Topic: It's Official : Rod Stewart and Ronnie Wood To Reform The Faces

After months of speculation, The Faces are set to reunite for rehearsals with a view to a full reformation.

Frontman Rod Stewart told Raysgigs.com that all the original members aside from late bassist Ronnie Lane, who died in 1997, were set to reconvene on Monday (November 17) to run through their old hits.

The singer, who spoke at the Claridges Bar 10th anniversary party in Britain, said the band, which includes current Rolling Stones guitarist Ronnie Wood, will use Stewart's touring bassist to fill in for Lane.

The Faces split up in 1975 after Wood began playing with the Rolling Stones.

Now if only Rod and Jeff Beck could patch things together and with Ronnie go for a proper Jeff Beck Group reunion.....

"Flea will be the bass player for The Faces reunion tour. Guitarist Ronnie Wood has confirmed the band - fronted by Rod Stewart - are already rehearsing for and revealed the Red Hot Chili Peppers' bassist is ready to step in to replace original member Ronnie Lane, who died in 1997. According to Wood, a new album is under consideration."

Ronnie told Rolling Stone magazine: "We had a few fantastic rehearsals last week and we're ready to go. It's like no time has passed by. There's a lot of guest bass players that want to do it - including Flea."

Flea is one of the MOST OUTSTANDING & ENTERTAINING BASS PLAYERS I have ever had the privilege to see perform! He is AMAZING!! The RHCP are my fountain of youth...loved that last tour...   My kids turned me on to them.

tell me baby...what's your story...
