    I get the same feeling that the Crowes are done.

    I don't know if they are done. This isn't the first hiatus they've taken with no plans to get back together. Honestly i could see this as a way for Steve to get press for Trigger Hippy, without some Crowes news not sure if the Ro!ling Stone would care much about that band. The first time they took a break Steve wasn't even in the band when they got back together initially and there have been tons of issues between him and the Brothers Robinson so until they say it is over I'll be optimistic they come back at some point. I do love their other projects though.

    You would be correct. Rich Robinson said the band is done. Chris wanted Rich to relinquish a big portion of his stake in the band, and wanted their drummer of 28 years to relinquish his ENTIRE stake in the band. What a dick.

    Darwinspeed, all. 

    Cheers,

    So sad. Only caught the Crowes once, but it was a jaw dropping show. Raw talent, raw rock n roll. My feet hurt from dancing and I had a stupid smile on my face well after the show. They'll be missed!

    Boo. Even thought this confirms what we all already knew, it still hurts to hear. TBC is up there close to PJ in my musical pantheon. I enjoy the brothers Robinson's solo pursuits but they don't add up to the sum of what they're able to create together. Perhaps they'll have a change of heart in the years to come.

    First show I ever went to. 1994 supporting the Amorica album. Saw them again maybe in 2000. I guess all good things come to an end.

    Although Chris is kind of a dick, I dig his stuff with CRB. Got tickets to see the CRB in two weeks at a tiny club in Minneapolis.

    Rich's comments make me wonder, in terms of a business, how much brotherhood is actually in the Chris Robinson Brotherhood? b-(

    This is probably why their catalog still hasn't been re-issued on vinyl?

    Soundstage Direct has their vinyl reissues up for pre-order, but no release date. Did a quick Google search, but found nothing. Anyone know anything about this? I know there have been rumors for awhile.
