Torn Muscle Doesn’t Stop Perry Farrell

Talk about starting off on the wrong foot. Perry Farrell tore a calf muscle shortly after Jane’s Addiction took the stage in Atlanta last night, but says the injury won’t disrupt the band’s touring schedule.
It happened during the first song of the band’s set at Lakewood Amphitheatre, but trooper that he is, the Lollapalooza founder went on to finish the set. Farrell was taken to Atlanta Medical Center after the show, according to a publicist.
Associated Press reports doctors told Farrell to stay off his leg for several days, but the singer says he still plans to perform Tuesday night at the band’s next gig in Austin.
Guess you could say he still has a leg to stand on.
Update! Dave Navarro Twittered from the tour bus this morning, saying Farrell is fine and the band is on the road to Austin.
