Whatevs! We all know the Sarge doesn't need practice.
With the Force as his ally he did battle with the Dark Lord. And he showed the measure of a true Jedi at a place called "The Death Star" where hope for the Galaxy was reborn. May all who struggle against tyranny hold his memory in their hearts

Did I mention seeing him at The Coral weekend before last in Liverpool? Mr Kook said he looks like Ricky Tomlinson with the beard.
Every word is like an unnecessary stain on silence and nothingness.

I would also point out, bf, that as I live thousands of miles and an ocean away from the band members, this is the closest I will get to seeing Will playing his guitar live for the foreseeable future.

There's probably enough Youpubes footage out there now to give you your own personal virtual concert in your living room without having to see him or them in the flesh. By the power of the intertubes, I have the power, etc.

I'm pretty sure this Crocodiles/HUH tour will find its way to an Indian Casino near you.

Indian Casino? Do they have poppadoms instead of chips?

Solo practice and band rehearsal are two different things. I recall an older interview where Mac was irritated by the fact that outside of rehearsals, Will never really touches his guitar

Mac should mind his own business.

I don't know what's more depressing--not having the chance to see them at all, or seeing them in a room next to nickel slot machines being plugged by destitute Social Security recipients.

So how does Mac "solo practice"?

And gogp, I have watched many a clip on YouTube. But Will is practicing for the as-yet-unperformed "Croc/HUH" extravaganza! It's exciting! WHOOOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
