I think I am in a minority here but I love Jane's. They were a BAND. The real thing. Yeah, some of their stuff hasn't aged great (most, though, is timeless) and they didn't always hit the mark but when they did (like Then She Did, 3 Days, Classic Girl, Slow Divers, etc.) it was magic. They were also much better live than on record. But their last one was just okay, not the same. Navarro has turned into an ego-maniacal twit of the highest order, Perry is even deeper into la-la land than ever, Eric Avery had the good sense to stay away for the last go-round and Perkins, well, he's okay, I guess. Still, who wants a reunion? I'd much rather see a Porno reunion now then a Jane's one.
