Neil Finn fans are also trying to get their heads around this and what it may mean for him. I don't think he's the type who will take on something for a long period of time, that won't also advance him creatively. Early days yet but we'll see what happens.

My dream is that they want to go out recording wise like they came in 59 years ago as a more blues based band. I’m thinking in the style of Tom Pettys Mojo album. Mick,john and Chris clearly have the ability and desire to switch back into that mode. The first song Chris played live after her long hiatus was Get Like You Used to Be in Hawai. And then Stevie doesn’t really have a style. I don’t mean that as a criticism but it’s true. Musically she’s just going to sound like whoever she’s with at the time. And luckily for me it’s with a potential Mojo sounding band!
