I love this review of the Jane's Addiction and Primus (Primos) show at the Academy.

Jane's 'Ritual De Lo Habitual' has been a constant in my life since its release in 1991and I'm gutted I chose to watch Little Angels play in Bradford instead of coming here. The band imploded not long afterwards and didn't visit Manchester again until 2003.

Three things I missed by not being here:

1. Primus arriving onstage in a pair of thermal long johns.
2. A stage littered with flowers, fairly lights and ethnic dolls.
3. Perry Farrell sharing a bottle of wine with the audience before starting the show.

Did you go to this show? If so, tell us your story in the comments below.
