The Black Crowes Live Performance of 'Sting Me' at Shepherd's Bush Empire

Venue: Shepherd's Bush Empire Location: London, England, United Kingdom Date: March 18, 2006

On March 18, 2006, during a vibrant performance at the Shepherd's Bush Empire in London, The Black Crowes were riding high on the wave of their reunion after an extended hiatus. Leading up to this live recording, the band released 'Lions' in 2001, which was their first studio album in six years. It showcased a slight departure from their classic Southern rock sound, incorporating more of a jam-band ethos. Fans at the London show were treated to a mix of new tunes and their timeless hits, with 'Sting Me' being a standout. Interestingly, this performance came right after the band had agreed to a series of tour dates, signaling their re-commitment to live performances and solidifying their legacy in rock history. Their chemistry on stage was palpable, a reminder of why they became icons in the industry.
