Chris Robinson Opening For Elvis
I saw in the Boston Globe this morning that Chris Robinson (Former Black Crowe, Goldie Hawn's son in law) will be opening for Elvis in Boston. I assume he'll be the support act for the summer tour.
I saw the Black Crowes twice and was disappointed both times - even though I kind of like the group and have some of their discs. I saw them with Oasis and I though they got blown off the stage (can you imagine Oasis opening for the Crowes) - and I saw them with Jimmy Page where they just did Zepplin songs and Robinson had the lyrics out in front of him on a teleprompter.
I was hoping beyond hope for Wreckless Eric.

I'll be seeing him in Philadelphia in July and was a little disappointed by Chris Robinson too.
I'm not angry anymore....

I saw he Black Crowes twice. Once before their first album got big. And they were smashing. Then again after their first album got big. They were pathetic. And every album after was a huge pile of crap.
Too bad that Elvis is letting this hack open for him.

maybe I'll like him better than Billy Bob Thornton....
although, I SWEAR John Lennon was playing in Thornton's band....
He looked like John would look in 2002, and he never stepped into the spotlight. He was totally happy to play rhythm guitar in the background...

I havent heard his solo album but I saw the Black Crowes play here in Auckland a few years back in a big tent in the pissing rain and they rocked big time. Towards the end of their set they unveiled a huge backdrop of a giant picture of Leon Russell from the cover of Leon Live - top hat and all. Great show and a great band in my book. I would love to see Chris open for E.C - but thats just me
