I shall take the first opportunity Dave. Findley is great in the brilliant Back of the Moon, and Ciaran's already proved a terrific addition - one of the best singers I know, and he's best known for 'knocking up a shed' (as Tom Napper often says when introducing him in the The Idle Road). Denny is irreplaceable, of course - but if anyone had to, then Findley was an inspired choice. I'm looking forward to it enormously.

PS. Findley's brother Hamish (also in BOTM) doesn't look much like him - but Aaron Jones, (now seen out with Tom McConville as well as Claire Mann - and also bass in the Old Blind Dogs) could be his twin. How did that happen then? I want to see them both on the same stage!
