Mott the Hoople Reunion

Ian Hunter Dot Com
The Horse's Mouth: It's On!
"Just thought you'd like to know the Mott the Hoople reunion IS going to take place on October 2nd & 3rd, 2009 at the HMV Hammersmith Apollo in London. It will be the original members - Mick, Pete, Phally, Buff and me. They've asked our esteemed webmaster, Justin, to formulate a Mott the Hoople site which should be up and running in the near future. Why are we doing it? I can't speak for the others, but I'm doing it just to see what it's like. Short of war, death, famine etc. ...it's ON."
Ian Hunter


こんなニュースがIan Hunterのオフィシャル・サイトでのニュースであった。。。
当事者の口より:「やるぜ!」
10月2、3日、ロンドンのHMVハマースミスオデオン・アポロにおいて、Mott the Hoople再結成が実現する。これはオリジナル・メンバーによるもので、Mick(Ralphs)、Pete("Overend" Watts)、Phally(Verden Allen)、Buff(Dale Griffin)とオレ(Ian Hunter)という編成。オレたちのウェブマスターJustinにMott the Hoopleのサイトを立ち上げるように言われているので、もうすぐ上がるはずだ。何でこんな事をやるのかって?他の奴らはどうなのか知らないけど、オレはどうなるのか見てみたいね。戦争、死、飢饉等々の一歩手前で…やるぜ。

これはよくあるオーケストラとの共演盤で、Ian Hunterもこういうのをやるんだなぁ、と思ってたんだけどさ…
メンバーをよく見ると
Stage Dollsだし、みたいな。
Ian Hunterもスウェーデンに活路を見いだしたか?とか思っちゃった。
「も」ってのは、ほら、Glenn Hughesとかもそうだしさ。
Stage Dolls

くぅ、懐かしすぎるぞ、これ。
