The Black Crowes New Album and Tour
The Black Crowes will be releasing their new album, Warpaint, on March 4 and are going to perfrom a series of one-night stands in support of it.
Warpaint is the first studio album from the Crowes in seven years, their last effort was 2001’s Lions. You can listen to the first single from Warpaint, “Goodbye Daughters of the Revolution” on their site right now.

Just looked into the prices for the Newcastle gig down here in Australia.
I’m sorry, I love the Crowes but I am not paying $120 for a theatre ticket. I think they’ll be very dissappointed with crowd turnout with those prices.
Wow, that’s not right. That’s highway robbery, which sucks because the Crowes do put on a great show.
I didn’t bother checking in to prices for the shows in the States, because there wasn’t a show that close to me, but maybe I’ll check them out when they come back around.
