    Special guest at RAH Londen

    Have you read the latest entries on Guy's forum? He says there might be a special guest at the RAH which could indicate a new song in the setlist. I wonder who?? Perhaps Van Morrison, he gives two concerts in Londen at the end of this month.

    My guess is Steve Winwood

    New song in set-list- Gimme Some Lovin

    roundabout:

    Just checked pollstar and Steve Winwood plays in London on May 19th, then starts a US tour on May 30th.

    I guess it could happen

    If it is Winwood...my guess would be "Can't find my way home". Mark covered it in concert with EC back in the 80's...I've got it on DVD.

      It has to be someone with at least some connection with the band!  OK, Van Morrison was on STP, but Stevie Winwood?  Why?   His link to MK is far too remote.

      I think the most likely guest would be Chris White (sax) so "In the Sky" can be played.

    Yaeaahh. Clapton played a great concert in New York recently, but he reduced his live performances to minimum.

    Re: Special guest at RAH Londen

    My bet is on Chris White.

    I regret that he's not on tour.

    If it is Chris perhaps Mark wil also play a DS classic with him. Your latest trick!!

    Just a thought....Hmm

    Hmmmm...What about John Illsley? I know he put out a new CD with Cunla in the fall..but I don't think he's is presently touring.

    Re: Special guest at RAH Londen

    Last year at Hay-on-Wye, Mark was talking about his life and said that John was his neighbour and they were still good friends.  However, if the guest was John, it wouldn't be very good situation for Glenn, would it?  No, I still go for Chris White, he is the most likely!

    Re: Special guest at RAH Londen

    I don't think Glenn would make a problem if John plays along fore lets say three songs in the show... What do you think??? Lets just wait and see.....
