How could I forget. They had it going on until Fluffy asked Fenton to start playing a 5 string bass and Fenton refused. I believe that was in 1997. Still, to this day, they refuse to share the stage together. Sad story.

Didn't you hear? They reconciled! They're doing the Herman's Hermits Reunion Tour, sponsered by Crackerbarrel and Purina. dates haven't been announced yet, but they expect to start in the southwest the first week of December.

If I hear anything, I'll let you know.

Oh please do. I hadn't heard about this!
Do you know if Fenton gave in to playing the 5 string or did Fluffy back off his demands? Either way, we as musicians and fans can only benefit from their reconciliation.

FANTASTIC!!!! You are a lucky man. I'm :mrgreen: with envy!
Be sure to pack plenty of Barbecue Vienna Sausage. I know Fluffy was always partial to Barbecue Vienna Sausage.

Fenton now has TWO American Standard 5 string Precision basses that he uses. Fluffy can be VERY persuasive. He' using a few different Tevh 21 devices and running straight into the board.

Fluffy isn't ANY help moving gear, so it works out well.

I returned a text to Fenton and mentioned the sausage, he replied and said Fluffy was all worked up, and happy that you remembered.
