Yeah, i saw that. I'm sorry but the Faces without Rod are simply not the Faces. I'm happy to see that Ian and Kenney are playing together again, though. I'm not holding my breath that it will be any good but I wish them well. I suppose if Thin Lizzy can still tour without Phil Lynott, Woody and his crew have a chance to pull it off. Still, you'd think they could have found a better replacement for Rod than Mick Hucknell of all people.
I hear you. As much as I love the Velvet Underground, they just wouldn't be the same without Sterling Morrison.
I'm not very familiar with Hucknell (I'm not even sure who he used to sing with), but I saw a youtube clip of him singing with the Faces and it sounded good to me. I think that Ian and Kenney are some of the best rock musicians out there so I'm really glad that they're playing together again (and it will be interesting to hear Woody playing Faces songs again).
I thought of two more bands I'd like to see reform:
The original Deep Purple and White Zombie.
