I have heard that Ron Wood and Rod Stewart will be touring together after the Stones finish touring this year. Does anyone have information about this? Is it Faces reunion tour? |

I heard this same thing, Joe. They've been planning to do this since the nineties.
The Faces did reunite once before, one night only, with Bill Wyman replacing the ailing Ronnie Lane on bass, but that was it. With Plonk gone for good, I don't think they have the heart to do it without him. Besides being a fantastic songwriter, he was also a kickass bass player - I don't think you'll see his like again in a long time.
Ronnie's said he'd be thrilled doing it, but that his and Rod's schedules never work out properly.
Also in the works since the late nineties is their joint album "You Strum And I'll Sing", which they've both talked about forever. But Rod is doing another collection of old songs.
Personally, I wouldn't hold my breath, but you never know.
Welcome to the board, by the way!

Lets hope he returns to be Stewarts guitarist so we can finally get a real guitar player back in the band-namely one Mick Taylor. |

jb, your lack of respect for Woody is disheartening. I hope he's Rod's guitarist again because he brings out the true singing and songwriting talent in Stewart. The man is great with Ronnie. Without him, it's crap, aka "Da Ya Think I'm Sexy," "Young Turks," "Tonight I'm Yours" and syrupy takes on "Have I Told You Lately" and "So Far Away."
Wo-wo-wo-wo-woody! |

I have a pretty good feeling this reunion will come to pass. Rod refers to it often - the title track has already been recorded....seems like a natural. Remember, Rod and Ronnie toured together in promotion of the Unplugged album several years ago... |

This kind of talk - a Ron/Rod has worried me for a long time. It's sort of looking into the past really.
What if the Stones should really hit a creative streak, turn out some great tunes, and keep the ball rolling?
If all of this is true, it's almost like Ron had a look around, realized there's nothing new down the road for the near future, and put his attention into the Ron&Rod tour.
I'm sure all of this is crap. I hope the Stones lock in tight and record, record, record, and give us a great album. |
