Rod Stewart, Ron Wood Revive Faces in Hollywood
By Dean Goodman
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - It was just like old days -- except for the absence of booze and cigarettes -- as former Faces members Rod Stewart, Ron Wood and Ian McLagan reunited in a rare on-stage performance during Stewart's concert at the Hollywood Bowl on Monday.
Wood, better known these days as guitarist with the Rolling Stones, accompanied Stewart mid-concert on five songs, including the Faces' biggest hit "Stay With Me," and returned at the finale to sing the band's wistful 1973 ode "Ooh La La" as McLagan played organ.
Stewart, 59, described Wood, 57, as "my best mate and younger brother," and the chummy chemistry between the similarly coiffed rabble-rousers of British rock thrilled the crowd.
Since Wood left the Faces to join the Rolling Stones on their 1975 tour, allowing Stewart to focus on his solo career, reunions between the two have been rare. The Bowl show marked their first extensive collaboration since Wood helped out Stewart at an MTV "Unplugged" taping in early 1993.
The Faces, famous for their alcohol-fueled camaraderie and sloppy playing, formed in 1969 when Jeff Beck Group alumni Stewart and Wood joined Small Faces members McLagan, drummer Kenney Jones and late bassist Ronnie Lane . The band never let work get in the way of having a good time, but managed to release four studio albums of raw bluesy rock.
Stewart apologetically warned the Bowl crowd that some of the tunes could be rough because of limited rehearsal time, but Wood summed up the Faces' career by saying, "That's what we're about is f---ing up, baby."
They also dusted off Faces covers of "(I Know) I'm Losing You" and "I'd Rather Go Blind," featuring a lengthy Wood guitar solo, as well as Stewart's own "Every Picture Tells a Story" and "You Wear It Well."
Wood returned at the end to play along on "Maggie May" and Sam Cooke's "Having a Party/Twistin' the Night Away," before Stewart generously gave him the spotlight for "Ooh La La."

some very nice reviews of Ronnie's performance in the IORR site
more importantly, some even better news in the last of these 3 reviews:
>Ronnie looked terrific and played beautifully. Taking the stage about 10 songs into Rod's set, following a guest appearance by Rod's 17-year-old daughter, Ron tore into Stay With Me, followed by Every Picture Tells a Story, You Wear It Well, (I Know) I'm Losing You and I'd Rather Go Blind. His leads were strong and he and Rod shared the same mic throughout the set, clearly enjoying themselves. At one point, Rod joked that they had had the same haircut for the past 40 years. Ronnie then left the stage for several songs, after Rod promised that he would be back later in the show.
After a brief intermission and several selections from Rod's Great American Yawnbook Vols. 1 & 2, Ronnie came back out for Maggie May, a bit of Gasoline Alley, Having a Party/Twisting the Night Away and . . . best of all! . . . did the lead vocal on Ooh La La. For several songs, he played a guitar with the tongue logos.
He was extraordinary.

>Just got home from the Hollywood Bowl. Ronnie was amazing. Came out on stage with Rolling Stones Tongue logo on his guitar strap, wearing old blue jeans and an lime green shirt. Played his sunburst Fender strat for most of the show.
>I am back also from the show. Ronnie sounded fantastic proving that any doubts about his guitar playing are unfounded. He was especially great on the solo for I'd Rather Go Blind. Ian MacLagan was in fact at the show and played on Maggie May until the end.
Through a guy I know, who is a good friend of Ronnie's, I was able to meet Ronnie after the show and got a photo taken with him, as well as a few things signed. He is such a genuinely nice guy. I told Ronnie that we are all very concerned about Charlie and he told that Charlie's treatment had just ended on Sunday. The good thing is that you could see that he was very optimistic about Charlie. While I did not personally ask Ronnie about the tour next year, my friend had told me that he has heard that they are planning to start the tour in June, though he did not know if it would start in the US or elsewhere.

Very nice.
Thank ye thank ye.
Nice Ronnie kept his Stones strap.
Now if only Keith would approve of Ronnie's guitar to be a bit louder and not to stay in the shadows as much it'l be like Stones 81, 82 again. |

Yes, Martha!! Rod should tour with Ronnie with Ian McLagan on keyboards!
It would be great. It would get Rod's career out of the gutter and warm up Ronnie for the Stones. |

I was at the Hollywood Bowl last night and reminded once again why I hate that place so much. It was a nice that they added video screens but I dont really give a damn whether I can see or not if I can't even hear the music at a decent volume. |

YES!!! You must have been having an off night, mac_daddy (?!?!?!)... The sound was nothing but spectacular when I saw The Who there recently and my friend and I were sitting in the benches... Usually at concerts, I'm within at least the first ten rows but I just moved and bought a laptop, etc. (but we enjoyed the HELL out of the show, none-the-less!!!)...  The crowd does tend to get packed-in like sardines at that place, though, but maybe it was just that show... I like going there during the summer and we had a great parking spot there so I was happy!!!
Anyways, Joey, if you feel like updating me on your health, please do but I have a feeling you're pulling my leg and I fell for it... LAUGHING!!!!!! But, just in case, let me know, ok.?!?!?! Anyways, take care, PEACE, and DO ROCK ON!!! PEACE!!!
