Jane’s Addiction’s Live Voodoo

What:

    This Friday, October 15th, KMUD and Mateel will present a free screening of the new Jane’s Addiction ‘s film, Live Voodoo, at the Mateel Community Center in Redway.  Filmed live in concert on Halloween night 2009 at Voodoo Experience in New Orleans, Live Voodoo sees the reunion of the classic Jane’s Addiction line-up of Perry Farrell (vocals), Stephen Perkins (drums), Eric Avery (bass), and Dave Navarro (guitar). This spectacular show captures the band in top form with twin girl dancers and Perry Farrell at his most mesmerizing.

      The DVD will be presented on a full sized screen with the Mateel’s top notch sound system, offering a lifelike concert experience.  Doors open at 7:30pm with film at 8:30.  KMUD will be preparing a New Orleans style meal before the film and Mateel will run a beer and wine bar.  The event is free to attend and as close to a real Jane’s Addiction show that we’ll likely ever get in Southern Humboldt.  For more information contact KMUD at 923-2513/ www.kmud.org or Mateel at 923-3368/ www.mateel.org and don’t miss this free screening of Jane’s Addiction Live Voodoo on Friday, October 15th.
