Davy Knowles opening for Jeff Beck.... (Page 2 of 2)

we were talking about previous bands he had opened for

Here's a news blast from Back Door Slam Headquarters:

"GREETINGS!
Hope you're all fine and dandy and 2009 is treating you well?

Most of you will have seen by now that tour dates have slowly been 'growing' on the website - there are a few more to add to the Summer dates so keep checking back on those. The summer line up will be 'Davy Knowles & Back Door Slam' - rehearsals are taking place with the band this week, and we'll be revealing the names of the musicians that'll be on tour as soon as know more ourselves...

Last week also saw the release of the exciting news that Davy will be supporting legendary guitar player JEFF BECK on his Spring Tour across America - again, all dates are listed on backdoorslam.com. Although it's a solo tour, Davy will be getting out his electric guitars during the set too, so it'll be a rocking gig! Although some of the dates are already sold out (check the ticket sales links on the gigs page) these shows will see the first public airing of some of the new material from the follow up album to 'Roll Away'.

Speaking of the new record, Davy has now finished in the studio and the album is almost ready for mixing & mastering. If you've been following him on twitter or myspace, you'll know that he had a great time working with Peter Frampton (one of his heroes!) and the album is sounding great. Here's an interview Davy conducted with Peter, en route to the studio (you can see other videos on Davy's myspace)

We're also finalising plans for a special Vinyl & digital download release - 'Live At Bonnaroo'. The BDS gig at the festival last year was one of the highlights of their touring together and, of course, features Adam and Ross, so this record is bound to be a collectors item in years to come! We'll let you know when we have a date for that, but keep checking the myspace and website too.

That's it for now - quite a bit going on in the world of Davy and Back Door Slam!
Thanks as ever for your continued support, hope to see you at a gig sometime, somewhere soon...
CHEERS
BACK DOOR SLAM"

I'll pass.....be careful where you park, Bob.  I took my son up there for a Dream Theater show in '00 or '01 and when I came out to my car, passenger-side window was broken and my CD player and leather jacket were gone and there was glass all over the inside of the car....in February....brrrrr. ;-(

Have a blast.

That link was to a John Hiatt song Slow Turning. Is there one to As The Crow Flies?

Hi-

Melissa and I are going to see Jeff Beck tonight at the Cleveland HOB.  I was wondering if anybody knows how long the show is.  I just wanted to tell my babysitter approximately
what time we will be home tonight.

Thanks,

Dean

Hi Jane-

A full report will be on your desk by 9:00 am EST!! LOL!

Take care-

Dean
