Black country communion - new (2nd) cd and tour

Anyone else getting in to this? I love the first cd! Can't wait for the second!

They are only doing 4 shows in the US before the European tour. Man I wish this stuff would fair better in the US as these types of shows are few and far between!

One show is in Anaheim though so I'll be going! Rumor has it MSG will open the 4 US shows too!

Anyone else digging the cd or going to a show? Scott you fly I'll buy! I sense an LA road trip in your future! Call me!

I wasn't initially blown away with the first album, but it's certainly grown on me. I dig it and I'm looking forward to the next one as well.

I posted some updates on the new album, but they were already in the dead zone...

If you ever read Classic Rock magazine out of the UK, they make it sound like BCC is equivilent to the 2nd coming of JC. I don't think an issue has gone by since this group came to be where they didn't get an interview, article, review, mention, blurb, etc.

Which probably contributed to my lofty expectations and subsequent disappoinment the first time I played it. It took some time before it sank in. It's one of the better releases of 2010 for me.

PS if a mod wants to move that original post from the RIP zone to the current forums, please do so. Thanx.

It was one of my favorites for 2010 as well! Haven't picked up classic rock mag in a while. Can't believe it's $12 a copy! Although it is the best mag out there right now!

Had a cool encounter with Glen Hughes last year too at the Led Zep experience show. Very nice man! Hope the new album lives up to the hype.

Here's a story I just read about MSG being their support act...
