CREAM PLAN FURTHER REUNION DATES
Rock trio CREAM are set to reform again for a handful of city concerts, according to bassist and singer JACK BRUCE.
It will be the first time the SUNSHINE OF YOUR LOVE band has toured together since their bitter break-up in 1968, although they played some brief reunion dates in London and New York City last year (05).
After those concerts, Cream's publicist KRISTEN FOSTER insisted, "The band has no plans for the future."
But Bruce now maintains that he, guitarist ERIC CLAPTON and drummer GINGER BAKER are in talks to perform a limited number of city dates.
He says, "What we feel is that it's so special, and also so emotionally draining that it's not something we could do every day.
"We will play more, but where and when I'm not at liberty to say."
Bruce, 62, made the announcement ahead of tonight's (08FEB06) Grammy Awards, where the revered trio are due to pick up a Lifetime Achievement Award.

Hopefully one of the designated multi nights stops will be in the L.A area. I heard at MSG for expensive and as "sold out" as the gigs were, secondary market costs started going for way below face in the days leading up to the gigs. (I cant think of any band right now I would spend more than $50-60 to see, including Cream). |

Dang.
We just got rid of Pink Floyd, but we gained a reunited Cream.
Just can't seem to get ahead.
Cream is good music to take a nap to.... |
