Perry Farrell’s Wife Offers Dramatic Account of Why He Assaulted Dave Navarro During Jane’s Addiction Show: ‘Perry Was a Crazed Beast for the Next Half an Hour’
Etty Lou Farrell, Perry Farrell's wife, broke down the Jane's Addiction fight, praising Dave Navarro but excoriating Eric Avery for 'cheap shots.'
She wrote on her Instagram account Saturday morning that her husband was upset about the band’s sound levels drowning out his vocals, and that led to his assault on seemingly unsuspecting guitarist Dave Navarro. On the other hand, she lays into bassist Eric Avery for “cheap shots” in allegedly putting the singer into a headlock and punching him three times — something that wasn’t clear from widely disseminated fan video of the on-stage altercation. At an earlier tour stop this month in Florida, a reviewer for Creative Loafing noted that Farrell was in “a quizzical state” and prone to “incoherent speech,” which led to “odd, uncomfortable moments” and apparent tension between him and Navarro.
