What if it's true?What if it's true - just a thought. BTW I'm available for a few songs if they want. Otherwise, it's Stranglers IV?
Lock away Jimbo!

Baz would be a great frontman I reckon. And JJ should go back to singing Change, 5 Minutes, Curfew etc...
Would be great if Soulsec really took off so this could become possible.

Although I think it's a silly rumour I have to admit it has some charme. With Baz and JJ taking over lead vocals the Stranglers will sound even better. And of course all the best for Paul with Soulsec.
Sorry Jim - now I'm quiet and no further part of this discussion.

Not one to flame the s with gasoline or anything, but when I read the above I couldn't help thinking back to...
(disolve to JJ & Baz in Glasgow night)
"Still, I was close enough to get Baz a drink (Brandy & Black) and hear him mutter under his breath when, after he had played his set and JJ took the stage and said something like, "Well, if we ever need a new singer we know who to ask." the big guitarist said, "I couldn't take the grief!"

err, fair enough mate.
So who has mentioned this to you then Jim?
As far as I can see, following the source on the original
post, it was just a couple of anonymous posts @ www.the-stranglers.com that kicked this off again.

Ive heard that the Brass are returning for WSM and Dave is going to use his Hammond again along with the Wasp & OB1.
Hugh would be playing but he has contractual obligations with his solo stuff.
Honest!

The fact that you heard what someone told you doesn't mean that it's a correct information (which didn't come from a band member I guess)

Actually, I just heard that Hugh is due to check into that hotel next to the WSM gig sometime in the next few hours!!

Mr. Me, it wasn't me with the rumours - unfortunately I'm not informed by a band member. All these messages aren't live threatening, at least we can laugh a bit and just see what happens. Let's don't take everything too serious. We'll get a new Stranglers album and I'm grateful for that.
Live is a one way street full of broken people acting so cool - this sentence is from a song by The Ace (1980 I think), formerly called Menace. Anyone remember? :-)
