She described the situation as follows:

“Why did this happen? Perry was screaming to be heard over the excessively loud stage volume. Eric Avery, while attempting to de-escalate, instead got involved physically. Dave Navarro was trying to keep Perry at arm’s length, and Eric, in the dark, behind Dan, placed Perry in a headlock and punched him in the stomach three times. Kevin, a crew member, eventually pulled Eric away.”

Lau continued to describe the aftermath: “Eric nonchalantly walked off to apologize to the audience for the early end to the show. Meanwhile, Perry, who looked increasingly agitated, eventually broke down in tears. Eric either didn’t understand de-escalation or took advantage of the situation to get in a few cheap shots.”

The incident has sparked wide spread speculation about the future of Jane’s Addiction.
