Norwood Fisher talking about a joint tour. Anyway, Goldmine recently chatted up Fisher about the new record and his thoughts on Sly And The Family Stone, Parliament-Funkadelic, Jimi Hendrix and Tom Waits, of all people, for a feature story on the band that will appear in a future issue.
One of the interesting things Fisher touched on was a desire to have Fishbone tour with two of its contemporaries: the godfathers of reggae-punk, Bad Brains, and Living Colour — considering that both bands have either mounted comebacks or are plotting returns as we speak. Fisher hinted at the possibility that Living Colour would come out with a new album next year. And Bad Brains, the band that perhaps unleashed the most fury of any American punk act ever, have a new disc titled Build A Nation due out June 26 that's produced by none other than the Beastie Boys Adam "MCA" Yauch. "We've been talking about it for years," said Fisher. "Maybe 2008 is the time it becomes reality." People, let's make this thing happen. Write your congressman, do a petition drive, sell your blood for money ... do whatever it takes to get these three bands together. That would be one of the hottest concert tours ever. From Tuesday, June 05, 2007 Fishbone, Bad Brains and Living Colour? Make it happen Posted by Peter Lindbald's online colum WORLD'S FORGOTTEN BOY test | |

I'd go see that tour in a second!
I'm guessing Living Colour would headline? | |

I think a case can be made to add 24-7 Spyz to the lineup.  test | |

Jimi Hazel said late last year he's been talking with Vernon about both their bands (with King's X) doing a triple tour. That would be amazing. I think all the bands should tour and do their own festival. It would be great. | |

Any combination of Fishbone, Bad Brains, Living Colour, King's X, 24-7 Spyz would be amazing! 
I thought LC was suppose to do some shows with The Roots and/or Public Enemy some time ago. Does anyone know if that ever happened? Acutally Fishbone and KIng's X were togther in my neck of the woods (Indiana) some years back but I couldn't go. 
Here's to the Future! Fantasy is reality in the world today. But I'll keep hangin in there, that is the only way. | |

Here's to the Future! The Roots thing only got as far as Vernon sitting on a few dates. I heard the rumor of joint tour, but didn't give it too much credence. They did a date in Boston with PE (IMO, the "Flava of Luv" PR demands tended to overshadow both PE and LC. The FB/KX tour went coast-to-coast and I cauhght the LA gigs. They actually flipflopped headliners, but both sets were the same duration. test | |
