With the 2012 U.S. Revival Tour run finished, we’d like to say it’s been an absolutely incredible tour and we’ve all made it through alive and well. We want to thank our beloved crew for such a pleasurable and memorable tour experience. Your hard work is greatly appreciated and we will look forward to our next run with you!
As far as the players, I’ve been honored to share the stage yet once again in our fifth year with who I believe are some of the best songwriters of our generation. Thank you for the endless inspiration and lessons of the craft called songwriting!
On behalf of the entire Revival Tour staff and crew, we want to thank our dear friends and followers for all of your support! We’ll be looking forward to bringing it back through the U.S. again next year!
As you folks all know, the lineup will always change and surprises will always arise but what has, does and will continue to be consistent, is the camaraderie. The bond that this showcase event has with the players and singers on it as well as the show goers who come to support it is like nothing I’ve ever known in my life and it’s grand to be a piece of the puzzle. We love you all to death and thank you for believing in this movement!
