kevin_lindsay Posted August 23, 2014 Posted August 23, 2014 I know David Rhodes is on guitar, not sure who the rest of the musicians are yet. Quote

Cairobill Posted August 23, 2014 Posted August 23, 2014 Blimey - some fantastic musicians there... Quote
molan Posted August 23, 2014 Posted August 23, 2014 Omar Hakim & John Giblin - I'd love to see those two together! Quote
drTStingray Posted August 23, 2014 Posted August 23, 2014 [quote name='Doddy' timestamp='1408785399' post='2533409'] Omar Hakim-Drums Mino Cinélu – Percussion David Rhodes – Guitar Friðrik Karlsson – Guitar John Giblin – Bass Jon Carin – Keyboards Kevin McAlea – Keyboards Jacqui Dubois – Backing vocals Sandra Marvin – Backing vocals [/quote] Wow that will be great!! Wasn't John Giblin the original fretless player on the late 70s stuff? I watched a couple of the programmes bbc4 ran on Kate Bush last night and whilst I remembered fretless being on the early major hits not having listened to the songs for years, I'd forgotten just how much it contributes to the sound - chorus laden as well!

[/quote] He played on Never For Ever, The Sensual World, The Red Shoes, Aerial and 50 Words For Snow - so he should be familiar with some of the songs... Quote

Marvin Posted August 23, 2014 Posted August 23, 2014 I'd just like to point out that Sandra Marvin is not a relative of mine, so please don't ask me for autographs etc. Ta Quote
lonestar Posted August 23, 2014 Posted August 23, 2014 Great band I wish I was going. Watched the Kate Bush biog and kate at the BBBC last night on BBC4. Brilliant Quote
Zenitram Posted August 23, 2014 Posted August 23, 2014 I know Sandra (well, my gf has done cabaret stuff with her). That's great that she's doing this. Quote
stef030 Posted August 23, 2014 Author Posted August 23, 2014 thankyou for the reply, john giblin and omar hakim gets you all moist at the thought what a superb band, gig of the year methinks Quote
NancyJohnson Posted August 24, 2014 Posted August 24, 2014 In answer to an earler point, wasn't the bassist on the first album David Paton? He's the guy who used to front Pilot. Quote

tom1946 Posted August 25, 2014 Posted August 25, 2014 Crikey, I must be old. Never heard of any of them . Quote
Bassnut62 Posted August 25, 2014 Posted August 25, 2014 I know that one of those guitarists isn't available for the Hammersmith shows, cos my mate Carlos is doing those gigs as dep. He's played for KB before too. Carlos is a killer guitarist. I haven't given his surname deliberately as I don't know if this is official news yet. Quote

[/quote] The band line up look seriously good doesnt it but alas i fear she will most likely not be playing small to medium size intimate venues at reasonable ticket prices so i will have to settle for the youtube version after the event edit - i think if i could afford a ticket i would probably go as much to see omar hakim and john giblin as Ms Bush herself Edited August 25, 2014 by steve-bbb Quote
BetaFunk Posted August 25, 2014 Posted August 25, 2014 What a great band. It would be wonderful if the band played the first half as i could listen to them then make a swift exit before Ms Bush takes the stage and still have time for a few pints in the pub before making my way home. Quote
