PERRY FARRELL - JANE'S ADDICTION SCRAP DATES

Rockers JANE'S ADDICTION have cancelled their New Year American tour, claiming they're too exhausted to play live.

The group, which features PERRY FARRELL and newly-married DAVE NAVARRO were due to play a handful of shows beginning next weekend (27DEC03) with MARILYN MANSON, but they've scrapped them all.

Farrell says, "Due to exhaustion brought on by a rigorous touring schedule, Jane's Addiction has decided to call off our holiday run and all head south to the equator, where we hope to find rest and a new perspective for 2004.

"We apologise to all of our fans and hope that they will understand."
