[edit] Core/Other Members

Not sure I agree with the definition of "Core" and "Other" members of the bans in respect of the bass players - yes, Chaney was the most recent, but Avery was the player during the period they were mostly active, and plays on all but the last record. Also considered core creative part of the songwriting on all their iconic output.

Not sure Chaney was ever a full-blown partner, he may have been a hired-hand?

Bit like Lennon being "Other" to the Beatles 'cos he wasn't present for the "Anthology" project??!?

Maybe wait and see who plays bass on the forthcoming reunion? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.50.186.227 (talk) 10:25, 14 April 2008 (UTC)


[edit] Eric Avery's return

Hello - me again - now I'm really confused - the reference link doesn't mention the detail lineup for the awards show in April - where has the info that Avery will be playing come from? Navarro's blog (www.6767.com) names the other three, implying that, so far at least, Avery isn;t confirmed as on board for this show???

I note that Avery is now listed as a "core" member though LOL —Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.50.186.227 (talk) 12:48, 16 April 2008 (UTC)

I have now added a citation that details Avery's return to the band. Tarc (talk) 12:58, 16 April 2008 (UTC)

Just came across it on Reuters and was coming back to correct myself - see you beat me to it! Nice one —Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.50.186.227 (talk) 13:01, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
