The rehearsals are continuing since weeks, as we can read in an article at njarts.net
Entitled “‘The calm in the storm’: Bernard Fowler, Tim Ries talk about losing their friend, Charlie Watts“, text by Cindy Stagoff there is this passage where Tim Ries is cited:
Mick and Keith and Ronnie are there with Steve Jordan on drums and (keyboardist) Chuck Leavell and (bassist) Darryl Jones,” he said, last week. “They’ve already been rehearsing for a couple of weeks now. So, for us (Ries and Fowler), arriving next week, it’s going to be a shock and weird walking in the room and seeing the drums.
We all will experience weired feelings when the tour finally starts in St. Louis…
Thanks to Peter W, [UC] for pointing that out!
