don't know if anyone knows Machine Gun Fellatio but their former frontwoman is kicking around Sydney playing jazz piano.... THS should recruit her. or her sister or any of the mustachioed layabouts clogging up our roadways with their squeezboxes and organ grinders we've also got some underemployed Hard-Ons who would welcome the spotlight again

My mate Goo did me an Aussie rock compilation years ago it got me into MGF, Gus & Frank, The Waifs, Tism & loads of bands.

MGF was before I came here, but i know the people involved socially.... Christa Hughes from MGF is doing jazz piano with her dad, Dick. my friend shot a doco about their whole family. her sister is also doing cabaret... either one of them could fill Franz's slot, both as multi-instrumentalists and as people who look like they wandered in from another band Peter Garret from Midnight Oil is a sell-out and a cheap politician the rest of Midnight Oil just joined Brian Ritchie from the Violent Femmes to form a surf-rock band called The Break there's a Hard Ons side-project called Nunchukka Supafly that's pretty loud

Six piece mystery solved: "It gives us a hell of a catalog to pull from," Finn says, noting that The Hold Steady has expanded to a six-piece band (with a fill-in keyboard player and an extra guitarist) for this tour.

Great to have this confirmed. Sad to lose Franz, but it's going to be absolutely amazing with two (or three, allthough I don't expect Craig to play much) guitars live. Massive!

Now that we know Steve Selvidge is the guitarist, time to guess who the "hired gun" (Selvidge's words) keyboard player is.

I for one am praying against this. I don't care if it's just dangling from his neck for 90% of the show and barely audible, I want craig to have a guitar. There's something really great about how his jerky twitchy stage presence is amplified by a guitar whirling in front of him. It gives the band a kind of off kilter energy that adds to the show imo. I agree. I love seeing Craig up there flailing around with a guitar. BUT The prospect of them having two legitimate (sorry Craig) guitarists is really, really appealing to me. I think you guys are right, they just added another guitarist.
