JANE S ADDICTION S FULL SET FROM THE DEBUT LOLLAPALOOZA The first touring festival and one that remains a hugely popular annual event, Lollapalooza began in 1991 following Jane s Addiction front man Perry Farrell s ambition of getting more young people to register to vote. Backed by all manner of indie notables, from Nine Inch Nails to Siouxsie and the Banshees, the debut jaunt is still considered to be the finest of all, not least because it was also Jane s final tour - the band didn t play another Lollapalooza until both the band and the festival reconvened in 2003, after a 6 year hiatus. Among the best shows on the 1991 tour was the one played at Washington DC s Lake Fairfax Park, on 16th August. This CD features Jane s Addiction s full set from that day s event, recorded for FM broadcast, and now available here for the first time.
