Any number of people would be better. Why do they have to go with a name?

I don't really have a problem with Flea joining the band...

...it's more an issue of the band reuniting at all.

Leave well enough alone, fellas.

The Small Faces > The Faces

"Come On Children" is the jam of jams.

Let's give him a chance...
People said the same thing when Watt was selected to be the bassist of The Stooges...too busy...

Heck...I wish Lane was still alive...what a talent...

BTW
The Small Faces and The Faces were both great bands...
So was Humble Pie!

Rock on...

Who would be a better fill-in?

Flea is a bad-ass bassist.

I interviewed a member of the band a few days ago, and I can tell you that if the reunion happens it’s not going to be Flea.

The problem is, some of the best Faces material was written by Lane. I don’t think Flea can make up for that.

Ugh. UGH. Look, I like RHCP. But if Faces must bother reuniting without Ronnie (I wish they wouldn't) then Flea's a terrible choice.

@owenmeany: Yeah, he's good, but it just makes me nervous that he'd throw some slap bass in at the end of "Stay With Me".

@doublewhiskycokenoice: Rod Stewart has the best rock voice ever.
