It's official: lollapalooza is staying in Chicago. perryfarrell shared the news with SPIN over a game of Connect 4 (basketball edition), and also chatted about reforming pornoforpyros, his favorite Lolla lineups, and much more.
“I loved it because we were able to travel,” he says of the early era. “That was what was different from Woodstock, as an example. Woodstock was an amazing destination. But we were able to take it and bring it to different cities— a musical caravan. By the time we reimagined it here in Chicago, it was wonderful. You have a chance to think all year about one weekend.
“Now that we’ve got it going around the world, it’s just a start,” he says. “Where we’re needed and where we’re wanted, we will show up. That’s what I think the world is coming to culturally. It’s no longer about borders, but it is about unity. We use this as our vehicle to come and, as like I say, ‘share the love, spread the love.'”
But Farrell’s most surprising move of 2022 has been reforming Porno for Pyros. Earlier this year, Jane’s Addiction canceled their Welcome to Rockville set due to what they said was Dave Navarro’s battle with long COVID. Not wanting to disappoint the promoters, Farrell got his other band back together, offering slightly different version of the group with bassist Mike Watt that had first performed for the 2020 Lollapalooza livestream.
“Everybody was up for it except for Martyn,” Farrell says. “Martyn wasn’t quite there yet, but behind the scenes, Martyn and I were recording new material. I love Martyn, and we had a bad falling out. It happens, that when you’re a young man, you make stupid mistakes. And then hopefully, before you die, you can correct some of them or most of them.”at Welcome to Rockville, Watt was still on bass, which rankled LeNoble enough to reach out to his former bandmate.
