August 7, 2000 – With tickets for their October 3 and 4 co-headlining shows at New York City's Madison Square Garden selling out in less than an hour this morning, the Who and Jimmy Page and the Black Crowes have added a third show at the venue due to overwhelming demand. Tickets for the Friday, October 6 show will go on sale Monday, August 14, 9:00 AM, via regular ticket outlets. As previously announced, in an unprecedented move, there will be no admittance into the venue after the 7:30 PM start time sharp (the doors open at 6:00 PM). These special concerts – for which there will be no opening act – are conceived by both acts as a complete musical experience from beginning to end. An onstage collaboration by the Who and Jimmy Page and the Black Crowes at some point in the evening is currently in the talking stages.

Meanwhile, fans across the country are experiencing the power of the Who and Jimmy Page and the Black Crowes – the latter of whom are performing songs by Led Zeppelin and the Black Crowes plus vintage blues numbers – this summer. Although these shows are separate concerts, they are routed in tandem whereby the Who perform either the night before or after Jimmy Page and the Black Crowes take the stage at the same venue. Tickets for these concerts are sold separately, but a discount of $15.00 is offered to fans that purchase lawn tickets for both shows. The upcoming Madison Square Garden concerts will mark the very first time both the Who and Jimmy Page and the Black Crowes are performing at the same concert.
