Pearl Jam, Kid Rock, Aerosmith Members Join Hendrix Tour
By: Don Kaye
Pearl Jam guitarist Mike McCready, Aerosmith axeman Brad Whitford and Kid Rock guitar player Kenny Olson have all signed on for guest appearances on the Experience Hendrix Tour, a 19-stop trek paying homage to the music and legacy of Jimi Hendrix. The traveling show, which launches on October 14th in New Hampshire, will also include performances by Jonny Lang, Buddy Guy, Eric Johnson, Jimi Hendrix Experience members Billy Cox and Mitch Mitchell, members of the Doors and many others.
Cox told Rolling Stone, "Nothing can compare to playing with the original master. But this tour is helping to validate the musical genius that I knew, by bringing Jimi Hendrix into the new millennium."
The tour is presented by Experience Hendrix, the Hendrix family-owned company founded by Jimi's father, James A. "Al" Hendrix. Artists will perform both Hendrix songs as well as music either covered by or associated with the legendary guitarist.
