 The Black Crowes played a few shows in the eastern US in early January before the release of By Your Side , then spent the rest of the month promoting the album via television appearances in the US , Canada and Europe . A brief warm @-@ up show in Milwaukee , Wisconsin , on February 10 preceded a two @-@ month tour of North American theaters , called the Souled Out Tour , with Moke as the opening band . Every song from By Your Side was played at some point on this tour – " Go Faster " , " Kickin ' My Heart Around " , " By Your Side " and " Virtue and Vice " were performed at most shows , but " Diamond Ring " was played only twice . A 1963 Fender Esquire guitar belonging to Rich was stolen from the backstage area at DeVos Performance Hall in Grand Rapids , Michigan , on February 16 . The band 's management waited six weeks before issuing a press release asking for its return , hoping the guitar would turn up in a local pawnshop . No update on the guitar was ever provided . After taking two weeks off , the band spent six weeks playing outdoor amphitheaters in the US on a co @-@ headlining tour with Lenny Kravitz ; opening acts were Everlast and Cree Summer .
