How well do Jerry and Simon fit together?  They both play lead instruments; do they clash or meld?

My ideal line-up, from people still around the HW camp, would certainly include Dave, Richard and Simon, and Jerry if he and Simon can work out lead roles together.  They'd need a bassist, for which Alan would be a most welcome return IMO.  (Though I've no idea if Alan and Dave still speak to each other).  I don't know how well Ron fitted in to the recent tour, but from what I've seen of him in earlier years I'd happily keep him as a singer.  And I'd probably be happy if Harvey rejoined on keyboards, and even Nik if he promises not to sing!  (Especially if he plays more flute).

Somehow I can't imagine the eight of them all getting it together though, both personally and on stage!

The problem with this sort of game is that it's essentially backward-looking.  Maybe they'll find someone new who fits the job much better.

Dave.
