Jane’s Addiction

In February 2009, Jane's Addiction rocked the stage at the Playboy Rock The Rabbit Party during SXSW, a pivotal moment during their renewed fame. Just before this live performance, the band had released their album 'The Great Escape Artist' in 2011, but the energy of their earlier work, especially 'Nothing's Shocking' and 'Ritual de lo Habitual,' still resonated in their set. This live gig was one of their first major appearances after reuniting, and it showcased the band's signature blend of alternative rock and theatrical performance that made them iconic in the '90s. Interestingly, the song selection often leaned heavily toward fan favorites, reminding everyone why they were hailed as pioneers of the alternative scene. The SXSW event was not just another show; it was a celebration of their legacy and a testament to their enduring impact on rock music.
