Wow, I can't believe how bent some of you are on calling Perry Farrell and/or Jane's Addiction gay. First of all, I don't see how it MATTERS in the first place what a band member's sexuality is. It doesn't affect the music, or the things Jane's Addiction did for music itself. Perry Farrell is in fact NOT gay, he's married, and has two kids. He's very flamboyant and is comfortable with his sexuality. And he actually takes pleasure in presenting an androgynous image, and freaking people out. He's always been that way. So you can call him gay as much as you want, but you're just giving him the reaction he's going for realistically. And frankly, for all the people who said Jane's sucked, remember that your beloved NIN are actually fans of this band, and for a good reason. Some people in music history hail Jane's Addiction as the godfathers of alternative music. They helped pave the way for a lot of bands in the 1980's. It's cool if you don't enjoy their music but to bash it simply because YOU DON'T GET IT is just plain ignorant in itself, especially if it's mainly because you think Perry Farrell is "gay". Let's see you get up there, and try and hold a candle to that performance. Seriously.
