So what was the name of the group that I saw in 1975 with Rod, Ron, Ian, Kenny, and Tetsu, question mark
Only 1 announced so far. The Goodwood festival in England in August. But Ronnie says that they will be hitting the road in January.Quote

For me Tetsu doesn't. Like I said, when Ronnie Lane left that was the end of the Faces and it became more Rod's backing band. Which is why Ronnie left! He felt that the focus changed away from THE FACES to Rod the Mod. So much so that many promoters were advertising as such...Rod Stewart and The Faces...hmmmmmm. No Tetsu was ok, but no Ronnie Lane, and Tetsu could never sing Your So Rude! And Debris...so that's not The Faces.

According to Voodoo from Rocks Off. Ronnie's son Jesse will be the backup guitarist for The Faces.

In my opinion, not the Faces, but Rod Stewart's back up band. When Ronnie Lane left they stopped being The Faces. He was the soul of The Faces. The rock and roll gypsy. But with Rod being gone... well he was one of the voices of The Faces ,so you are left with Oh La La, so now it is Ronnie's back up band. Even farther from The Faces.

Hucknall Defensive After Faces Backlash
British singer MICK HUCKNALL has defended himself after fans criticised his inclusion in THE FACES, insisting he's replacing ROD STEWART because the MAGGIE MAY star can no longer hit the high notes.
The former Simply Red star has been confirmed as the new frontman of the reunited supergroup and will join Ronnie Wood, Kenney Jones and Ian MCLagan for a tour next year (11).
The news was met with an outcry from many of the group's loyal followers - but Hucknall is convinced he'll be able to win over audiences because his voice sounds like Stewart's at the height of the band's success in the 1970s.
He says, "It's a shame that Rod can't do it but then Rod isn't the Rod of 1973. Those songs, the keys are so high and it's pretty intense staying at that kind of pitch for the whole night."

If Keith, Charlie and Ronnie had 'reformed' the Stones in 89 with Mick Hucknall instead of Mick J would it have been the Stones? Would you have gone?
No Rodders, No Faces.
