6 European dates before they go on another hiatus - I don't know when they last came to UK?

Looks like Manc is sold out already, can't wait!

Hope you have a great time Dave. Have you read the article in Guitar Buyer on Rich Robinsons guitar rig? It's pretty good - right up my street with the simple/old school approach.

I saw them in Cardiff in the mid 90's - fantastic - would love to see them again.

Yeah - I liked that too.  Proper old skool!

Well I've just got back from the gig  :D  Been waiting ages for today to come round.

Wow.  Just wow.  Front of house mix was stupendously good, best live sound I've ever heard.  Musicianship was amazing, with great interplay across the whole band.

I'll be retiring from work now to:

a) Grow a beard
b) Learn how to play slide
c) Grow some talent
d) Set up a Black Crowes tribute band

One of my top 3 gigs of all time.  Outstanding!

I'd forgotten about this. I was very jealous when you originally posted and am even more so now! Tribute band sounds like a great idea - not so sure about the beard though!

What were the stand out tracks?

Ha ha!  I reckon I could get away with a beard if need be  ;)

Stand out tracks?  She Talks To Angels and Jealous Again were my favourites, plus there was a massive 10-15 minute Allman Bros style improv in the middle that was superb  8)

Balls, should have gone to this!

I saw them at Glastonbury in 1995 and they were great then in about 2003 with Audly Freed.

Rich Robinson is great!

I know I could Wiki it, but is it still that Luther Dickinson(sp?) bloke?


(I almost wrote Luther Grosvenor, from Mott the Hoople!  That'd be weird. :lol: )
