Good news for Black Crowes fans, They have announced a tour in support of their upcoming album, Happiness Bastards. Last we heard the Black Crowes were supporting Aerosmith on the Peace Out tour. As of now those dates and info have not been made public. But are being rescheduled for 2025. Aerosmith has postponed all of the remaining shows on its farewell tour until 2024 because of a vocal injury suffered by its frontman, Steven Tyler, according to a statement made by the rock band on Facebook.

The breakup of the band in January 2015 was due to a disagreement with Chris & Rich Robinson over ownership of the band.

20 Times Multiple Classic Albums Came Out On The Same Day

A number of days in rock history were marked by the release of classic albums that came out on the same day.

Examples of this span a number of decades. In the 1960s, The Beatles were involved in two of these instances with The Kinks and David Bowie. The 1970s saw The Rolling Stones release an album on the same day as the Ramones said “Gabba Gabba Hey!” to the world. In the 1980s, heavy metal icons Judas Priest released a classic album on the same day Iron Maiden dropped their debut. As for the 1990s, you’ll be shocked to learn just how many times classic LPs were released on the same day. By “classic LPs,” we mean some of the great albums of all time.
