Can someone tell me who Paul´s band mates will be for the 2011 tour (starting tomorrow, I´ll be there Sunday!)?

Jim Oblon - drums; Jamey Haddad (percussion); Mark Stewart (mainly guitars... Musical Director); Vincent Nguini (guitars); Bakhiti Kumalo (bass; baritone guitar); Mick Rossi (piano/organ); Tony Cedras (keyboards, accordion, trumpet, guitar); Andy Snitzer (Sax, Apple) - Think that´s it!

Thanks, I will add that to the live section too.

Need a profile for Jim Oblon and Mick Rossi.
Does someone have any infos, or can send me nice pictures of those 2?

No mention of Mark Stewart in the credits for the album, although he does appear on the DVD - but no written credits about the DVd.

Maybe Mark has been added to the main title? ;-)

I think he has at least played the guitar part on Rewrite (as he does live). Somehow I do not see Paul playing that tricky part, where he just imitates some strange moves ;-)

Or did Paul play ALL guitars? In an interview he mentions playing all the guitars, but later he also said Vincent played on [xxx] song.

What Paul is doing on the live version (I believe) is he is making the sort of squeking sound that is a rhythm accompaniment to the guitar part. Its like he is doing accounstically what Brian Eno did electronically. When you listen to guitar players slide from one fret to another you often hear this kind of sound, but not done on purpose. You can certainly hear it on Hearts And Bones. But Paul is the first person I´ve ever heard use it as a rhythm device.

Bodo, he is not just imitating. Can´t you hear the sound he is creating sliding up and down the guitar? I think it is very original and inventive.

of course I can hear that.

But I am not sure if it really adds something special...or if there are better ways. At least on the album version this sound has not been added.

I will work on my rethink, no other chance is left.
