Crowded House Reforming for a World-wide Tour

By Nick Hodge | January 21, 2007

Not quite sure how I feel about this: Door opens for Crowded House.

Would I go to a con­cert? Yes. Would I buy any new mater­ial recor­ded and released? Yes. Would I think that this is the old Crow­dies? Prob­ably not. You could prob­ably call me a Crowded House fun­da­ment­al­ist, in a way. Any­way, it’s early days and I can be converted.

After fur­ther thought and con­sid­er­a­tion, it’s about the music. Life goes on, and his­tory will never repeat.

    Agreed — is Crowded House the same without Paul? Ulti­mately thats why Neil called it quits right?
    I’d need more details before i’d buy a ticket. Who else is on the bill? Mark Hart? If not then for­get it.. Tim? Well thats prob­ably a given. How bout Eddie Raynor?

    Mark Hart was the key­board­ist in the last 12 months of the Crow­dies, and form­ally joined the band. “The quiet Amer­ican”. For a UK tour, they’d would have to include Tim as the major songs from their major UK album Wood­face are Neil + Tim. US, not so much. Eddie was more of a jour­ney­man key­board­ist @ the beginning.

    I have many thoughts over Paul, his death, and the impact it has had on many people. Best left unsaid, I reckon.

    Neil Finn stated they are “cross all borders”.

    That said, Neil Finn will always be a NZer to me, dude.

    […] A big thankyou to Scot Stein­hardt, Prin­cipal of Mount Gravatt High School. He runs a tight ship, and had a big day yes­ter­day with “big names” arriv­ing from all corners of Aus­tralia to get some of his time.  Thanks, Scot. And live that dream! […]
