Great to see the UK tour later this year. I know its not everyone's cup of tea but it will make a lot of people happy. The funny thing like this line up or not, I think it's the longest same personal line up in the bands history.

The funny thing like this line up or not, I think it's the longest same personal line up in the bands history. It matters not how long it has lasted. The truth is it is not The Hollies, not by a long shot. It is a weak cover band doing Hollies songs, that’s all. It is not even a decent tribute band, that’s how far away the current bunch is from living up to the band’s legacy. I think they only cheapen it. Better to listen to the old records and watch the vintage videos and revel in the band when they were truly thrilling.

Part of me has to agree, it was never really the Hollies after Vic Steele left.

Gee you do make a good point about cover bands, gee so many around now, what surprises me that they have still got followings. Just picking 2, Smokie has no original members, just got a new lead singer Peter Lincoln, my second example is Sweet, only Andy left and up to recently Peter Lincoln was their lead singer, if you need a new lead singer he seems to be the go to man. Gee you got me going, we have two HH groups, one lead by Peter Noone, other lead by the original drummer. Queen only has two members left. Funny I saw Queen just pre Covid and thought they were great, my mate who is also a Queen fan thought they were shocking, not sure who was right, they were still Queen or were they a cover band.

Not even an acknowledgement that it's been 60 years. I guess it would make people more apt to ask "any original members?" This way it's just business as usual, focus on the hits and not the band.

Love me do, no Ringo, one of the better cover Bands. John Lennon use to say the Beatles were at their best in the Hamburg days,,,pre Ringo. So you and I agree on one thing, that’s rare for us my friend, the Beatles weren’t the Beatles after Pete got the flick.
