The idea of big bands playing small rooms is always a special experience for the fans, but for Jane's Addiction, their special engagements that have them partnering with Citi in September and October to launch their newest offering, The Great Escape Artist, will also take them back to re-play some of their early classic shows in legendary venues.
On Monday, October 3rd and Tuesday, October 4th, the alternative rock pioneers will perform at Hollywood’s historic John Anson Ford Theatre where in April of 1989 they completed a series of sold-out shows for their ground-breaking debut album Nothing’s Shocking (originally released in August 1988).
These dates are a part of a one-of-a-kind series of two-night stands that will also take place in Chicago at the Metro (where they initially launched Nothing’s Shocking with two sold-out shows in 1988) and New York (details TBA).
“In ’89 we created a unique atmosphere at John Anson Ford. Back then it became a community and a party. Stephen Perkins even played drums in the parking lot for everyone as they entered the venue,” says Dave Navarro. “Now we are going back to play this special LA venue and intend on making these shows just as unique.”Citi cardmembers will have access to presale tickets for the Los Angeles shows beginning Tuesday, September 20th at 10 AM pacific time through Citi's Private Pass Program. For complete presale details visit www.citiprivatepass.com. Check back for ticket information on New York. Tickets go on sale for the Los Angeles John Anson Ford shows on Saturday, September 24TH. Jane’s Addiction will also team with Citi to offer Citi cardmembers exclusive VIP packages, custom launch show merchandise and unique opportunities to interact with the band. More information on these experiences can also be found at citiprivatepass.com.
