Sly Stone Performance Turns Into Tour
We got it wrong when we recently reported that Sly Stone had scheduled a rare live performance. Make that performances, as it turns out Sly's show at the Opera House in Bournemouth, England will actually be the last of a nine-date European tour with the Family Stone.Most of the band's shows are at festivals, but there is a club date in Paris in addition to the one in Bournemouth. The tour begins July 12 in Perugia, Italy.
Thanks very much to Scott from Portland for the tip.
