Rehearsals began yesterday for the Europe Tour.

Chris Dave - Drums

Pino - Bass

Jesse Johnson - Guitar

D'Angelo - Rhodes

Sort of explains his early exit from the reformation of The Time.

Off the scale!

maybe the the time wasnt making any quick touring decisions and jesse was ready 2 get on the road cuz i cant see y he would leave a group he helped make sucessful 4 one that is basically like being in prince band its all about dangelo not jesse.may they use the same table to snort their cocaine

Please let there be recorded rehearsals, oh please please please

WHAT!!!!???? Jessie isn't with the Original 7ven anymore? When did this happen? Guess I'm late.

But with the new news at hand, like Harlepolis said, WE NEED THOSE REHEARSALS TO BE RECORDED PLEASE!!!!!

That's great news for D! I wonder what happened to the promotional tour w/The Original 7ven? Has anyone seen any tour dates for them?

I really think this is what happened.Jesse got restless and wants to get out there and do a full,complete tour NOW! The Original 7ven have said that they're gonna tour this year,but so far it's just been a few select dates and TV performances.To add to the confusion,Morris is continuing to do dates with the 'other' Time band.Maybe Jesse simply wanted a 'sure' thing?

If I remember, they said that they were going to tour late Spring/Summer 2012. Morris still has shows lined up with "Morris Day and the Time." So conceiveably, D'Angelo may be off tour by then and Jessie may return. That is if he is even interested.

If D'angelo's UK run is short, that scenario is doable. I wouldn't mind seeing him doing both shows. Call me greedy.

Side Note: If Prince is being such an asshole about the use of the name, "The Time" why would he allow Morris to include it on his side gigs as, "Morris Day and The Time"?

That is a nice set of talent.

Best I can figure is that Morris never tried to record using that name.

This is the greatest news I've heard in a loooooong time!!!

I was hoping for this rumour to be true.Now I get to see this amazing band in a few weeks in Denmark!)

looking at t he performances since they been back 2gether jesse didnt seem 2 b in2 it. most of the time he didnt have a mic or didnt do any dance moves with the band.i think they should of really thought all this through before reuniting and now jesse leaving could this be y prince didnt wanna be involved maybe he saw the issues ?? if there any even any.im more of a fan of the time im not a jesse johnson solo artist fan if he not with the group i could care less

If true, this is great news.

Jesse has officially left The 07. The other members silence speak volumes. I would not miss this tour 4 the world these are some of my all time favorites......

There's a Morris Day & The Time gig @ BB kings in NYC for July 2012. There was some vague tweet from the O7 about January 7th @ 7pm. So we wait...

I just need to hear the new single from this upcoming album.Then I'll feel comfortable

I'm trusting that there is some enterprising engineer involved with the rehearsals

who will record them just in case something happens and the tour/album manages

to not materialize.

I know I would.

There's mention of a D'angelo track being played tonight on this thread.

Thanks, hope I remember to check it out.

After 11.5 years we should at least get a double album. but I'll take what I can get:-)

No single needed here. The fact that Pino is back and Chris Dave is there speaks volumes. Those cats could play with anyone of their choosing.

Jesse made a musician's decision, one that could really pay off for him. Hope it does.

I agree.

i don`t know for sure, but most likely it will be the track "blackhole sun"

(a cover of the tune by soundgarden).

it leaked a while ago, but created a lot of buzz the past days. it was recorded

in 2003 at d´angelo´s house. i heard it`s NOT on the new album, but we`ll see

if that is true. you`ll find this song on youtube.

WOW!!!!!! Can't wait 2 hear it!!!!!!!
