Rod Stewart Will Not Join Faces For Reunion Gig
Legendary English band the Faces are set for a reunion concert in London this October, but without frontman Rod Stewart.
The BBC reports that Ronnie Wood, Ian McLagen and Kenny Jones will get together to play at the Royal Albert Hall on October 25. The show will be in aid of the Performing Right Society’s Music Members’ Benevolent Fund and will also feature Simply Red’s Mick Hucknall, former Spice Girl Mel C and Kiki Dee.
There were no statements by Ronnie Wood regarding Stewart’s absence, but he did mention the late band member Ronnie Lane. “This will be so special for us, staging a reunion for such a wonderful and prestigious event,” he said. “Sadly Ronnie Lane can’t be with us, but I’m sure he will be there in spirit, God bless him.”

Maybe the Faces can be booked to play at the 2010 Arts & Music Festival in Coachella, California. It just could lure Rod to join the boys on stage…as for bass-man I’d perfer to see Tetsu Yamauchi fill in. But, where ever they play I want my son to experience a Faces concert…in the 70’s no one did it better!!!!
The Faces with Mick (who despite my protestations was a damn good Rod replacement at the Albert Hall last year) are confirmed for 13th August at Vintage Good wood. http://www.vintageatgoodwood.com/artists/bandsdjs.aspx
