PALM SPRINGS, Fla., Aug. 14 (UPI) -- Los Angeles rockers Great White are celebrating the band's 25th anniversary with a reunion of the original lineup and a new album.
The group members have also put any lingering animosities to rest, singer Jack Russell said.
"It's really comfortable," says Russell, who went through rehab for drug and alcohol addictions in recent years. "It's like, 'All right, here we are doing it again, 25 years later -- how cool is that?' Everyone is feeling really appreciative that we're so blessed after all this time to still do it.
"We're even talking about the next album's art work, y'know? And I'm saying, 'Whoa, let's write the (music) first!' "
Russell and the Great White organization still face civil litigation stemming from the 2003 fire at the Station club in Rhode Island, caused by the band's pyrotechnics, in which 100 people -- including guitarist Ty Longley -- perished.
