They need to fly Steven in. He would do in a heartbeat ! Would probably pay for his plane ticket & hotels, lol.

Never gonna happen though ;/

If Frank will have to be replaced, one thing for sure they will have to change up the setlist by cutting some songs out, as whoever will play drums hasn't rehearsed with the band at all.

Get well soon Frank !

I don't think Steven is up for being able to play at that level, go watch videos of his recent shows. It's slower and weaker than before. They'll probably just modify the set to accommodate Frank's playing ability. Not really sure why people think they would call Josh, if that's the case there's 100 other bands that should also call him when they need a sub just because he played on their stuff in the studio way back when.

Not only that, the band also considered him unable to play material more advanced than AFD back in the 1990s.

My prediction based on nothing: No exciting replacement will happen, Frank will push through the set with injured hand. Would be cool though if they got a different drummer - this would open the doors to fill up the set with even more covers :D

Laughing at the idea of Steven playing the sets they have been playing. Well, maybe it would finally dispel the weird infatuation people have with him. 

Hoping for Josh to finally get a show with band. Awesome drummer. 

Steven is still a great player and a lot of issues way back were due to him being impaired by whatever substances he was indulging in at the time.

 

Agree though that's it's not feasible to have him being responsible for full shows at this level.

They could do something similar to what pearl jam did recently when Matt Cameron had covid. Bring Steven back for AFD and use one of the other mentioned names for the rest.

Definitely. I don't thing they would do tho because of the logistics. Easier to just get Josh to come if he is nearby and available.
