Fair enough. Can't argue with the review or the clip.
As long as there isn't any lasting bad blood between all those involved it's a good thing.The singer chap sounds great and
looks absolutely chuffed to bits to be there. I know damn well that if I got the chance to stand in for Howe or Squire (I couldn't do the keys gig confidently!)
I'd be in there, as would anybody on this forum.

Love and Scones,

MSW xx

Finally got around to watching this. Sounds a bit off to me, but then
I do have a bit of a tin ear. Also can't decide who Howe more closely
resembles; Steven Hawking (if he were mobile and could play guitar) or
C. Montgomery Burns.

He reminds me of the old man character at the end of "The Musical Box" or somebody's grandad you always see hanging around down t'pub. No wait...it's Ginger Baker who looks like that.
