I would like to hope that Dave & the boys  have  some more creative spark
left to spare
and that when it happens it will be glorious.

Look at their acchievements - (I know I don't have to say it) - but such a
brilliant collection of utterly mind blowing music for all these years and
still going.

I say the end is never nigh.......

Peace
