From the beginning, Janes Addiction have thrown the most unique parties in rock, mixing a fierce musicality with theatrical flair onstage. 2012 saw the band, who have always outrageously combined electricity, sex and danger, return to the stage in support of their acclaimed album The Great Escape .

Live In NYC was filmed and recorded in New York City at Terminal 5 on December 29th, 2012 during a special run of North American shows called Theatre of the Escapists with the band performing in intimate venues, most of which are classic theatres. The alternative rock pioneers - frontman Perry Farrell, guitarist Dave Navarro and drummer Stephen Perkins - along with Chris Chaney on bass - captured this immersive theatrical experience on tape.
