i cant think of a worse choice for a bassist than flea for this. ronnie needs to go back into rehab and sober up before they make this decision. i love the faces but wouldnt even think of paying for a ticket if flea was the bassist.
better bass players for this band:
bill wyman-why not have a big name player who at least fits the bill.
rick price-see above
me-i know every faces tune out there
pino pallidino-who i cant stand but i like him better than flea-bag |

Flea is an all around amazing bassist. I think he would fill in great. It's always great to play out of your box. And RHCP kick ass! I don't know what you're talking about.

| | | Flea and the Faces? That has got to be one of the most random pairings I've heard of. I doubt it's true. Funny though. Quote:

From the BBC:
Rod Stewart has denied reports that his old band Faces are reuniting for a comeback tour later this year.
Stewart's spokesperson told US music industry weekly Billboard "there are no plans for a Faces tour this year".
In July, Faces keyboard player Ian McLagan told the BBC they were considering a reunion.
It has also been reported Flea from the Red Hot Chili Peppers would join the group. But the bassist told Billboard he "knows nothing" of a Faces tour.
Speaking to 6 Music, McLagan said: "We're hoping to get together later this year to play and then we may have some news, but I want it to happen, badly.
He admitted that Stewart had been t he only member uncertain about reforming.

Call me when Rod gets back together with Jeff Beck. THAT would be good news!

With Rod Stewart saying that it isn't happening you can almost bet that it is.
I must admit I thought Flea would be an odd choice, but I'm sure he'd do a good job and not make it all about him.

| | | | I 'm sure Flea will be fine, not the best image match for them, but does get a lot of younger fans on board. Like or not Flea is a great bass player and would fill his roll.
I just hope it's not like the Yardbirds reunion, which was just OK. |
