In a social media post, the rock band said it was halting its reunion tour after the group’s singer, Perry Farrell, hit its guitarist at a Boston show.
The rock band Jane’s Addiction announced on Monday that it would cancel the remainder of its reunion tour in the United States and Canada days after its singer, Perry Farrell, physically confronted its guitarist at a concert in Boston.
A message posted to Instagram said the band had made “the difficult decision to take some time away as a group.”
Jane’s Addiction, which rose to fame in the 1980s and 1990s, was about halfway through its North America tour when the episode took place on Friday.
The tour was one of several reunions convened this year by rock bands that gained cult followings in earlier decades. It was the first tour by the original band members in 14 years, according to Rolling Stone.
The episode took place at the Leader Bank Pavilion in Boston. Video captured by concertgoers and verified by Storyful showed the band’s singer Farrell confronting Dave Navarro, a guitarist, as the two performed.
