Cause maybe Pagey is getting too old to keep up w/ the Crowes or just doesn't have the energy...

Saw an article the other day about him planning a tour in late 2013.

We'll see if that ever pans out.

Anyone who's a Crowes fan knows that Chris didn't like the Page tour and that he didn't have fun doing it. He's NOT a fan of Robert Plant's vocals and lyrics and I guess to some extent Led Zeppelin as a whole and when he was doing press for his solo record, he made sure to make it known. The genesis for that tour was contractual from what I recall, which is why there wasn't a lot of Crowes songs performed and none made it onto the Live at the Greek album from what I recall.

Also, did anyone read the press release on the Crowes website? This tour is to promote their latest live album Wiser for the Time. It contains a list of band members. The Crowes are known for their obnoxious press releases and this one seemed to be really down to Earth.

I know he got sick of that tour pretty quickly, but I was not under the impression that he wasn't a fan of Robert Plant.

Any chance that Page's back problems during that tour might have been a cover for his leaving early ?

I remember being so pissed off that I didn't get to see the Houston show due to Page's inability to be there.
If I remember right they were touring with The Who, playing consecutive nights in each city.

If you guys are really into going to these shows, just know that the sellout is a fucking joke. Tickets will be available. You should be able to get them on Stub Hub as the dates approach for UNDER face. Pete is just trying to create demand for the band. Its a wonder the fans keep coming back. The band is run by mental midgets.

Also, Sven is WAY better than Johnny. I'll take Sven. Johnny just looked cool, which counts for something, but yeah...Sven all the way.
