Does Kravitz actually have hits?  I know maybe 2 songs.  Disappointing...but at least he wasn't announced as the opener for my date...July 31 in New Orleans.  I'm hoping they bring on someone kick ass after Kravitz's run.

Bammer, let me help you out since you only listen to Sweet Home Alabama, Alabama (the band), and GNR.

semi hits

Always on the Run
American Woman (The Guess Who Cover)
Are You Gonna Go My Way
Believe
Sister

Okay off the top of my head I can't think of anymore.

War Eagle.

Haha just messing.

You forgot one of my favorite Lenny songs. This was the hit that got him famous.

What's with "semi hits"? He had hits.

This version of Are You Gonna Go My Way is incredible. It's from Unplugged.

BLS and anyone else not a fan or never listened to his music, these hits are pretty much guaranteed to be performed since its in the rock vein. He dropped off my radar eons ago so he could have a speed metal record in his 2000s discog for all I know.

regular version of Are You Gonna Go My Way pretty much a guarantee.

You must be high if you think fly away is a good song.

Surely that's what most of the audience will be doing during his set.

Also topkek at "we came up.together"  Does he think we don't know his parents were famous.  So it's not some rags to riches shit like axl n izzy.

Even though I no longer use drugs I guess I relapsed because that is a kick ass song. Takes me back to the late 90s....a great time to be alive. Too bad GNR weren't doing jack shit at the time. Would've made it even better.

Shame since his music has been generic pop garbage since he cut his dreads off...  Was lucky to catch him before then with blues traveler, hell of a sbow back then.

I always found his stuff to be unoffensive and boring.

Lenny Kravitz? Fuck yes, bust out some Always On The Run with Slash, and for a deeper cut, bust out The Majority with Duff. That would kick all sorts of ass!

They can't not do this when Lenny opens for them.
