No I guess only the Specials got a sound check on the 2Tone tour, but everyone would demand one now - which would be impossible! Another ten years and some of us wont be here anyways

Your post before last was a little prophetic, Roddy. RIP Brad. Hope you're not too upset.

Who knows, I heard somewhere that the 4 were working on 'new material' which came as a bit of a shock to me.

Yes I heard they had been working on new stuff!?! Funny when I was with them and me and Lynval suggested recording new material I was told no as it would hurt our heritage..

It really doesn't matter Terry could sit by a wind up gramophone record player and play the greatest hits and some Ska fans would still pay £40+ for a ticket
