Woodstock '94, Winston Farm, Saugerties, NY, 8-12-1994 to 8-14-1994 - Day 3, Part 14: Porno for Pyros

The 14th album from Day Three of the Woodstock '94 Festival is a set by the band Porno for Pyros.

Perry Ferrell lead the band Jane's Addiction from 1985 to 1991. They grew increasingly popular, with their 1990 album selling two million copies in the U.S. But they broke up due to the usual drug and ego problems many bands have. 

Ferrell, the main singer and songwriter, along with the drummer Stephen Perkins, recruited two new members and formed the band Porno for Pyros. They put out the album "Porno for Pyros" in 1993. Ferrell was really committed to his new band, because he didn't play ANY Jane's Addiction songs in this concert. However, the band was already working on their second album (which would come out as "Good God's Urge" in 1995), and they played a few songs that would eventually appear on that. 

They also opened their set with a rather unusual but interesting Jimi Hendrix cover, "Hey Baby (New Rising Sun)." 

Porno for Pyros would last long after the release of their second album. Instead, Ferrell would alternate between solo projects, Jane's Addiction reunions, and other band projects.

This album is 52 minutes long.
