Does the current band play Now Be Thankful regularly?
Who sings it?
Chris sings it, and his voice is well suited to it. Agreed. Chris sings it very well, as he has since the XXXV tour and album in 2002. Thanks. I must, and will have, seen him/them do it, but I'm afraid my recall isn't what it used to be... |

enjoyable night in Oakengates Telford last night. Set list the same as Southport last week.
Maart in audience and joined them for some solo electric in "meet on the ledge" which was nice to see! Also Peggy's nephew in the audience too. So some jokes about DIY as he is a lecturer at a local college in this subject. Great to have a chat with the guys after and to get the set list signed!

A terrific night in Brecon, despite Simon losing his way in "Naked Highwayman" and accidentally taking Sally's line in MOTL.
Very tight knit, Chris' instruments a bit prominent in the mix.

Nothing said, but his right leg appeared to be giving him gip. No colds audible. |

Certainly he was in Worthing which was one of the early shows, not all the time, just for the occasional song. Just the aches and pains of age I suspect. I have trouble standing up for a couple of hours in the audience, let alone with a heavy bass guitar slung around one's neck. |

When they used to play with a drum rise I can remember him often sitting down on the edge of it during the slower numbers...and I'm talking 30 odd years ago....

In my own experience, I play better sitting down (which isn't saying much). When precision and concentration are required... |

Just about to stroll down to the Electric Palace in Bridport. I will check out for signs of cough sweets and previously undeclared leg complaints (maybe he is suffering with Peggy leg)

In terms of snotty noses it would appear Chris still has one as he brought on a box of Kleenex (man size) and had at least 3 blows during tonight's performance in Bridport. No sign of any other sniffles.
Peggy had a chair but only used it during a couple of numbers. However I did not witness his usual side shuffle that he does when playing.

Sad that the band's various ailments get more of a mention than the songs/performance do!
