Bob Welch weighs in on the Pre-Rumours Reunion Rumour
 

Thanks so much for the link to Bob Welch's board. I scurried over there and posted a question re: the rumour of a pre-Rumours reunion and Bob answered immediately. What a great surprise!

(wow, do you guys think that's really Bob posting?! my respect for rock and rollers goes waaay up when they communicate with fans.)

Here is his reply:

"Laura....Thanks for all the "props" and praise!It doesn't seem like 32 years has passed since MTM was released...I still feel 22 ...well.. maybe 23 ;-) I don't know if there will be a reunion tour...I've talked to Mick Fleetwood about it , but nothing has been planned. Believe me , if anything like that happens , I'll post it on the site. Thanks for listening all these years ! Bob Welch"

Let's all think good thoughts about this "idea" and hope that it comes to pass.

Wow, that's a great story. would most definitely be there if that happened. I've been to his site a couple times, and although I havent asked Bob any questions, its nice to hear that he answers them promptly. :)

I hope so. I would like to hear some of the pre Rumours songs live again.

Boy, I would love to hear them too. We can dream, can't we? And if it happens some day, then our dreams would have come true! :angel:

I think I'd like to hear Station Man, Hypnotized, Sentimental Lady (although it would be kind of a bummer without Chris), Man Of The World, Albatross, Need Your Love So Bad, Trinity....That's about half a set list isn't it? :lol:

Add Emerald Eyes, Why, and Angel.

I would give a vital organ to hear her play Why. I purposely left Chris's older material out because I don't think there's any chance she will ever play live again. In that case, I'd want to hear Heroes Are Hard To Find, Spare Me A Little and Did You Ever Love Me.

And, "Future Games", "Remember Me", "Believe Me", "The Way I Feel", "Come A Little Bit Closer", "Prove Your Love" & "She's Changing Me"... but only if by some miracle Christine ever played live again.

What was the Kiln House song that Lindsey played live on the early part of the Rumours tour called?

Station Man?

I wish I had it on hand. I've listened to the album quite a bit, No, its something about "All the things you do" does that sound right? I know I've heard it on a few early Rumours tour boots

Tell Me All the Things You Do. That was a Danny Kirwan song.

he did that? I don't even recall.

Yes. I think I have it on 3-21-77 in Philadelphia. or somewhere near it. I believe it was dropped pretty quickly. It seems that they changed the setlist somewhat frequently on that tour. Wo, I knew something one of the administartors didnt. that's a first. :lol:

"Tell Me All The Things You Do" was also done on all those Rumours rehearsals, although it was Lindsey & Chris on most of those vocals. Stevie & Lindsey did the vocals at the Philadelphia show.

I think they took those early songs out of their set list when it was becoming obvious that the Rumours album was becoming a massive hit.
