StoneMtn Posted January 23, 2006 Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 I don't know where this originates, but it was posted by a reliable friend on another board..."Ooops! Reports of our rebirth are not greatly exaggerated, merely premature. I'm happy to say that Greg and I are working on this, and feeling really good about it. But as of this time, neither venue, date or lineup are carved in stone.It does happen occasionally that gigs are announced before they're confirmed. In this case, it looks like a rough draft of an entire calendar month was printed before the unconfirmed date could be retracted. While this is unfortunate, I believe it's an honest mistake, and I wouldn't want anyone to think that Zero is not moving forward with this long overdue event in a very positive way.Greg Anton and myself, as founding members of Zero, really want to do this right out of respect for our long history of friendship and collaboration, and for Zero music and Zero fans. Please respect our efforts with this workand trust that WE as Zero will announce our intentions when we get it just right. And in the meantime, try to keep your shorts on and please chut up!"-Steve Kimock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rossolee Posted January 23, 2006 Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 Hopefully they'll play a tour not just a run in the Bay area and Chesters! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradm Posted January 23, 2006 Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 I've listened to a bit of Steve Kimock Band (esp. some of the later 2005 shows, which I like, a lot), but I'm unfamiliar with Zero. How is it different from SKB, in terms of sound?Aloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rossolee Posted January 23, 2006 Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 This website is pretty much retired, but it has tons of good info on Zero(histoy,music etc)http://www.zerolive.com/Lots of shows on the Archive..http://www.archive.org/audio/etreelisting-browse.php?collection=etree&cat=Zero Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StoneMtn Posted January 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 (edited) Brad:They are one of the godfather-bands of the scene. They existed while The Grateful Dead were still around, and Robert Hunter wrote songs for them.Check them out. They're on The Archive. They are amazing. EDIT: D'uh ... Rossolee already pointed out they're on The Archive. Edited January 23, 2006 by Guest Head up ass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rossolee Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 Probably not the right spot for this pic... but here is a nice shot of Steve that my friend Brad took in Charlotte on Saturday night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StoneMtn Posted January 31, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 Well, this post is rather cryptic, so I don't even know what city it refers to, but this was posted by that same friend of mine on another board. I'm betting it refers to San Fran, but it looks like a tour is in the works:Pigs do fly! Man I hope this comes up our way!Zero: Chance in a Million Reunion TourMarch 9th, 10th, & 11th$25The band that made Quixote's famous around the world and believed in us when no one else would returns to rock our socks off. If you have never seen this band before then you owe it to yourself to buy some tickets. They have been on indefinite hiatus for the last five years and this will be their first shows back. This band will take your breathe away as you become one with their sound. To hear it is to believe.The lineup:Bobby Vega Martin Fierro Greg Anton Steve Kimock Judge Murphy Chip Roland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StoneMtn Posted February 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 UPDATE (to make matters even less clear): Rumours are still flying wildly around, but so far the line reported earlier is said to be false.The announcement part is true, but the promo people in Denver mistakenly used the old lineup from 2000 and attached that info too.Pete Sears still on piano, and Liam Hanrahan on Bass.Things still may shift though.Tickets are now available at Cervante's in Denver.

jay sanislo Posted February 2, 2006 Report Share Posted February 2, 2006 wonder if we could get these folks up in canada? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rossolee Posted February 2, 2006 Report Share Posted February 2, 2006 Sounds like some Zero shows are a lock. Charlie Miller(Kimocks sound engineer) posted on the kimock-list that the taping policy for Zero would be same as the current SKB taping policies. As for the line-up I'd love to see Bobby Vega back with Steve, but doubt that will happen. Either Chip or Pete is a plus on keys... I always liked that Chip would sing a few songs. As some folks can take or leave Judge Murphys voice. Let hope they make around here, rather than just shows on the West Coast and Colorado. ...and in my best Marteeeeen voice. Chut Up!

StoneMtn Posted February 2, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2006 Ya. Vega and Kimock don't dig each other too much; and those "in the know" really doubt Vega will come out for this.Keep everything crossed and hope, hope, hope...

Cully Posted February 2, 2006 Report Share Posted February 2, 2006 Kimock is a real cock...a great musician, but definately not easy to work with.I would love if this came true...Chance In a Million is one of my favourite songs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StoneMtn Posted February 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2006 Fresh off the Kimock.com homepage:...The show will feature players from the Chance in a Million record- Steve Kimock, Greg Anton, Martin Fierro, Liam Hanrahan, Judge Murphy, Pete Sears and very special guest John Morgan Kimock.(No Vega.)

Rossolee Posted February 3, 2006 Report Share Posted February 3, 2006 Well I assume that if Vega is not available(or willing) to re-unite with Zero... that KVHW is a long shot. I'm glad I was able to catch both before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
