The summer 2001 album Trust No One (Capitol Records) marked his solo debut. The band assembled for the accompanying US tour consisted of Navarro, guitarist Dave Kushner (who would go on to form Velvet Revolver ), bassist Miiko Watanabe and drummer Angel Roché Jr.. He would later state that touring as a vocalist was harder to prepare for every night than just playing guitar, and wouldn’t want to sing again. In 2002, Jane’s Addiction reformed with bass player Chris Chaney and started work on a new album. The band entered the studio with veteran rock producer Bob Ezrin , resulting in the album Strays and the Lollapalooza 2003 tour in support of the album. In 2002, Michael Jackson performed at the Apollo Theater for the Democratic National Convention , and Navarro was set to play guitar for his hit song ” Black or White “. The song was ultimately cut from the set, but there are pictures and video snippets for the rehearsals. During this time Navarro also made a cameo in Mariah Carey ‘s ” Bringin’ On the Heartbreak ” music video.
