Pop star provocateur and entrepreneur Perry Farrell (real name Bernstein) started Jane’s Addiction in Los Angeles in 1986, dissolving the band shortly after 1990s Ritual de lo Habitual made the group arena stars.
From its ashes, Farrell formed Porno for Pyros, whose debut album was released on Warner Bros in 1993.
Farrell’s dream project, the Lollapalooza festival, has become an internationally renowned music event.
