost that amount due to the tour’s cancellation and suspension of all band activities.

Longer vid of fight that brought tonight's Jane's Addiction show to an early end.

Problems started in "Mountain Song" when Perry shouted at Dave. Issues got worse in "Three Days" + boiled over in "Ocean Size."
