obbm Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 [quote name='bass_ferret' post='47902' date='Aug 20 2007, 07:55 PM']I think Steve Lewinson played on their last live gigs. Yes they did use musicians.[/quote] And I have it on good authority that he's doing this new tour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_b Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 [quote name='Sean' post='48143' date='Aug 21 2007, 07:55 AM']..... that numpty Ronnie Wood......[/quote] Sorry, but I like Ronnie Wood. Always have. I like that ramshackle, almost falling apart feel he gets. Ok, sometimes the substances get the upper hand and it does fall apart.... but so what! I used to see him in The Birds, a great Motown/R&B band, The Jeff Beck Group, he was Jeff's favourite bass player! A band I was in supported The Faces in the 70's and now the Stones. OK, so I can remember more of his career than he can, but I think he works really well with Keith Richards. Oh, and I'm looking forward to tonight, as I'll be seeing them at the O2 Arena.

TheRev Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 [quote name='The Funk' post='48245' date='Aug 21 2007, 12:07 PM']Wasn't Rob Trujillo's $1m an advance on all the money he'd make in the band in the future?[/quote] That would make more sense. Either way, he looked pretty happy with the deal! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacDaddy Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 [quote name='Sean' post='48143' date='Aug 21 2007, 07:55 AM']I heard that Darryl Jones was being paid $20,000 a week by The Rolling Stones when touring and a smaller retainer when not. This sounds realistic for a huge act and the fact that Darryl is now an established member of the tours.[/quote] Back in the late 80's one of the muso's in the James Last Orchestra was asked why he stayed with them. He said the Orchestra work for 6 months of the year, but he still gets paid for the other 6. (the joke at the time was 'what's the difference between a cow, and the James Last Orchestra? the cow has the horns at the front and the tit at the back') Regardless of your opinion of the musical worth of the Spice Girls, it's a quality gig for a sessionist, and will undoubtedly lead to other work.
