Janes Addiction in concert

NIN.com have released more dates for the unmissable 2009 NIN|JA world tour. 

That’s right, Nine Inch Nails and Jane’s Addiction, having already released many US dates,  will be bringing the show to the rest of the world in the summer.

It’s not clear from their website whether Jane’s Addiction will be joining them on all of the dates listed below, but the two UK shows do appear to be confirmed NIN|JA dates.

From NIN.com:

Representatives of the RMF will definitely be at one of the shows.  We recommend you don’t miss this very last opportunity to see NIN before they dissolve, and this brief(?) reunion of Jane’s Addiction is their first tour in years.  Catch this show, or spend the rest of your life explaining why you weren’t there.  Remember GNR / FNM / Soundgarden in the early 90′s?  Do NOT miss this tour.

Following funky acid-rockers Jane’s Addiction‘s successful recent comeback gigs, a short set at the first-ever NME Awards USA on April 23, 2008 after their acceptance speech for the “Godlike Genius Award”, their first full set in 17 years in Los Angeles on October 23, 2008 at La Cita Bar, and two other “secret” gigs, it has been confirmed that they will be touring this year with Nine Inch Nails.

Reformed again: Jane's Addiction

When the full reunited line-up of Perry Farrell, Dave Navarro, Eric Avery, and Stephen Perkins played the NME Awards, it was the first performance they’d played with bassist Eric Avery since 1991.   The band played “Stop!”, “Mountain Song”, “Ocean Size” and “Jane Says” and the event was broadcast via MySpace.

The set list for their La Cita Bar gig was “Up the Beach”, “Trip Away”, “Whores”, “1%”, “Ain’t No Right”, “Pigs in Zen”, “Ted… Just Admit It”, “Ocean Size”, “Had a Dad”, “Been Caught Stealing”.

The confirmed dates so far are:

West Palm Beach, FL Cruzan Amphitheatre ( May 8 )

*Nine Inch Nails solo gig

Trent Reznor, Nine Inch Nails

The tour is said to be ending in Las Vegas in December, but worldwide dates are yet to be announced.

Trent Reznor recently announced that this was to be Nine Inch Nails’ last tour in their current format.

 RMF opinion:  Hopefully this tour will be Europe-bound.  We’d like to see more from the superb “Strays” album on the set-list too!  This may be your last chance to see Nine Inch Nails in all their energetic live glory, following Trent Reznor’s recent statement that NIN would never play live again in their current format.   Sounds like Trent Reznor plans to take NIN in a new direction, so watch this space.  In another recent announcement, Reznor admitted that he has been in the studio recently, recording Jane’s Addiction’s first new album since Strays in 2003.  We can’t wait to hear it!

Verdict: Unmissable!
