Happy Birthday to Peter Frampton, who turns 72 today (April 22nd)!!! Frampton is making good on returning to Europe — with three new UK dates newly announced. Back in October 2019 Frampton wrapped an exhaustive North American trek after being forced to slowly quit the road upon discovering he's suffering from a degenerative muscle disease called Inclusion-Body Myositus (IBM), that slowly weakens the body's muscles.
Frampton was set to play his final shows across Europe with a full scale tour during the spring of 2020 — until the pandemic sidelined his plans. As it stands now, eight shows are now on the books, with the Grammy-winning guitarist hitting England, Scotland, Belgium, Germany, France, and The Netherlands.
2021's Frampton Forgets The Words features new takes on Radiohead's “Reckoner,” George Harrison's “Isn't It A Pity,” Lenny Kravitz' “Are You Gonna Go My Way?,” Roxy Music's “Avalon” and Jaco Pastorious' “Dreamland,” among others.
