Zint Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/black-flag-reunites-for-album-live-dates-20130128By Greg PratoJanuary 28, 2013 4:00 PM ET Black Flag founder Greg Ginn has re-formed a version of the iconic hardcore group for a new album and a handful of live shows. He's not the only one: former Black Flag members Keith Morris, Chuck Dukowski and Bill Stevenson are also touring, as Flag, with former Descendants member Stephen Egerton.Ginn's band, according to a statement, is "putting finishing touches on a new album" with singer Ron Reyes, drummer Gregory Moore and bassist Dale Nixon, a pseudonym for Ginn. It's unclear who will play bass when the band performs live. Gigs so far include headline slots May 18th at the Ruhrpott Rodeo in Germany; August 4th at Hevy Fest in the U.K.; and August 31st at the Muddy Roots Music Festival in Tennessee.

The Matinator Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 (edited) I am psyched about this, but two black flags? that's kinda ridiculous. although it's cool that you can see them with Keith & Ron.

Christinith Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 I'm pretty excited about this, although I wish Kira was involved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalsh327 Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 (edited) Great news for the "First Four Years" fans.Henry will probably give a diplomatic response and support both because he had been a fan of theirs before he was ever in the band.Kira's doing fine, but I think she'd rather see Greg patch things up with everyone including Pettibon.

Zint Posted January 29, 2013 Author Share Posted January 29, 2013 I saw the '82 and '84 line ups.Hope I get a chance to see this line up.Having experienced the brutal force of this band live, these shows are going to fuckin rip, (Greg Ginn will see to that).I hope they add more dates.

jman2000 Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 The Damned?! I don't really follow punk rock stuff but do listen to some of it. I didn't even know The Damned still toured. That'd be cool to see them live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
