Warrant’s Concert in Nevada Was So Bad that Club May Refund Ticket Costs
According to a disgruntled Warrant fan on YouTube, the ticket cost of the band’s Nevada show at Sunset Station last night will be refunded to those who come forward:
“(Vocalist) Jani Lane choked the whole show, he was drunk & was boo’d after every song. Severe disappointment. Sunset Station is refunding money from concert because of such a bad show.”
However, nothing on the club’s site indicates this.
Sleaze Roxx, a site that dutifully covers Glam rock, states that Jani Lane was piss-ass drunk and piss-poor on performance. The site reviewed the show this way:
“…not only did Jani Lane fall off the wagon, he smashed the damn thing into a brick f*cking wall and summed up his career in a shaken, drunken, word forgetting debacle that was just embarrassing.”
Wow. All this from their loyal following! Not a good place for the Down Boys to go.
The disgruntled fan’s videotape below shows the proof of Jani’s bad state. It’s a shame. The band itself sounds tight.
Hopefully, Jani Lane will clean up his act. We always liked him here at Powerline. But it looks like there is no Cherry Pie for Jani Lane coming anytime soon.

Yea, I heard something about how Jani was out of his mind drunk the whole night, but I didn’t know it was that bad. How very interesting. Suddenly I’m glad I’m not much of a Warrant fan, because I’d hate to have to pardon this one.

[...] now out of the band. He was a significant part of what appealed to the band’s fans. However, some of his recent performances suffered from the drunkenness which sapped his vocal quality. He was obviously wrestling with his own [...]

Yeah he had a bad day, we all have bad days, we all make mistakes, its all part of what we call LIFE…. Jani is my all time favorite musician, i have seen him at his highs and his lows, i just pray for everything to work out in the end for him.
much love and much respect for the man Jani Lane!!!!!
