I was lucky enough to be at the show. It was amazing! I hope they'll play more. I think they are even better then RUSH. I made a LC live mix today of songs I downloaded from the NET and it's really good quality. Words can't describe how great this band is.

the show was amazing!!!!! it was a very special night. i aslo saw the show online at cbgb.com. it's weird, my mind doesn't want to believe that it actually happened last night. the whole experience was so surreal. Cycles was the first song. hopefully I’ll have some reviews of the show at my LC site soon.

AND THE ENCORE WAS A STELLAR "CROSSTOWN TRAFFIC" THANK YOU LIVING COLOUR!! AND THANK YOU TO CBGB'S FOR ALLOWING THE LIVE STREAM. I WISHED I COULD HAVE MADE IT UP THERE.

Vernon, I was about five feet away from you at the show in Austin, Texas(first night). this was my first time to see you live since LC in 1993, so it was a very special night for me. the show was incredible! your new rhythm section is great. Anybody know the name of the drummer and bassist? i’m a drummer myself, and it was totally amazing what he was doing. During his solo it seemed like he was playing some super fast swing beats mix with drum’n bass/jungle beats (very cool). every song was beautifully one. Does anyone know if any of the shows on this tour were recorded? It would be a shame if they weren’t. oh, and I loved they way you had your dreads! They were like tied together in the front. It looked so cool!

I have a friend who interviewed Vernon before his recent tour with John Scofield (about a month ago). He talked about a lot of what he's been up to. Anyone want to know? He talked a bit about LC etc. and his comments could shed a new, if slightly gloomy l ght on the reunion gig.

Sam and Other Vernophiles, I saw the show on sunday at the house of blues. It's been three years since I saw Vernon Reid play, and It's like he hasn't missed a beat In between. The lineup has changed In masque. Leon Gruenbaum of Masque and My Science Project is still kicking strong Due to the absence of world renown clarinetist Don Byron, and Turntabelist DJ Logic, leon has taken on triple duty with the clarinet and triggering samples with the Samchillan tip tip tip chepee. Major Kudos to Leon I don't know how you do it. Masqe has new Rhythm section. The names escape me, but these guys had me mezmorised. The bass player bears an eerie reseblance to Mark Sandman, although he's much funkier. The drummer is Marlon something, I guess he has played with John Scofield. His style is not unlike Ronald Shannon Jackson(he was all over the place). Oh, did I mention Vernon Reid Was in this Band? Man that guy can play the guitar. Mostly revamps of mistaken identity songs, With a little Monk and a mean Watermelon Man. It is a rare treat to see Vernon In Boston from the unnanounced sit in's with Club D'elf and suprise apperances at the Middle East, But he's welcome wherever he may decide to pop up next. -Matt

Ex mple: Living Colour once featured Vocalist D.K. Dyson and keyboardist Geri Allen. Someone who has seen an earlier date or is aware of the lineup please let me know so I can pursuade my friends to blow twenty dollars with an educated description. Thanks, -Matt

Popped on Mistaken Identity for first time in ages - it's great. Got me to thinking how important Living Colour, and specifically Vernon Reid were to me. I always found them very positive, even on Stain, which was very dark. Living Colour live at the Well ngton Town Hall, can't remember the year, is still the greatest rock show I've EVER seen - the way it built, the way they surprised by opening with A Love Supreme and closing with a ballad, the way they gave it their all, to a small crowd at the bottom of the earth. Vernon, If you read this, THANKS.

Hello from Davis, California! Thanks for the great site. I am here because "Mistaken Identity" is the best album I've heard in years! I'm also a big fan of Living Colour, as well as Prince Paul. I would love to see Vernon live in concert. I did see an early Living Colour gig, but they were opening for the Rolling Stones at the "BC Dome" in Vancouver, Canada. The sound was muddy and I was about a mile from the stage, so it pretty much sucked. T en the Stones came on and, lo and behold, the sound was crystal clear. (I hate it when they screw the opening band like that!) Looking forward to checking out this site further, and looking forward to the next album!

Hey Sam, it was cool that you heard some of Vernon's new material. But do you think Vernon may NOT have wanted that stuff heard yet ? Maybe he's ANTI-NAPSTER.

Almost all of 'This Little Room's songs have been floating around in Napster. I have heard 12/13 (all songs but 'The Lost Halo') of the new album and I have to say that TLR is a BIG DISAPPOINTMENT. First of all most of the tracks feature a male vocalist (a singer, there's no rapping at all on this disc). I don't know his name but he sounds a bit like Dean Bowman (formerly Screaming Headless Torsos, Don Byron's 'Nu Blaxploitation' [the latter being one of my absolute favorite records ever in spite of DB's vocals on a couple of tracks]) - which means that h is totally HORRIBLE. He just sounds like a stupid fool, like an average college rock singer - there's very little or no originality present. Not to mention that the lyrics are awful crap (some of them might be written by Vernon though). I was also very disappointed with the album music-wise. Don't get me wrong, there are a couple of great moments which remind of Vernon's status as one of the most original guitar players around: - the intro to 'Afflicted' - the song 'One Of These Days' featuring a female vocalist who is 100 times better than the aforementioned male singer. Makes me wonder why there isn't much more of her on the album? (she seems to be singing backgrounds on other songs too, but the Dean Bowman-soundalike pollutes the album mostly) - the instrumental 'A Foretold Fate' which has a great guitar solo - some parts of the instrumental song 'G...' - ...and finally the absolutely beautiful intro to 'Bright Shinny Things' (last song on the album) which unfortunately dissolves into a completely dull mediocre rock riff song featuring that stupid rocker on the mike once again... Only 3 (or 4 if 'Lost Halo' is instrumental) of TLR's 13 songs are instrumentals. All but one of the rest feature that disgusting singer. So I ask: Where is the MyScienceProjectesque stuff, songs like 'Slow Moving Target'? Why isn't Beans handling the mic bizness? Where are the multitude of guest musicians? Where is Don Byron's jazzy clarinet? This album counts as a big minus for Vernon. I'd say that of former LC members, WILL and DOUG have been continuing with a good style (Headfake, Jungle Funk, all solo albums, Doug's appearance on Moondive (www.vpro.nl/moondive LISTEN TO THE REALAUDIO STREAM OF 1999 SHOW 1 (4th June 1999)), etc.). Whe eas COREY and VERNON have been going all the way down...... Pheww, that was a lot of thought. Go to Napster for a peek of the new album. ANYWAY - for support - I'll buy it and I'll encourage you to so also. Vernon is the most INGENIOUS guitarist alive. But even he does mistakes and releases stuff like this sometimes.

In response to the prepaid cd release idea, It's not a bad idea, but a more realistic one would be for Mr. Vernon Reid to follow the Idea his former Bandmate Corey Glover Realized by releasing an online live MP3 through Emusic to raise funds to Buy back t e recordings he did for sony 550. It's my understanding that this is an expensive task But it would reconnect Vernon's music with the fans that really want to hear it. In the meantime the fans can just take on transcribing the old shit to keep them busy. Matt

I´m argentinian, and I´ve seen Vernon here in Buenos Aires in two straight nights. I´m a old fan of LC, and the solo works of the LC members, but Vernon y simply my favourite musician of this times. And his shows were the greatest thing I had see in the m sic scene in this country. Also I went to a concert of Joe Satriani, one month later than the concerts of Vernon, and I´ve think: "well, is not that good". In fact, Satriani is great, but nothing compares to the music of Vernon, and his awesome band (Marlon Browden in "What´s my name" is unhuman). I hope we can see them in the future. And please, Vernon, RELEASE A NEW ALBUM, PLEASE. Well, that´s all. Excuses for my very ugly english. But that´s how we talk here in the Third World (the ass of the world, we call it).

Re: Vernon's long-awaited CD...when I found out through divers means that DJ Logic had been touring w/VR, I dropped him a note to ask him what he knew. His response: VR's album is done, but Sony dropped him before it could be released. Damn the major la els anyway! A thought (and Vernon, if you're reading this, a proposition): how many of us would be willing to prepay for the CD (say $10-15) to allow Vernon to duplicate and distribute the thing himself? Sign me up! I'm told that Marillion has funded b th albums and a US tour this way, so it seems like a viable option for a band with a strong following. Peace!

The next time you come to Cali, come to Northern Cali, make it for longer than a day, let your fans know, and you can bring you guitar if you like--along with some copies of "This Little Room" (I still haven't found that CD) Belated HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! take care.

Just to let all of you know, there is a recording out called "Incidental Seductions" under my name, Percy Howard, released about 10 months ago on the Italian Label Materiali Sonori. It features as the band Vernon Reid, Trey Gunn, and Charles Hayward. This album could not have been realized w/o Vernon's masterful playing, aesthetic input, experience with arranging, and general good and supportive vibe. It is a bit obscure, but can be ordered from all record stores, and will be availiable as an MP3 album fro e-music in the next several months. Thanks. Percy Howard

I don't know about Corey/Vernon being the reason. It could be true, but I have to hear it from Corey or Vernon first. I do know for a fact that it was Vernon's decision to break the band up. Will confirmed that in a interview, and heard vernon say that in several different articles. But there was some tension.

Why they broke up? After the Stain tour, the band's whole chemestry was being destroyed. Vernon didn't feel the other members the way he wanted too anymore.I believe the Vivid area was the best in his mind,'cause everybody got along so well.lots of fun an all,no seriousness,ego,tention or whatever.During the making of Stain,Corey and Vernon did not get along well..You know,I thing it s just normal,like any relationship...the remain my favorite rock band, although I listen to a lot of jazz and weird stuff ow.Check out Ronald shannon jacksons's live at the Greenwich Village.it features Vernon and Melvin Gibbs in a free-form improvising context..more jazz than rock i'd say.

Dear Vernon, I first saw you play in 1992 in the Student Union at UMASS Amherst several months prior to the release of Living Colour's debut album. Man - you guys blew my fucking brains out on the floor. All my guitar playing friends went home with long faces and talked of suicide for weeks ;) Living Colour was by far my favorite band for years so I was bummed when you guys split up. But... things must move on I suppose. Mistaken Identity is a masterpiece. Out of the 10,000 or so CD's in my collection, I always pull that disc out when people come over and crank it - turning on whoever I can to your work. So... not for nothing man - just a random empirical data point from some dude on the Internet. Your work is regarded as high art in my house. I hope you release some more material soon and get out to Boston to tour again someday. You're missed. - Peace cdr

If anybody is looking for tab for the old Living Colour stuff I found a place called www.sheetmusicplus.com (I put the exact URL in the link up above). Its a "Best of" type collection that has tabs for: Time's Up Desperate People Middle Man Glamour Boys Funny Vibe Pride Leave It Alone Talking Loud and Saying Nothing Cult Of Personality Elvis Is Dead Love Rears Its Ugly Head Type I'd be interested to know if Vernon has done much in the rock/funk/rap vien lately (something I can buy, Mistaken Identity is from 96, I'm hurtin for some Vernon goodness..... :-( ) I wish everybody the best, and hope my info comes in handy for anybod that was looking!!!

Of intrest to Vernophiles: I picked up a copy of living colour's stain album after losing my original copy. To my surprise, three guitar solos were different than my original copy. After finding another copy with the first solos on it. I examined the albu s and linar notes for differences. to my dissapointment there are no differences including the catalog number. I have heard rumors of these alternate solos, but never had the opportunity to hear them. These solos are a reminder to me of what got me inte ested In Vernon in the first place. He plays so spontaneously and manages to make the most obscure sounds come out so musically and naturally. Happy hunting Vernon fans. By the way I'm still trying to find a copy of the currently out of print Japanese im ort Dread. If anyone has a copy to sell, send a message my way. -matt

My Email:nusang1@co.sacramento.ca.us

Comments:
PERCY HOWARD, VERNON REID, TREY GUNN, CHARLES HAYWARD. The above artists will be performing two shows in the San Francisco Bay area and one show in Sacramento during the week of Feb. 22, 1999. The shows will be in support of Howard’s forthcoming release on Materiali Sonori Records FULL CATASTROPHE. The quart t will be at Palookaville in Santa Cruz on Thursday, Feb. 25, The Maritime Hall in San Francisco on Friday, Feb. 26, and at Old Ironsides in Sacramento on Saturday, Feb. 27. Full Catastrophe is an experiment in juxtaposing lyrical, melodic singing with th textures of ambient music, the strength and power of rock, the mystery of improvisation, and the sensuality of groove. It marks the first musical meeting of four musicians that have their feet equally planted in the worlds of avant-garde experimentation nd melodic rock. Be prepared for the music to create an entity of it’s own that will transcend the expectations of those seeking the artist’s individual past creations. Interview and information requests regarding the project can be addressed to Percy How rd via any of the methods on the above letterhead. Vernon Reid is best known as the leader and driving force of the two-times Grammy awarded rock band Living Colour, but his body of work includes far ranging output; from his first appearances in Ronald Shannon Jackson’s Decoding Society in the early 80’s to his recent recording with David Torn and Elliot Sharp for Knitting Factory Works, “Gtr Obliq”. Vernon has been a seminal and influential rock guitarist, historian, and sociologist if you will. The latter two designations given life in his formation of he Black Rock Coalition more than a decade ago with Greg Tate. Reid has collaborated with an impressive array of musicians since the disbanding of Living Colour in 1995, including Don Byron, Bill Frissel, and DJ Spooky. Reid’s last solo release, Mistaken dentity, was an adventurous brew of hip-hop, jazz, rock and textural music. Reid has also been working in the area of theatre and scoring films. Percy Howard is a singer/songwriter/producer/poet who is the leader of the Northern California ambient post-rock band Nûs, who have two releases on the Belgian Label Sub Rosa, All the Vertical Angels, and Inside is The Only Way Out. Percy is currently col aborating on a series of projects with some of the most interesting progressive musicians in the world. In January 1998 he recorded the MERIDIEM project with Bill Laswell, Fred Frith, and Charles Hayward. Meridiem recently performed a series of three successful shows on the West Coast, including a sold-out date this past January 14 at The Great American Music Hall in San Francisco. In addition to the MERIDIEM project, Percy has currently started production work on a recording with Vernon Reid, Trey G nn of King Crimson, and Charles Hayward, which will be recorded in Feb. of 1999. Howard also has projects planned with Bill Reiflin, ex of Ministry and Jarboe (SWANS), and will contribute tracks to Bill Laswell’s next Material project, the hip-hop oriente INTONOMOURI. Howard also is a reader and Poet on the upcoming Sub Rosa release The Hashishsheen, which also features Iggy Pop, Patti Smith, Laswell, ,Techno Animal, and Sussan Deyhim, among others. Howard’s background in singing is a mixture in equal p rts of rigorous classical training and soul, and his stylings have been compared to Nina Simone, Johnny Hartman, and Scott Walker. Charles Hayward is a drummer/percussionist and singer who is best known for his work in the extremely influential English band This Heat. Charles is a much in demand musician who has performed with various musicians, from Heiner Goebbels to Everything Bu The Girl. Hayward is a musicians musician, recognized by many as one of the most brilliant rock drummers breathing. Hayward recently collaborated with Frith and Laswell on the latest incarnation of MASSACRE. Trey Gunn is the Warr guitarist in the current incarnation of King Crimson and it’s “fracktals” Projeckt 2 with Robert Fripp and Adrian Belew, and Projeckt 4 with Pat Mastelotto, Robert Fripp, and Tony Levin. A native Texan, Gunn now resides in the Pacif c Northwest He began his musical life at the age of 7 playing classical piano. His interest in music grew through various instruments -- electric bass, electric and acoustic guitar, keyboards, and now the touchstyle guitar. He has toured and recorded with many modern day masters in their fields -- Robert Fripp, David Sylvian, Michael Brook, John Paul Jones and Toni Childs. He is currently a member of the most unusual band of rock history -- King Crimson. For his role in this configuration of the group (an unusual "double-trio" line-up with two full rhythm sections) Gunn has helped evolve a new and unique instrument. Designed and built by Mark Warr of Warr Guitars this instrument is an 8-string guitar with the range of a piano. It can be heard, in depth, on his recently completed 2nd solo album "The Third Star" on Discipline Records. WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT MERIDIEM AND PERCY HOWARD: “Truly a transcendent experience” Alternative Press “A wonderfully judged project, showing how adventurous minds can reinvigorate popular idioms” The Wire “The rhythm tracks and ambient settings this trio creates for Howard’s songs is among the best music I’ve heard any of them make of late” MOTION “Whether Howard’s voice and songs are seething or soothing is a matter of interpretation. But that’s part of the indefinable charm of MERIDIEM. It goes where you’re willing to take it” Innerviews “A wide-ranging prog-fusion suite” MAGNET “Meridiem is above all a great collaborative effort, and no matter how powerful each of the musician’s performances are individually, the final result is greater than the sum of these individual parts.” LAST SIGH “A dark and brooding album. Highly rhythmic (but is that a surprise given the presence of Bill Laswell and Charles Hayward), it’s swells are peppered with the atmospheric guitarwork of Fred Frith. Over it all Percy Howard’s deep and evocative voice floats like a lifeboat at sea” The Ectophile’s guide to good music “American Percy howard sings beautifully, and writes words and music...with a little help from his friends......Sam and Dave on Acid. Rubberneck (UK) “Percy Howard sang with a voice that was almost incandescent. You did’nt know whether to trance or dance to it. The Santa Cruz audience, which boogies to almost anything, sat mesmerized” San Jose Mercury News

Once in my younger years. I met Vernon at Ralph's in Worcester, MA. I was so exited to meet him and to converse with my hero. I was absolutely starstruck. At some point I said, "Man, I would cut off my left nut and sew it to my forehead to jam with you". He put his hand over his face and said "Ehwww, Don't do that" I just thought I'd share that with the fans that would probably do the same for such an inspirational artist.

It was TYPE. I found it nice. But the second time I Heard it i was in love. I didn't have any CD's so i bought the 1st one: LIVING COLOUR - Biscuits ( by the way, who is Virginia, the name on the cover?) I was going on a vacation with my parents to a recreation park with bungalows. I made a copy of the album on a tape and i brought a cassette- player with me A week long i heard the tape, over and over. With this beautifull cover from Hendrix -Burning of the midnight lampThe Cool and FrEaky Money Talks -love and happiness -memories can't wait I really like your sound of guitar playing That unpredictabel sound you bring. I've heard many guitarist play, but you are something. After the vacation I bought all your records. Even all your Bootlegs. And I liked em all. One thing I still regret is that I never saw Living Colour LIVE. So that is way I used the coverhead from Vivid the head with the red beams for a tattoo. The beams means what your mind does when you hear living colour live. It came on my shoulder. I was in the Noorderlight in TILBURG on 16-10-1998 and I saw you live for the second time(1st time Paradiso, Amsterdam) and it was great. We shoke hands and I don't know what I said but I like your guitarplaying man I was there with my girlfriend, but we broke up today ( 1-2-99 Sunday ) I have to make music, she took too much time.

Vernon...my thanks to you for your ongoing inspiration. I have followed your music since the beginning. I was 14 when I was first introduced and now ten years later I listen to all music with a much more open heart. The one thing I learned from you, is how to listen deeply to a song. Most of your music for me has aged like fine wine, getting better with every listen. Thanks for the education and enjoyment I have gotten from all your music. I am a musician myself, and just completed my degree at Colum ia....thank you from my heart.

Those of us who live in New York City are truly lucky to live in the town where VR lives and performs. Guitar Oblique (GTR OBLQ) played last month on the 18th at the Knitting Factory. This is Venon's collaboration with David Torn and Elliot Sharp. The music is abstract-avant wacky, compelling if you're into that sort of thing. They have a cd out now rec rded live from two previous GTR OBLQ gigs recorded earlier in '98. You can order it thru the web at knittingfactory.com. A weird thing happened during the second set- one of Vernon's amp heads, which was sitting on a spkr cab. and which had a nearly ful 6-rak of guitars on it, came crashing down just behind his back. those of us sitting right up front thought for a second that the contents of the stage were going to crash down upon us! V was ok, and after inspecting the instruments and electronics for amage and checking connections, the set resumed. Strange nite... Also all last month V curated the music at a place called Tonic. His performance there on 12-19 was just incredible. two sets. The first was mellow, with Vernon playing both acoustic and electric guitar, as well as the flute (on the Starr guitar). He p ayed with Larajee (sp?), an electric autoharpist, Don Byron, and a few others. Truly amazing stuff. Then for the second set, he had a full electric band, basically the same instrumentation as Mistaken Identity minus Leon on the Samchillian. This set smo ed! They even played "What's My Name", a great tune I hadn't seen him play before. Overall, a well balanced and excellent nite of VR music. Ethan

I just got my own copy of GTR OBLIQUe with Vernon,Elliot# and David Torn.The 7 pieces are very weird and difficult to litlen at but I will make the effort and try to appreciate by listening it as often as I can. It sure is interresting to hear a guitar tr o that seems to comme from the year 2200! It's very far from the usual sound of the electric guitar.All in all I'm glad I bought it and I m also glad I have MUTATIONS from BECK 'cause It's a fine recording!I'd like to once again thank Carl de Souza for ke ping this site alive and I have a question:vernon thanks Eric in the gtr oblique sleeves...is he talking about me??

Greetings from Australia. I was at all of your Sydney concerts and especially loved it when you dumped the guitar and dove into the crowd. You have influenced my guitar playing, something that I really appreciate. Keep being a role model for those who need to look up to someone. C me visit us again sometime soon. Ken.

I am afraid that if he ever comes to play in Australia agian that I will miss ou and to be honest musicians as passionate as Mr Reid don't come around too often...... I will always treasure the guitar pick he handed me at the Melbourne concert on the Stained tour, not for the material momento, but the memories that I had that nigh of sheer listening pleasure.

I don't know what's wrong with the state I'm living in but somehow all the progressive bands that i enjoy seem to always skip the Utah area on their tours. when the hell are you going to be here again Vernon? My very first concert experience was Living Co our at the fairgrounds with Primus opening, it was the most impressed and inspired I ever have been. New York may be the capital of progressive music, but why can't these shows at least make a sojourn to the west once in awhile? "give me a sign" that the usic of Vernon Reid still exists.

Re: Bottom Line Show Also, I know at least 1 DAT exists, as the soundman handed Vernon a copy at the end of Saturday's 1st show.

I made all of the (4) shows. In addition to what Mr. Boynton has said, they also played a version of Billy Cobham's Stratus, and concluded each night's final set with Will doing a drum solo with all 3 playing over the strings from the Verve's Unfinished Symphony". They also played a version of "White Lines". The song "Trance" referred to below is usually played by Will and Doug when they perform as Headfake or Jungle Funk with Vinx. They also played a version of Public Enemy's Timebomb with parts from A Tribe Called Quest's Electric Relaxation. There was also a Headfake/Jungle Funk song that I think is called Worship that they played an instrumental version of.....

Oh yeah, They played CP Time, The Projects, Lightnin,and Saint Cobain. The running joke was that Vernon didn't have the Nelson Mandella sample so he had to sing "You're Gonna miss me when I'm gone. It was Great to hear Doug and Will's interpretation of t e songs. There was also what seemed to be a new song. I heard Will and Doug do it with Jungle Funk, but it wasn't on the Record, so it's hard to tell without asking who's song it is. I think the lyrics were I trance my own reality. Hey, It's all good.

Hey, I saw that show! as a matter of fact, I saw and heard Vernon three nights in a row. That man can certainly play the guitar. On thursday He played at Central park summer stage with Tracy Morris. The piece that really stuck with me was something to d with love. Tracy said there was mutiny on the stage because Vernon wanted to play it before it's scheduled order. I don't know what it was called, but the chords just gave the words life. In other news I saw three of the four sets of Vernon Will and Dou . Someone next to me recorded the first set of the second night, but I'll bet Will's got some DAT's from the Board as He's apparently done with each Jungle Funk show. As for the performance, They played Incredibly. I was shocked to hear GO Away. Vernon played all the vocal parts on the Guitar. Will played some Wavedrum. Doug gave us some Old Skool funk. I'm still dazed from the whole experience, so I Can't say much ore. Ask me later when I've had time to collect the whole Vibe. -Matt

I couldn't agree more with that last message. Living Colour in many ways were the next big step in rock n' roll and music as a whole. But its a tragidy and a shame that even though they took rock to a whole new level of musicality, most of thier music and what they achived was and still is ignored be the mainstream, and the music world in general. This is one of the points I try to get across with my Living Colour Site.

Two things: I found Time Tunnel in a bin at a record store the other day for $2.00. Part of me was sad that it had come to that. However, I bought it because I didn't own it and hadn't been able to find it anywhere. It inspired me once again. I've watched it twic and am in the middle of the third time. (does that mean I have no life?) Anyway, I've said it before, Living Colour was the next step in rock and roll and the rest of 'em just haven't caught up yet. But when they do, they are going to feel really stup d for not giving props where they belonged. The second thing is, if anyone is in the Phoenix area, give me a call. (information has the number) I'd love to talk about the band, or Vernon or Corey's new stuff or just about music in general. As I watched Time Tunnel I realized that the reason L.C. wasn't accepted more than they were, was because it was about the music and the message and not image and most people have a big problem with the truth.

hi IF YOU GIVE A DAMN...... I just saw Mr. Glover and the band tonight in Minneapolis at First Ave. Very few people showed up (Pearl Jam was playing at an arena across the street) but Prince's drummer was in the sparse crowd. The set: Sermon, Middle Man, Little Girl(?), Wade in the Water (cover of Staples Singers), April Rain, Sidewalk Angel, Things Are Getting in the Way (?), The Joker (a cover of Steve Miller Band), Love Rears Its Ugly Head, Do You First, Then Do Myself and Cult of Personality. During Wade in the Water, Corey dropped the mike, jumped off stage and sang like that for a few minutes. He has a powerful voice. ALso during love rears its ugly head, he jumped off stage with the vocal mike, ordered a water from the bar and took pictures with people in the crowd. His voice is still really strong. He said he was mad about the local radio station asking for an autograph and then saying they were going to Pearl Jam. His band is so-so. The drummer was the best musician by far. The bassist was pretty good. The guitar player seemed lost. I've heard him play acoustic and he is talented but he seemed to get lost during his solos. Sort of puttering around. Though they put ut a good show, really worked hard despite the handful of people. I met him afterward and he was real nice. The whole band was as well. I hope that he finds happiness in his new career.

Vernon, if you are out there I would like to say 'Thank you-truly- from the bottom of my heart.' As a young black kid who really didn't want to be trapped in the confines of R&B and soul (although I did love them), you and LC, Prince, Jimi Hendrix, J.P. Bourelly, to name but a few, showed me there was more. And you stood at the forefront. Because of Hendrix I started to play and accept different music. Because of you I tried to find my own voice and forget certain notions of how music should be played. Also, how everyone should perceive black artists(JUST LIKE ANYBODY ELSE!!!) If being a fan means trying to emulate, respect, be as articulate as, and most importantly, being inspired to move on with what you've taught, then consider me the greates fan. Thank you. The two greatest moments in my life are the birth of my daughter and meeting you, Will, and Doug in Frankfurt, Ge during the STAIN tour. You won't remember it, but I will. And I just missed your show in Aschaffenburg last year!!! Well I'm waiting for more music and you to do some more shows in Germany and the rest of Europe. Peace from an American Lost In Germany!!!!

Hello... 1) Anyone know when to expect another CD from Vernon since his solo Masque CD? I need more! 2) Anyone have any Vernon tapes to trade? I have a good Masque one and would love more. Not looking for anymore LC stuff though. Later

Hi Living Colour fans! I'm glad I'm not the only one. It's great to see this site. I have all LC albums and I can't get enough. I have many live recordings of LC for trade and would love to hear from anyone else who does. Also looking for any Vernon stuff as well. Let's hope for a reunion from one of the best bands ever!

cool birthday - i got a real special, weird, cool tough CD --> Mistaken identity!! We`ve seen Vernon last year in Stainach (AUSTRIA) "My sience project" was the best concert of the year 1997! Now, more than half a year after that, we found the CD, and got the same great vibe as last year. We`re looking forward to see VERNON again, soon!! Special greetings from AUSTRIA, EUROPE go to Vernon, Leon Gruenbaum and Beans!!!!!

It's been a long time since I have kept up with Vernon at all. I feel kinda weird. I was around him a lot and have a different perspective of his amazing talent. He was not "a talent" when I was around. He was one of four brothers trying to figure out how to be with all that their stardom was bringing, good and bad. I will always love him like a big brother.

Hmmm... I had a dream last night with Vernon Reid in it, but he was shorter and chubbier than I imagined, and he was wearing a huge t-shirt splattered with paint (like his outfit in the CoPersonality video, except a t-shirt) He was playing under an overpa s in the city, as a guitarist in a new project with Chuck D, after the show (it was low volume, like a bunch of friends listening) he nods and says "Hey Ben" I smile and go home....

For all you Mistaken Identity fans and freaks, V's set at the Cooler in NYC on 12/26/97 was amazing! Beans wasn't there (so Signed Ficticious wasn't attempted, but there was a nice freeform style poetry from (I think) Tracy Morris. It was a quartet (guitar+, drums/percussion, DJ, and samchillian tip tip tip cheee peee). I think an electric bass would r und out the sound a little, but this is V's conception (and its great just the way it is), and L.G. anchors the low end nicely on his invention. Gruenbaum played a really cool solo set on the samchillian before the band went on. There was really trippy stuff played, my favorite of which opened the show. It was an intense meditation/fireworks display of the Titanic disaster. Just wish I could have seen the Fall gigs in Europe...

Wow! You can't know how I am glad and happy to write you something! Vernon, you must know that you are my inspiration since I play electric guitar. When I had my first one I began to play all your songs from Living Colour. Meanwhile I was really bad but did not give up and I strove to acheive them. At last I'm able to play some of them. Therefore I'm a big fan since many years. I guest you can reach those guitar's gods such as: Jimi Hendrix, Clapton and whatever. You're simply one of the best. The end of Living Colour was a dissapointing moment for me but with your solo project I think that your knack for the guitar is still here. Keep on making such good and wicked music! By the way you should come in concert more often! Bravo! Excellent! Tu es le meilleur! From a cranky fan: Pierre-Yves Durocher and the Salsa and Fuc*** Nachos. Bye!

Why don`t you publish a book about your playing - I would love to check out them mystirios licks, phrazes and technics you are using...f.x. the shred "ffrreeyjdoppdsanjkshdisghushbjgshb" sound that you`re the only guitarist I´ve ever heard anybody play(you used it in the Information Overload solo in "time´s up" and in a lot of other songs). So...i´m looking forward to the "Vernon Reid Ambience Guitar Method" or something like that!! And fer God sake, Vernon...Come to Denmark and play some gigs...

Yo music people, I saw Vernon play on the 14th of october 1997 in tivoly(Holland). By the number of poeple in the place I conclude that I belong to his most loyal fans in Holland. What frustrated the hell out of me was the way he acted on stage. He was just totaly two fac d, on one hand it seemed as if he wanted the crowd to get into his thing but on the other hand he was doing this "I'm to wierd for you guys to understand' type thing. So Vernon if you read this, I just want to know what's with all that stuff man.

Vernon is the best guitarist ever! I was never even really in to music untill I heard Living Colour. It is still one of the only bands that I will listen to. Is this Vernon's Official Site? When is his next album coming out?

Vernon and John Frusciante are the only guitarists you can call in one sentence with Jimi, most other don't even have the rights to be in the same story. I saw Vernon at 16-10-'97 in Hellendoorn, Vernon ruled, he's the best guitarist I'v ever seen Live on stage. I think that the ultimate dreamgig would be a Jam from Vernon with the Urban Dance Squad, because DNA is Back, and he 's FAT!!!!!!

This is a cool site, but it should be somewhere else than in GeoCities, because it's so slow. BTW. does anyone know a WWW site for Jungle Funk, the band which features ex-Living Colour members D. Wimbish and W. Calhoun? I saw them live two weeks ago and they were great.

Very cool page, keep up the great work. Any info on Vernons gear? I have a couple of articles from various guitar mags if you're interested. I'm teaching myself html, so it may be easier for me to send them to you as text files. Lates, Robert

It is me again,Vernon was once in the Basque Country(San Sebastian,June of 1993) with Living Colour, and I could not see them. If somebody knows him, please tell him to come again.

Vernon is too good for me to even try to describe. I live right next to NYC, and alot of times I miss his infrequent appearances, becasue I never hear about them. (Like the one this past Monday.) I keep a fairly accurate discography on Vernon, which hop fully soon I will have on the web. Cheers.

This site is great (It's the best I've ever seen). Vernon is a legend and Living Colour was (and hopefully will be again) the greatest band around.

Great site. Anyone know if Vernon is working on anything new? Mistaken Identity was incredible. I guess he just played in Providence, RI but I missed it because I didn't know about it. Where can we find tour dates from him? Later

Good site. Whatever happened to Vernon Reid? It's as if he doesn't exist anymore. Maybe he should become the sixth Spice Girl, or the fourth member of Hanson. That appears to be all that matters in music anymore. Talent is secondary to marketing. guess that is music today. I am curious about what happened to Muzz Skillings, Doug Wimbash and Corey Glover? If anyone knows anything, drop me an e-mail. Thanks for keeping the spirit of Living Colour alive. Great music should be shared, hopefully i will never die.

Hi, Big Living Colour from Kansas City. They were my first band I really followed. Saw them live at the first Lallaploza.

Vernon will be appearing on Monday, September 22, at the Knitting Factory in NYC as part of Digital Slam, a digital simulcast. He'll be linked with Marque Gilmore, who will provide drums, samples, and drum 'n' bass breaks in London. The show starts at 7p (in New York) and admission is $6.
