The southern harmony tour was on of the best shows I have ever seen, I miss that lineup.
Garbage Stones wannabe mediocre bar band. Stop it
Saw them on the Amorica tour, they were on fire, amazing!
absolutely, I saw them in Buffalo NY at an old theater that has a steam punk vibe...fit the bad at that time perfectly, I was mesmerized... to this day one of the best shows I have ever seen.
I’d seriously pay just to seat and listen to Chris telling stories for fu#% HOURS 😆❤️
OMG I freaking LOVE them so much!
By commenting and watching this video, u just paid this channel to watch this video, dream come true 👍
@@irishguyjg_2ndchancerecovery try harder not to be that guy.
Great band. So glad Chris & Rich are getting on with each other now 👍
You shafted Steve. He is in my opinion irreplaceable.
I agree 100%. Unfortunately, that's one reunion that'll never happen, thanks to Gorman's tell-all bio. Gorman predicted what would come though. As we all recall, the Robinsons were at each other's throats and Gorman predicted that, after his book was released, the brothers would reconcile, reform the Crowes, and make a big $$$ grab without him in the wake of his book.
Shake your money maker as of today is still the most important album of my life ,I was in my mid to late teens and it brings back the best memories of a great time of my life.
George is the man!!!
Wait did Chris just say sorry to Rich? I’m glad these bros got it back together- sure do miss CRB though - that was some damn great music they created
They need money. A hole will do anything for money. They had one hit with an obscure blues song. They were a Stones copy/wannabe bar band. F them
Great to see you guys looking so happy again.
Awesome to see them both together, talking and laughing. Especially Rich usually he seems a bit irritated or uninterested in whatever is going on like he doesn’t want to be there. Seeing him with a smile on his face laughing and commenting on things is awesome. It’s good to see them in a good place able to sit around and talk about the good ol days. Maybe one day they can get the entire moneymaker lineup back together that would be awesome.
They seem like they are in a good place. Nice to see them getting along.
❤D O N I S E❤ LOVES YOU ALL
Stories are great but you should really talk about Marc, Steve & Eddie.. That is who I think of this album & touring.
Well Marc and Eddie weren't even in the band yet on SYMM....✌️
I guarantee you they’ll never discuss former band members anymore. Especially Steve.
@@TheRoomfull Fair, but they're here supposedly to promote SHAMC. They have been talking about SYMM for 5 years now. It's tired and boring.
@davidmoorhead Fair enough. I guess I was coming from the angle of in this specific video, starting from the beginning and leading into SYMM. Why would they mention Eddie or Marc at this point?
I think it's as equally boring all the nonstop nonsense about past band members....this band was NEVER built for lifelong bandmates (most aren't) from the start. I'm still glad the key Songwriters are continuing on. Peace Anyways ✌️
@@TheRoomfull But the whole thing here was to promote the SHAMC set. They did SYMM. They released the box, did the tour. It's finished. Why even tread on this ground anymore. This isn't an Anthology project. The first video in this "series" was to kick off conversation about Sting Me. Fine. Now we're back to SYMM and before? While I always want to say that I'm shocked with the decision making in this camp, I stopped actually saying it in 1998 after Chris started to wear ridiculous make up and sequins.
And it's not really nonstop nonsense in regard to past members. Ask the Stones about that. Mick Taylor lives rent free in the minds of all of us Stones fans for however much we love Ron (who, in his own right, is a great player and good guy). Rich and Chris could absolutely tie a knot on the conversation if they just addressed it themselves and mentioned the old guys, their positive contributions, and celebrate a Marc guitar solo without the awkward celebration of the Sting Me cowbell when the solo finally did hit.
I mean, you do see how odd and awkward that last video was, right? You're telling me they couldn't possibly give those guys their due? Just so it's clear - instead of saying that was a monster moment in our recorded history they decided that they needed more fucking cowbell. Process that, man. More fucking cowbell.
Rich and Chris ARE an SNL bit at this point.
Love these stories… boys tell great tales .
Marc Ford
Russian fans love you Crowes !!
Greatest band in the world.
No Gorman, no Crowes
Go away then
He’s just a drummer, original member..ya..but nothing special that can’t or hasn’t been replaced…big deal, he wrote a book.. now he’s king s@&t….PLEASE
Hoping you run the whole video🤞
Ahh OD jubilee days in Amorica.. Metro my 1st show.. can I be the Crow Mascot. I used to market you all for V2 records and was supposed to interview RR at Schubas in Chicago. I wasn't prepared.. RR still let me go to the sound check. 😅
Soon starting my own "Tower Records Sunset Blvd" blog on my channel but I had a great rapport with Rick Rubin back then. One day Rick tells me "Goerge is down south, insisting we sign this 'Crowes' band" and " it's weird, these guys look EXACTLY like you , and you're constantly playing those (London) Quireboys ep's... Is it a thing?" I said the timing is perfect! G'n'R is blowing up, and The Stones currently inactive. "Hmmm", he paused. He did not have to remind me his label was really struggling. I see Rick weeks later. "Against my better judgement, I signed 'em". Still nervous! Another friend gave me a cassette copy of "Shake Your Money Maker" which then took 6 months to hit the shelves, but I knew it was a winner.
Chris said at one point, he is to get ALL the money from live shows and pay the rest of the band as employees! LOL
How I love hearing the stories !! I have loved your band since the beginning. I hope you remember me Chris but I am sure you don't. ;)
I’d like for them to do a new studio album of new material-really see those creative juices flowing again.
.. great band.
My all time #1 band 👍👊🇺🇸🤘
I wonder why George didn’t produced the new album?
Doberman warlocks fawn
Hilarious!
I ABSOLUTELY WORE THEIR FIRST ALBUM, ALSO SAW THEM AT A CLUB IN HOUSTON TEXAS WHERE THE AC WAS OUT AND IT WAS ABOUT 110 DEGREES. CHRIS SAID IF YOU ARE WILLING TO STAY IN THIS HEAT WE ARE WILLING TO PLAY AND THEY PLAYED THEIR ASS OFF,
Sorry, THAT SHOULD SAY WORE OUT THEIR FIRST ALBUM. I'M VOICE TEXTING AND SCREW UP FREQUENTLY.
I saw them open for Aerosmith at the Orange County Raceway, Middletown, NY. 1990(?).
I'm equipped double lip service
More lens flare please. My corneas aren’t smoking yet.
Is there any chance for Johnny Colt to come back to the band?
Wow I feel so stupid sometimes how ignorant I am to the world cool fun
I'm lost save me box
I hope we get to hear some Eddie Harsch stories later on. I know there’s some bad blood with Steve and Marc and some of the others, but I think some Ed stories would be great to hear. I’m not like some people that say this isn’t The Black Crowes because such and such aren’t in the band, but I wish we could get some acknowledgment of those older members. Just a simple “Those guys really made our sound back in the day” would be great. I love the current band and I think they’ve assembled a great group of guys that can carry the music forward. I hope we can hear some deeper cuts get played in setlists and some of the jams come back because I have no doubt these new guys can handle it. Peace and Love to everybody!
They’re not gonna discuss former members. Rich and Chris are too egomaniacal, and think they’re the only Black Crowes that matter. The Black Crowes are just a nostalgic act now. Playing the hits for a paycheck. Read Steve’s book if you want some Ed stories, and a glimpse of how money played into Chris’ decision making.
@@deejay7060 That's what I say to anyone who likes the Black Crowes - great band, read Steve's book.
Not a bad book but too much hating on the brothers, from chapter to chapter.
@@ziggypop79 Fans of the whole band, not just the brothers, appreciated the honesty.
@@ziggypop79 There was nothing hateful about anything he wrote. It’s his history of the band the way he saw it. The brothers may have made great music, but they were jerk offs as human beings.
When you're old, you can only talk about how you used to be cool/
Harmony was one of the best 90's albums and Side is 1 of the best comebacks, the rest Meh for me
I beg to differ, Amorica was almost as good as SH&MC, and Before the Frost After the Freeze is amazing (with Luther D killing it on lead).
My least favorite is Three Snakes, but even that had some good tracks on it. All in all, there’s good to great tracks on all their albums. I saw them twice live, in Vegas at the hard rock in 95, and in the Bay Area 26 years later, great live band too!
You cats can whine about these brothers all you want. Band, musicians, is all good if you know, you know
I think I ruined the world
Pig. apples
Hey who really cares ???
The new music is bad
Hey guys I've seen you 15 times and six different states and I just want to let you know that you are not the Black Crowes anymore. When the whole band is missing it can't possibly be the Black Crowes.
Good riddance...don't let the door hit ya. 👍
I’ve seen them twice the last 3 years and it was awesome
@@t.c.189 and the band they have playing behind them are phenomenal musicians it's just not the black crowes. That is what is wrong with people in the world today you read a statement assumed your own narrative and then showed your stupidity
The Black Crowe and his brother band.
Can see your point but the other guys wrote themselves out the story.
Hmm this is very interesting! In Scott Gormans book, he said Chris personally fired George! I do love Chris and the Crowes though..
I liked Rich's story about George not telling his roommate, Peter Mensch, that Rich and Chris were staying with them. Only to discover Rich in his shower lol!
Chris has his pimp outfit on..I hope his pimp hand is strong..
I just attended the concert in Philly. I LOVE YOU SO MUCH I can’t stop listening to your music❤❤❤
Put out a new album and let the new members shine on it.... thats the way The Black Crowes became the incredible band they were on Southern Harmony. See if the new guys can take the band to the level that Marc and Ed did.
