When I saw Lollapalooza in '03, half (not an exaggeration) of the people left after Audioslave because they didn't want to stick around for the "headliner" Jane's Addiction. :lol: :lol:

My answer is no.

Jane's Addiction from 2001-2003 was a completely different band than the janes from 1986-1991. The original version was one of the best and most influentual bands that existed, imo.

Even with that, I'd easily take the 2003 janes over audioslave. I attended that lollapalooza as well and thought Chris Cornell sounded terrible and the members of Rage looked incredibly bored.

I would tend to disagree.

I was one of those people that stayed after Audioslave in 2003 because I was really excited to see Jane's Addiction. I loved their old stuff and even loved Strays.

I was let down big time. Not a good show, and the one song encore of "Jane Says" just seemed like a "we don't feel like playing anymore but we didn't do this one yet" performance.

I saw them in 03 on Lolla and was really impressed. It was probably a bad move on their part that they had to go on after Audioslave, but they played a great set. A lot of people did leave but the ones that stayed loved them.

I always thought Stop was a really cool song.

At one time, Jane's might have been my favorite band, but I've kind of ignored any of their post-1991 output. I have Strays DL'd on my HD, but I haven't brought myself to listen to it.

On that note, I don't think there's enough material to do a tourney. Unless everyone gets one song. Of course, I barely thought Pink Floyd had enough material to do a tourney.

I actually like Strays quite a bit and considering the time lapse between the albums, it sounds surprisingly fluid with the rest of their work. You should give it a listen.

I'd even go as far as 1997.

Nothing's Shocking and Ritual De Lo Habitual should be owned by any fan of rock music. Both are nearly flawless and massively influential.
