"20 Years of Tall Tales" is the title of the web series THE BLACK CROWES will roll out starting Tuesday, August 3, the street date for "Croweology" (Silver Arrow/Megaforce Records), their first-ever double album of all-acoustic material with new arrangements of their best-loved songs and deep cuts.

In a wide-ranging and freewheeling interview marking the 20th anniversary of their landmark multi-platinum debut, 1990's "Shake Your Moneymaker", frontman Chris Robinson talks about where THE BLACK CROWES -- arguably one of the most misunderstood rock bands of all time -- have been and where they are now.

Throughout the month of August, the band will release via its web site one webisode per day. It's all here: the highs, the lows, controversies, arrests, feuds and more. "20 Years of Tall Tales" was directed and produced by John Vanover and filmed earlier this month at Robinson's LA home.

* Did THE BLACK CROWES -- a band that has never played it musically or commercially safe and at times been crucified for it -- really spend $1,000,000 recording an album ("Tall") that went unreleased for more than a decade?
* What really happened in that Denver convenience store that led to Chris' arrest?
* Why was the band really fired from the Aerosmith tour before being reinstated?
* What really went on in the studio the night the band held a bacchanalia for the amorica album?
* What really drives the relationship between Chris and his brother, guitarist Rich Robinson?
* How did the union of THE BLACK CROWES and OASIS on the "Tour of Brotherly Love" actually cancel out the feuds of both bands' brothers?
* And what about the band's recently announced lengthy hiatus that will begin when their upcoming "Say Goodnight To The Bad Guys 2010" tour ends this year with an epic six-night stand in San Francisco at The Fillmore December 12-19?

Fasten your seat belts as THE BLACK CROWES -- Chris Robinson (vocals/guitar), Rich Robinson (guitar), Steve Gorman (drums), Sven Pipien (bass), Luther Dickinson (guitar) and Adam McDougall (keyboards) -- share the ride in "20 Years of Tall Tales".
