Not surprisingly, Jane’s Addiction received incredible response to their first set of special “small club” launch shows in Chicago this past weekend. With that great news and with the high anticipation for the band’s upcoming shows in Los Angeles on October 3rd and 4th, Jane’s Addiction has just announced details for their upcoming New York City engagements. Frontman, Perry Farrell, guitarist, Dave Navarro and drummer, Stephen Perkins, along with bassist Chris Chaney, are set to perform on Monday, October 17th and Tuesday, October 18th at Irving Plaza as part of their third and final pair of shows with Citi. The NYC shows will lead up to the release of the trio’s newest album, “The Great Escape Artist”, which will drop on October 18th. So, New Yorkers, give Jane’s Addiction “The Great Escape Artist” celebration they deserve.
Tickets go on sale for the New York Irving Plaza shows on Saturday, October 1st. 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.

With only a few weeks left until the release of “The Great Escape Artist”, we urge you Shockya readers to soak in the glory of the album’s singles “Irresistible Force” and “End To The Lies”, which are both available on iTunes now. We could put bets down that the album’s other tracks will be begging for your attention. So “live and breathe” the two singles for the next few weeks.
