kenog Posted September 24, 2010 Share Posted September 24, 2010 Source:- www.gibson.com If Paul Rodgers is going to record solo material and then do a solo tour, fat chance that he'll get back together with Jimmy. I was kind of hoping that they would. Bad Company to Close Shop? Michael Wright| 09.24.2010 In a new interview with the Southwest Times Record, Bad Company singer Paul Rodgers hinted that the band he helped found in 1973 might be nearing the end of the road. "After this Tulsa show, there will be no further plans for Bad Company beyond dates in Japan," said Rodgers. "I'm working on new solo material in the studio, and I've got a solo U.K. tour planned later, so I'm just seeing how it goes." "We aren't saying never - we never want to say never," the 60-year-old singer continued. "We aren't putting Bad Company to bed, as they say, but the band definitely is something that will be placed onto the back burner." When asked about recent rumors about having been asked to replace Steven Tyler in Aerosmith, Rodgers said, "I love Joe Perry; he's a great guitar player up there with the Jimmy Pages and Jeff Becks of the world. And I love Steven, too. He's a fantastic frontman, and stepping into that slot would be a difficult scenario. Those five guys together is (sic) just fantastic." Bad company will play their final scheduled North American tour date at The Joint inside the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Catoosa, Oklahoma on October 7.

And he is right about Joe Perry. He never gets enough credit in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
