“We chose to play as many of the great theatres that we could find because we wanted to immerse the audience in a unique experience unlike any they have ever seen at a rock show,” Farrell said. “Expect an orgy of musical and visual delights. We like orgies, and hope you do too.”
A presale begins Jan. 10 and the general onsale launches Jan. 14. The band is also offering a special package featuring pre-sale tickets bundled with a high-quality lithograph signed by the band. Head on over to JanesAddiction.com for more info.
