Familiar Face missing for one-night charity show
SEVENTIES chart stars The Faces are to reform for a one-off show – without frontman Rod Stewart.
Guitarist Ronnie Wood – now a Rolling Stone – has long talked about a reunion for the band, whose hits include Stay With Me.
Now he is teaming up with former bandmates, plus a selection of guest vocalists, to play a charity show at London's Royal Albert Hall next month, it was announced yesterday.
The band evolved from the Small Faces when singer Steve Marriott left to form Humble Pie and Stewart stepped in.
The one-night-only show on 25 October will aid the PRS for Music Members' Benevolent Fund, which helps musicians, songwriters and their families with financial struggles. The fund has helped Katy Lane, the former wife of Faces star Ronnie Lane, who died of MS in 1997. He will be replaced for the show by ex-Rolling Stone Bill Wyman.
