Perry is going to be fine guys.

I was pretty concerned when I first heard of this but Etty put my mind at ease.
I posted her message to me on the front page so nobody would be worried.

It's very unfortunate that this happened because it will slow him to an extent but as Etty quoted him saying to me he's going to rock "the fuck out".

For those that aren't fully aware my first google search of the day turned up this:
Jane's Addiction singer hurts leg at Atlanta show

3 hours ago

ATLANTA (AP) — Jane's Addiction lead singer Perry Farrell is recovering from a torn calf muscle he suffered on stage at a concert in Atlanta.

The creator of the Lollapalooza music festival hurt himself during the first song Sunday night at Lakewood Amphitheatre but was able to finish the show.

According to a statement from the band's publicist, he was taken by ambulance to Atlanta Medical Center after the show.

Doctors told him to stay off the leg for several days, but Farrell says he still plans to perform as planned Tuesday night in Austin, Texas.

The influential alternative band, best known for its 1990 album "Ritual de lo Habitual," broke up a year later but reunited with its original lineup last year and is touring with Nine Inch Nails.

I was watching the videos from last night's show and Perry is amazing considering he had a busted wheel.

Checkout the Stop! video I posted in the shows thread.

Unfuckingbelievable! :shock:

You da man Perry!

And from The man himself.
