and it's not The Faces.

Was Tetsu Yamauchi not available for the bass spot? Then Paul Rodgers could take the vocals for a Free/Faces tribute band.

I am quite prepared to admit to liking Hucknall's Bobby Bland tribute a year or so back, but as lead singer with the Faces ... ? I'll give it a miss.

I was at Rod's (fantastic) gig in Brum on Saturday night. Halfway through, he says "Here's one Mick Hucknall didn't write." and the opening riff to 'Stay With Me' thundered out. Rod never sounded better and the band fair ripped the shit out it. Absoultely made my night. Sorry, but The Faces without Rod doesn't work (I'd feel the same about them without Ronnie as well.)

(and I for one wish him a speedy recovery) why not get Rod to take up the temporary vacancy in U2 while the Huckster does the Faces gig?

The Faeces had reformed? Mick Hucknall on vocals, must be true

Led Zeppelin reform with Haddaway?

with Jenny replacing Cozy

its a non starter.

I'm hoping the reason that Rod doesn't want to do it is not down to his lucrative murdering standards career but that the Faces w\o Ronnie Lane wasn't really the Faces either

with Gary and Phil on vocals.
