i was camping this past weekend and put in the first Candlebox CD and it brought back so many good memories from the early 90s.

I see they are on tour again: http://pollstar.com/tour/searchall.pl?By=All&Content=candlebox&go_green.x=0&go_green.y=0

Was wondering if anyone has hear if Kevin Martin is on lead vocals again. I know he had another band going for a while, but I can't find any information on Candlebox now.

    I get to go see them in Atlanta in August. I can't wait for this shit. I heard they put on a really good show!! I don't think they have played since 97 so this should be some good shit!
    We need Pearl Jam in Atlanta!!! 2006-2007

    The dirty south needs a fix.

    Has anyone seen them live on this tour?? Damn I can't believe I didn't know about this tour until today! They sent me a friends request (probably not Kevin himself...lol) on myspace with the tour info. AWESOME!!!!! I can't wait...Happy Pills is one of my all time favorite non-PJ albums.

    blast from the past for sure, I saw them at the Roseland back in like Nov 94 with the flaming lips and sweetwater...so damn good

    wonder if they still hold up live
    If it weren't for my horse, I never would have spent that year in college.

    They are playing a free show in Raleigh next month at Moore Square park. Gotta try to get down to this.
    I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me.

    I wonder if they change up their set-lists each show...maybe I'll make the short drive to Wichita to see them and again in Denver...

    I remember the laugh I got from Peter Klett when I told him that their first album got me laid more times than I can count. Good band...good, melodic songwriting.

    glad they are touring again...i think they were an underrated band and i think Happy Pills, their last album didnt get enough respect
