Piltdownboy on horseback 22 Group: Members Posts: 1548 Joined: Sep. 2005 Posted: Oct. 10 2006, 16:56 Nah, serious... eh... I'm not sure there will be someone just like him to replace him... I mean, I don't know of any band that I think could be the new Beatles, or Elvis. I think bands will come and go, and some original ones can't be replaced. But then that's just my humble opinion...   -------------- "And now we're going to play Platinum!" Back to top

TubularBelle Group: Members Posts: 1487 Joined: April 2004 Posted: Oct. 11 2006, 18:10 Mike has 4 sons. Dougall and Luke to Sally Cooper who would be in their early 20's now, Noah to Anita Hegerland who is about 14 and Jake with Fanny who is just 2. But are any of them musically inclined? I don't mind who takes the reins as long as it isn't someone from IDOL. I know, Eric Mongrain, a Canadian. Wanna hear his work, check out my LemKuiper thread, he looks pretty young, early 20's perhaps. -------------- I hate getting up early. I didn't even realise there were two 6 o'clocks in one day!

OK - the prize goes to you Mr JamesFloyd.... Best answer so far in my opinion. One used plectrum on it's way.  Although it has been used to strum a certain 1957 Gibson Les Paul Junior TV.       Ray -------------- Looking out over the harbour in Peel....... Back to top
