Hi Easyrider
THere are a few of us in PNW (I'm in Crescent Beach / White Rock just across the U.S. border in Canada).
As far as a north america tour -don't hold your breath.
Have you ever managed to see Chris live ?
Welcome

Hi Jim,
Yeah you are not too far away - I've been to White Rock a couple of times on my way back from Vancouver. Nice little place. Interesting to learn, from one of your posts, that Paul Rodgers lives up that way. He was down here a while back playing at one of the tribal casinos. I wonder if he did his version of "Stone?"

I have not seen Chris live, but my wife caught him in Vienna last year while she was there on a business trip. Of course it was awesome - no goofing around, just solid music for about two hours, says she. I am still hoping he will appear somewhere in N. America sometime - the bluesy stuff, like on Stony Road and Blue Jukebox, would work really well in a smaller, club-like venue, but I doubt if those types of places could afford him.
The next tour he does it might just be MY turn to fly across the Atlantic and catch a show or two.

Cheers
