We’re nearing the Christmas season and yet no announcement’s been made…
Finally, unofficial word’s starting to trickle out about the 18th Annual Warren Haynes Christmas Jam. Bluestraveler.net reports:
“…flyers handed out at a recent Gov’t Mule show in Greensboro, North Carolina state that the John Popper Project would be part of the lineup for the 18th Annual Warren Haynes Christmas Jam. According to the flyers, the X-Mas Jam will also feature Audley Freed; Col.

In other words, he’s come a long way from the panicked and uptight figure that had to seek medical help in the past.
I guess the fans have been on their best behaviour…it now appears as if Genesis will indeed announce details about its “Turn It On Again” tour tomorrow.
Check the official Genesis website for details on how to tune into the webcast of the 12 pm GMT press conference. But are you really going to wake up at 7 am just to hear Phil Collins announce the band’s kinda back together?
