That's exactly what happens. You all get together without the party you're considering booting out, and then tell them it was the manager's idea. See also Pete Best, Mick Jones, and my mate Paul.
Or you don't even blame the manager, you give them the old "either they leave or I go" line. See Lou Reed when wanting John Cale out of the Velvets. Jules |

Interesting in the circumstances that Iain turned up for the Joe Boyd curated "1969" show at the Barbican a few years back. Given his treatment you would think he would have as much or more right to hold a grudge against Mr Boyd than a certain other ex band member who did not turn up.
On the other hand, he got a number 1 record out of it which nobody else in this sorry story can claim.
Iain was heavily featured at that show, and his duet with Kelly While on "I'll Keep It With Mine" was transcendent. He was pure class throughout. |

It is rather different, and easier to navigate on a touchscreen. |

It's not updated yet for me, still loads the 'We are just doing some work on our website' message.

Probably the mobile version is there but the rest isn't, yet.

It was there until about 09:45.
Since then just a holding page.
I suspect they didn't mean to let it go live just yet.

It is up now, albeit with missing sections that will be filled in shortly. Looks great, and I especially love the YouTube channel

It was and still is working for me on my desktop, I don't do the net on my mobile. (I don't even take selfies, text or make calls on my mobile - I use it as an alarm clock.  ) |

Beginning of December I thought typically though it might vary from year to year depending on contracts. |

I was thinking the same today myself. I like to sort my tickets early so I have plenty of time to lose them....  |

Some fairly strong hints a couple of months ago that Gryphon might be asked....but, in all honesty,they are unlikely to pull in huge crowds. |

Let's face it, 2016 is unlikely to be a vintage year with all the friends and associated acts turning up for the 2017 extravaganza (a phrase bandied about last August by someone who should know).
As always, we shall shuffle along for the craic.
