Maggie May An old boss of mine was their lighting man back in the day. Rod had a bar set up in the stage left wing to provide drinks during the show for him. Complete with barman in a white barman’s jacket. Quote

tightrope Posted January 13, 2022 Posted January 13, 2022 Unfortunately the guys a cock, hence his talksport cameos, all Ferrari and Celtic. Billy big baws Prick of a man. Not even Scottish. Quote
Zico Posted January 13, 2022 Posted January 13, 2022 Rod’s a ***** but The Faces were a good band. Bad n Ruin is a ****ing great song! Quote
manaliveits105 Posted January 13, 2022 Posted January 13, 2022 Great music - love the early stuff but seen him at Edinburgh Castle with the Celtic drums and Celtic strips at the front of stage - which he always plays up to - wouldn’t go to another fair play to him though he has had a dream life Quote

Cracking programme on Sky Arts the other night documenting the lifespan of The Small Faces; sadly only Kenney Jones still with us. Steve Marriot was a great singer and songwriter, Rod Stewart is an absolute ^^^^. Quote

joondalupjambo Posted January 14, 2022 Posted January 14, 2022 Saw them at a gig in Edinburgh, early 70's at The Playhouse I think it was, they were great. Quote
Mister T Posted January 14, 2022 Posted January 14, 2022 Ronnie Lane's input to the Faces is never properly recognised. Debris is an outstanding tune. Quote
XB52 Posted January 14, 2022 Posted January 14, 2022 Got all the old Rod and the Faces songs and some are classics. Seen Rod Stewart countless times in concert and he's a great showman but wish he'd pack it in now, or a few years ago really, as he still tries to be the "do you think I'm sexy" guy and the answer is a big NO at his age Quote

Ronnie Lane was a great bass player and wonderful song writer. On another note ,I read the Ian Mclagan book ( great read) and he talked about when RS decided to leave the Faces. He said he behaved like billy big baws and basically just walked out on the band. Quote

An incredible artist. Everyone remembers Maggie May but when I got my first bass I had a go at the baseline. Em...what ? Gave up until I could play much better. Great great musician. Quote

He used Ronnie Wood joining the Stones as an excuse but I think he would have left anyway. His solo career was outgrowing the Faces by then. Quote
Buzz Posted January 14, 2022 Posted January 14, 2022 I think Rod’s a bit of an erse but I do like ‘What Made Milwaukee Famous’ Quote
Angry Haggis Posted January 14, 2022 Posted January 14, 2022 (edited) Ian McGlagan in his auto biography described Rod as “tighter than two coats of paint” Rod’s an arse. Edited January 14, 2022 by Angry Haggis Quote

Tazio Posted January 15, 2022 Posted January 15, 2022 So we’ve all agreed? Rod is a knob but The Faces were a great band. Quote
