As Farrell says in his lawsuit, the history of Jane's Addiction has been peppered with "well-documented" antagonism between its "original" members, who settled in as the lineup in 1986, a year after the band was founded. That antagonism is clear in both complaints, which were reviewed by The Times.

Perry Farrell claims Jane's Addiction bandmates Dave Navarro, Eric Avery and Stephen Perkins harassed him onstage before filing a $10 million lawsuit against him.

Lead singer Perry Farrell and the other three band members of Jane's Addiction have filed competing legal complaints against each other.

Farrell alleged the band attempted to to "undermine him by playing their instruments at a high volume so that he could not hear himself sing without blasting his own in-ear monitors at an unsafe level.

Jane’s Addiction singer Perry Farrell alleges Dave Navarro and other bandmates mounted a ‘bullying campaign’ against him.

According to Deadline, Navarro, 58, the band’s guitarist, bassist Eric Avery and drummer Stephen Perkins sued Farrell for $10 million Wednesday in Los Angeles Superior Court. The lawsuit accuses Farrell of a “brutal and unprovoked” onstage attack on Navarro.

The incident, which took place at the Leader Bank Pavilion, happened about two-thirds of the way through the band’s reunion tour of the U.S. and Canada, which was its first with the band’s full lineup: Farrell, Navarro, drummer Stephen Perkins and bassist Eric Avery.
