04/30/2001:Black Crowes Get Their Pride Out
The Black Crowes celebrated the completion of their new album, Lions, by taking roost at a Manhattan nightclub Saturday (February 3) and performing a 10-song set in front of a celebrity-studded crowd that included Mick Jagger and Moby.
Taking the stage of The Bank shortly after midnight, frontman Chris Robinson and sibling guitarist Rich Robinson led the Crowes through four new songs to kick off the concert, an invitation-only bash hosted by V2 Records owner Richard Branson.
After premiering Lions tracks "Midnight From the Inside Out," "Lickin'," "Greasy Grass River" and "Young Man, Old Man," the Black Crowes then rolled out several familiar cuts, including "Seeing Things," "Horsehead," "Wiser Time" and "Thorn in My Pride."
With new bassist Andy Hess in tow, the Black Crowes finished up the evening by enlisting foreign aid on a pair of numbers. Gordie Johnson, lead singer and guitarist for Canada's Big Sugar, laid down some slide guitar on a cover of Fleetwood Mac's "Oh Well."
Stereophonics frontman Kelly Jones, a V2 Records label-mate and past UK touring partner of the Black Crowes, helped close out the evening by singing lead vocals on "Twice as Hard," the first track off the Crowes' 1990 debut, Shake Your Money Maker.
According to the Crowes' publicists, producer Don Was, guitarist Peter Frampton, singer Nona Hendryx, glam rock band Spacehog and actors Liv Tyler, Liev Schreiber and Chris Robinson's mother-in-law, Goldie Hawn, were among the guests who turned out for the record completion party.
Produced by Was and recorded at a studio converted from an old Yiddish theatre on Manhattan's Lower East Side, the Black Crowes' Lions is due in mid-May.
04/30/2001: Black Crowes Sue Over Canceled Tour
The Black Crowes are still looking for a remedy - a legal one, this time.
On Wednesday, February 28, the band sued Lloyd's of London, claiming that the insurance firm failed to honor its agreement with the group after Jimmy Page's back injury forced the cancellation of nearly a month's worth of tour dates last fall.
The Crowes and Page took out an insurance policy from Lloyd's to cover any losses that might come from canceled gigs, according to a statement issued by the Atlanta-based rockers. After a successful run of shows in June and July, Page hurt his back, forcing an end to the tour, which featured a mix of Black Crowes tunes and classics from Page's former band Led Zeppelin.
The suit, filed in Los Angeles, alleges that Lloyd's failed to compensate the band for scrapped September and October dates in the U.S. and Europe, including a planned co-headlining run with the Who at Madison Square Garden.
The suit alleges the band suffered "great financial loss" from missed income and wasted preparation expenses.
A spokesperson for Lloyd's of London had no comment.

09/09/00: Page, Black Crowes Scrub U.S., European Tours
September 8, 2000 8:51 pm EST
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Former Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page and the rock band the Black Crowes have canceled
the remainder of their joint U.S. tour and upcoming European dates, due to a back injury Page suffered last month, their
publicist said on Friday.
Page, 56, enjoying a career renaissance performing with the Black Crowes, "has been ordered to have complete rest for the
next six weeks, at which point he will be reassessed," spokesman Mitch Schneider said in a statement.
Surgery is a possibility, Schneider added.
"Page wants to express his great disappointment and distress over letting his fans down, as well as the Black Crowes,"
Schneider said. "The Black Crowes send their sincere wishes to Page for a healthy recovery and hope fans will understand."
No details about Page's condition have been disclosed since tour organizers announced in August that the British guitar hero
had hurt his back, forcing Page and the Crowes to cancel eight dates on the second leg of their U.S. tour last month.
With Friday's statement, the hot combo has now canceled a dozen more dates that were to have run Sept. 15 through Oct. 7 in
the United States.
Those dates include three appearances Page and the Crowes were to have made at Madison Square Garden in New York
City, co-headlining with The Who, to cap the third and final leg of their U.S. tour.
Page and the Crowes also have scrubbed 13 European dates that had been scheduled to run from Nov. 12 through Nov. 27,
their spokesman said.
If Page's recovery permits, he and the Crowes might be able to reschedule some shows in New York and to perform as
planned in Japan in December, the publicist said. Tickets for the canceled shows will be refunded at the point of purchase.
09/09/00: The Allman Brothers, Black Crowes, Gov't Mule and Friends will appear at
Roseland,NY Sept 21st. for a tribute to Allen Woody. Should be Memorable!!
08/25/00: JIMMY PAGE and the BLACK CROWES have rescheduled three of the seven

Crowes and The Summer Tour
(4/21/00, 3 p.m. ET) - The Black Crowes are very busy these days. Currently in pre-production
for the recording of their next album, which begins May 9, the group is also making plans for its
summer tour with Jimmy Page, with rehearsals set to begin May 21.
Many fans and observers assumed Page and the Crowes would continue the association they
began during a handful of shows in 1999, which resulted in the Internet album Live At The
Greek. However, Crowes lead singer Chris Robinson tells LAUNCH that the artists themselves
weren't as certain. "We didn't really plan on that," he said of the album. "These things have
kind of just fallen into place. You know, it's funny -- I did an interview with somebody the other
day, and I got really frustrated with him. 'Are you not listening to me, kid? Jimmy Page is a
musician who happened to be in a band called Led Zeppelin that we all love. We're musicians
who have a band called the Black Crowes, and we got together 'cause we wanted to play music
together.' You know, it's not really that difficult a concept. There's no marketing strategy."
Jimmy Page and the Black Crowes -- who will be sharing a road crew and production with the
The Who this summer -- are slated to kick off their tour on June 24 in Chicago.
-- Gary Graff, Detroit
The Black Crowes have fired bass guitar player Sven Pipien and replaced him with Greg Rzab, according to the band's official
website. Rzab has played with several well-known blues acts, including Buddy Guy, Tab Benoit and Otis Rush.
Pipien joined the Black Crowes in 1997, when he replaced Johnny Colt, the band's original bass player. Pipien played on the
Crowes' 1999 album "By Your Side" and on the Crowes-Jimmy Page concert album "Live at the Greek."
Rumors of a rift between Pipien and the other members of the band have been circulating for much of the year, but, according to the
website, his dismissal was a recent development.
