Who plays bass for UB40 now?

Never been into the band (heard of them, read the name on here I think) but a friend had an extra ticket and asked if I'd want to come. I figured I might as well check it out, reggae might be fun. And it was! The thing I noticed most though was how SICK the bass playing was. I only caught one glimpse of the player (I think he was playing a Warwick Dark Lord, at least that's what it looked like...) but I heard him ALL night. What a sick player!

It is, and always has been Earl Falconer.

Not sure, I seem to recall a Warwick Fortress for some reason, but I know that in the 80s and 90s he used a black Steinberger.

Great band. Many great tunes. While Red, Red Wine paid the bills there is a great discography to dig through.
