Just returned home from attending back-to-back concerts in two different cities with one of my favorite bands–The Black Crowes. Why would I do that you ask? Aren’t you just seeing the same show twice?

NO. You will never see the same show twice with the Crowes–Chris, Rich, Steve, Sven, Luther and Adam. What a freakin’ great band! Any song from any album is fair game. They don’t just play the hits–the fourteen songs or so that a lot of bands play these days at a gig. The Crowes play everything. You heard me. Everything. The hardcore fans like me can only try to guess what they’re going to play next and thrill to whatever it is. And believe me, we are thrilled. These two shows only had two repeat songs out of the sixteen played at each. See what I mean?

The Black Crowes have been hailed as “The Most Rock ‘n’ Roll Rock ‘n’ Roll Band in the World”. Yes, they are. They boogie and jam with blues, rock, funk, country, and even a little gospel thrown in. I have to say I love every album they’ve ever made. Chris grabs the audience as soon as he walks onstage like a fiery preacher at the pulpit. What a front man he is!

As they sing “Walk Believer Walk”, there’s no problem with me. I am one of the believers. I’d follow them anywhere.…and probably will.
