It is OFISHAL! Chris Dowd back in Fishbone
Tue, Jan 30th 2018, 7 years ago by nijumu
After having been gone almost 25 years, Chris Dowd was back on keys and trombone this last Saturday, January 27th 2018 at the House of Blues in Anaheim (CA), for a special show case closing the NAMM. Just one year after the return of Fish Fisher (drums) and John Bigham (guitars), this latest comeback makes the probability of a full reunion higher than ever. Guitarist Kendall Jones, who was present at NAMM, is the last original member still missing. The current line up is thus the same one that did the Give a Monkey a Brain... tour back in 1993-mid 1994 (including Lollapalooza and euro tours with opening acts Tool or the Bad Brains).
Only three songs where played on the 27th (Bonin' in the Boneyard, Skankin' to the Beat and Lyin' Ass Bitch), but expectations are building up for the upcoming mini tour in the Bay area and greater LA. (see tour dates section).
FishboneLive.org seizes this opportunity to thank all the exceptional individuals who, these last 25 years, made it possible for Fishbone to live up to the high standards set by the original members, and especially, in no particular order, John Steward (drums), John McKnight, Anthony Brewster, Dre Gipson and Paul Hampton (keys), Jay Armant, Padre Holmes and Curtis Storey (RIP) (horns) and finally, Rocky George and Spacey T (guitars). Familyhood forever.
