Since we're giving away Black Crowes tickets all this week, and weekend, I thought it was timely to post this today.

It was so cool.  This past summer I was at the Ringo show at the Met when a guy I know introduced me to his friend, who was also attending the concert.  I look up, and it's freakin Steve Gorman - founding member and drummer for The Black Crowes!  After a nice pre-show chat, we made plans to have a more formal chat to talk about his new memoir, "Hard To Handle:  The Life And Death Of the Black Crowes."

Knowing he'd have nothing to do with any potential Crowes reunion (we recorded this when the news was still in 'rumor' phase), I spent the interview chatting about both his memoir, his OTHER band, Trigger Hippy, and The Bee Gees (!)  He has so many great stories to share!
