Happy Birthday again btw!
Any plans?

yep, a good chunk of those are new dates - I think there are a few other periodical search services I have access to, so I'm going to dig through those. I think I ran through all of the unconfirmed P4P dates twice w/ Lexis-Nexis (already did Jane's). I'd also confirmed a bunch of Navarro and Farrell solo dates in that process, as well as a Banyan and Polar Bear gig. I'm going to do a few more searches w/ that service for some of the projects. I also want to get harder confirmations for some of the newer shows that we don't have tickets or posters for.

But I'll definitely be checking out the other services to see what else I can uncover.

I'm actually at work now... I think the first birthday in 3-4yrs that I've worked :banghead: Mostly because I called in sick 2x last week. Probably cutting out soon. Only real plan so far is dinner w/ Lisa. Maybe a movie.

I ran across this guy Louis Rastelli's website the other day and he has a PFP Lolla show listed that we don't.

Image
Ah, Lollapalooza, the second one. Highlights: Ministry, Porno for Pyros, Pearl Jam, Red Hot Chili Peppers. I think Lush might have played, also. Jesus and Mary Chain definitely competed with Ice Cube for the worst set of the day, though.
http://www.louisrastelli.com/2008/05/29/ticket-stubs/

It's hard for me to add a show to the list based solely on someone's memory and this instance is no different.
I'm going to try and contact him and dig into the matter further.
If it ends up being a new date for the list it won't surprise me.
It was after all still very much Perry's baby at this point and I imagine if he decided he wanted to play he did.

hallo to all of you! Just to let you know that you can find some picture from the first and last Porno For Pyros concert in Italy on my web page at link http://shadowblues.multiply.com/ under the section Photos and live report. The quality is very poor but i think it's good anyway for jane's fans. Porno for Pyros played at Festival dell'unità in Correggio, a sort of national politic festival made by italian communist every year, in that region/district named Emilia Romagna. It's not a musical festival, but sometime they organized music show to increase the public. Correggio it''s a province of Reggio nell'Emilia, one of the big city of this region that counts today 140.000 citizenz. This city it's near to most famous main city named Bologna. Anyway i was there for a great gig and i met entire staff of the band, especcially Stephen and Perry. I gave to they a little slap in their face just to let they know my anger about murdering Jane for a porn. They signed my ticket. Perry has All Star short tight pants and orange hair with deep black around his eyes. I was shocked. Perry was (and i think is) my idle! Porno for Pyros that year was the most expected band, the next week of that year was the turn of Bad Religion.

ps: i grow up with Jane's Addiction. the best band of my generation and without any doubt the better of the last 30 years. I love they so much!!! Hallo
