TROUBLE shows this weekend

[Jasonic]

Great pics!
I was just joking. I did not mind at all that you posted the pic. It's cool that others will get a chance to see what some of us look like...

I heard that they scratched MINDBENDER and WICKEDNESS OF MAN.

MINDBENDER is great live, though they had been playing it all last year anyhow.

I'm not bothered by the pic showing up .. figured it would. I wish Bob could have joined us at the Gay Pride Parade. He would have fit right in.

The gauntlet has been thrown!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

April Illinois Entertainer listed Trouble's Bruce Franklin and Rick Wartell as their number 18 of 20 "greatest Chicago guitarists", right behind Styx' James Young and Michael Angelo Batio. It states "Bruce and Rick didn't alter any courses as much as preserve them. With heavy metal addicted to speed in the '80s, Trouble kept the focus on Black Sabbath's legacy, giving rise to doom."

Awesome!! Glad to see Rick and Bruce get the credit they deserved. It's a damn shame they aren't mentioned alongside other great long-time guitar duos.

I will give IE a cock-punch if Corgan - Iha are on that list!!!!!

Here's TROUBLE performing "The Sleeper" from last week in Ohio.
(and no Britt, that's NOT Howard Stern fronting TROUBLE these days....)

Thanks for checking out the pics, Jason. Haven't checked The Sleeper link yet but thanks for that too! Any other reports coming in from Europe yet? I've only seen something about a cancellation in Italy or Switzerland or maybe both. That's too bad.

Haven't picked up the April IE yet but will do that soon. Thanks for the heads up on the article, KG. April is usually the "Guitar Month" issue.

I was curious too if the Euro tour was happening.
I heard Oly say they may have lost the financial support from ESCAPI for the Euro tour.

Ha....you better get your fists ready. Corgan was listed at number 11...uke:

Ugh...
I do like some Pumpkins material, though I think too many 90's alterna-guitarists get credited as "amazing" guitarists, when all they do different is play alternate tunings in unique time measurements.
