With ’70s band the Faces to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame next year, original singer Rod Stewart has spoken about possibly re-joining his old colleagues for a show or two.
Stewart told Rolling Stone, “Oh, yeah! I’d love it. If they’re all available I’ll definitely make myself available.”
The band also included guitarist Ronnie Wood, keyboardist Ian McLagan, drummer Kenney Jones and late bassist Ronnie Lane.
“It’s something that I would want to do, but it’s getting a commitment from Ronnie [Wood] who is hanging onto what the Stones are going to do. He’ll suddenly say, ‘Hey, let’s tour next week!’ I’ll say, ‘Hold on Ronnie, I've got commitments! I’ve got commitments for the next year.’
“If we all sat around and said, ‘Let’s do it next summer, or let’s do it for charity’ or whatever reason, I would do it. It’s not totally ruled out.”
Watch this space.
Stewart told Billboard: “The trouble with Ronnie, we get together and we mess about, but the thing is, he is still committed to the Stones. Talking for myself and the rest of the band, we need a commitment, not just, ‘Well, I’ve got next month off.’ It doesn’t work like that. It’s not very professional.
