I just didn't like the idea of doing reunions, period. I could only see it as I'd just be going over the same old ground. I'm only years older and fatter and I'll just do an older, fatter version of me.
But the great thing, and the horrible thing about the web is you can just throw stuff up there and it doesn't cost anybody anything.
I have always considered reunions to be a way to make a quick buck, and it sells short my own experience of it the first time around.
That's it. With equal parts regret and relief, the Jane's Addiction experiment is at an end.
I feel that Jane's is really a vibe and a time. It wasn't like we were the Beatles. We didn't have crafty pop songs where it sort of didn't matter who played them because they're just really great songs.
