I was there. Memorable evening(s).

[@michellehillyer4511]

Me too. I went every night they played. Best memories every.

[@ludlow555]

I was at the show with Flaming Lips opening. Would have killed to see Nymphs and Caterwaul on this run.

[@Peacekpr4]

$10 shows 5 in 7 nights. Loved them all

[@BubbaZen10]

Man, they REALLY got good and took a big step up playing live from '86 to '89 0r '90.

[@keysersoze3977]

One of the best venues to see a band... and no better band to see.. wish we had a high quality dvd of these shows/featurette.. they played here again i think in 2011 but it just was not the same.. it was cool but not like these shows.

GREAT FOOTAGE. BACK WHEN THE BAND WAS AT ITS GREATEST AND PERRY DIDNT MAKE ANY FUCKING SENSE.

[@tnicolle2269]

Does anyone else remember Perry throwing tortillas like frisbees into the crowd? Damn, those were the days.

[@BubbaZen10]

[@davestrain9529]

They Called it the homecoming Shows?? I remember This from Alex Winters IMPACT VHS " Hows business?? Sparse//" LOL

[@VincentOfDreamhouse]

ROFLMAO...that dude @1:10 totally bit it...and that girly was cracking up at his ass...!!!

[@BubbaZen10]

Ah, so, i just gave a guy a little bit of shit for saying a clip was from the Ritual De Lo Habitual tour in 1989, when that album didn't come out until 1990. Now i see, they were using that phrase on banners this early. This must have been where the confusion came from. I knew the footage he had was NOT from the actual tour for that album, cause Perry still had long hair. But, it seems, i may need to go back and apologize. (i wasn't mean at all, but just questioned the naming of the vid)

[@bryanrawls4794]

Looks like the girl from Weeds on the thumbnail.

[@hardchargers27]

You wanna hear something funny? Just listen closely to that guitar...holy freakin god! 1989 was actually one of JAs worst years live, I think. Late 1990/early 91 was their prime.

[@user-po5bi6jb9g]

Why did they split?

[@turdferguson3855]

ciaran fay drugs and egos.

[@eis904]

ciaran fay perry turned into a shameless prick

[@theyearoftherat]

@ciaran fay - First off Eric and Perry had a rift that was worsened when Eric came out that he was into Perry's girl Casey. Then Perry took 62.5% of all sales and royalties - Dave, Eric, and Stephen received only 12.5% each. Cliff notes: www.spin.com/2003/06/dance-decadence-uncensored-history-janes-addiction/
