That's it. With equal parts regret and relief, the Jane's Addiction experiment is at an end.

I know in my soul when something feels like a sell out and I think for me, I knew that if I did the Jane's Addiction reunion thing, that I would feel like a sell out. That's how it would feel to me.

Addiction is a repeated temporary...stilling. I am concerned with peace...not mere relief.

I've sort of had an investigatory relationship with being a musician. I really wasn't sure what I wanted to do. I felt I had had my run - I had done Jane's and I wasn't particularly interested in music anymore.

I feel that Jane's is really a vibe and a time. It wasn't like we were the Beatles. We didn't have crafty pop songs where it sort of didn't matter who played them because they're just really great songs.

There are all kinds of addicts, I guess. We all have pain. And we all look for ways to make the pain go away. (107)
