A lot has been going on with Jack Russell's incarnation of Great White this week.
First they had to reschedule their first show of the High Seas Tour, posting this message on Facebook:
Due to circumstances beyond their control, the Jack Russell's Great White show at Jannus Live is being rescheduled for this coming summer. This has nothing to do with Jack's health or abililty to perform, or any other member of the band. The HIGH SEAS WORLD TOUR is set to begin this Saturday in Sanford Fl and the rest of the dates are as previously announced. We will soon be announcing the first few dates of the AMERICA ROCKS TOUR as well. Jack and the band are ready to hit the road, and as seen in the videos already released on Youtube, Jack is healthy and in great spirits, and the whole band is ready to bring you a GREAT Great White show!
Apparently that got tongues wagging and rumors flowing because he posted this 13 hours later:
I have been reading a lot of posts about the recent Jannus Live gig. First of all, you people making these statements are MORONS. If you knew the truth you would keep your mouths shut, it makes you look unintelligent at best. We had nothing to do with this, the promoter wanted to change the date to summer for his own reasons. This, of course, was a letdown to us all but "it is what it is". We will now start the tour in Sanford Fl. two nights later. I realize my former band mates have a few fans, and some of them want to try and make me look bad. GOOD LUCK! Don't you understand that Jack is the only one that can make Jack look bad. I’ve been doing this longer than some of you have been alive and God has brought me back from the gates of insanity and death and has given me one more chance to do what he put me here to do. Nobody, not you haters or anyone else is going to stop me! I AM sober and my health IS great, so why don't you just go watch your other band while you still can and stop being haters if possible. Maybe you should come check out a show, you might like it. I have always encouraged my fans to go see both bands, I'm not scared. Love Captain Jack
Pretty good at coming back and addressing the rumors. It looks like everything's under control and they're ready to rock though. Jack posted this graphic announcing the America Rocks tour with Faster Pussycat, Bulletboys, Pretty Boy Floyd and Lillian Axe. Sounds like a great 80s night. No dates have been announced yet, but they are forthcoming.
On a lighter note, bass player Dario Seixas lost his luggage leading to this amusing set of photos.
Sadly, he was reunited with his luggage and clothes, to the disappointment of all the women who were planning to go to that show.
