As the Stones celebrate their 50th anniversary this year, the band is considering doing some sort of tour next year. As we eagerly await news of the band hitting the road again, the Rock Art Show will celebrate the Stones legendary tours of the 70′s with an incredible special on four different limited edition Rolling Stones Tour Art prints. http://store.rockartshow.com/products/Set_of_4_Rolling_Stones_Tour_Art_Lithographs-547-0.html

I’m going back on the road with Ringo this summer. I’ll be set up at about a dozen Ringo Starr concerts during the upcoming tour (mostly in the Northeast and Northwest). I’ll be selling very limited hand signed artwork from Ringo. All of Ringo’s proceeds from the sale of the art goes to the Lotus Foundation. As with his previous tour, I will blog from the road and let people know what it’s like to be part of Ringo’s tour. The photo is an example of Ringo’s new art….it’s awesome.

Our thoughts are with Levon Helm, legendary drummer for the Band as he enters the final stages with his battle with cancer. Levon’s wife and daughter posted on his website, “Please send your prayers and love to him as he makes his way though this part of his journey.”
On a personal level, I was honored to have worked with Levon in 1990 as the Band performed a free concert in a South Jersey park for the radio station where I worked at the time. It was a phenomenal performance. One I’ll always remember. Levon went out of his way to pose for photos with the radio staff and greet all of our “VIPs” – A
