  | Hi there
Does anyone have the complete info about the 2012 band?
Beside the usual members (from ever tour)
- Bakithi
- Vincent
- Mark
- Tony
- Andy
We can add
- L.B.M.
- Ray Phiri
- Barney Rachabane
- Thandiswa Mazwai (female Background and Under African Skies)
I guess
- Jamey on percussion
Who on drums?
Any more?

  | Jim Oblon is also in the band but I do not know if there is another drummer. He just posted on his FB page a few minutes ago he was playing in Hyde Park and Europe during July.

  | Bodo, There will be another drummer. Rosie just told me Jim told her he is only playing the first set. Hope it will be Isaac for the Graceland set. |

  | Very interesting, so it is really split in 2 parts and he will play the full album (without All around the world I guess) |

  | Also in London there will be a number of other acts there...
Paul is confirmed to perform with Jimmy Cliff (of course he covered Vietnam last year)
Hugh Masekela is confirmed.
Punch Bros are performing earlier in the day (so could join him like they did in the Autumn leg of last year's tour)
Alison Kraus and Jerry Douglas are also on the bill (both were at the Gershwin award and Jerry has performed on The Boxer many times)
So it could really be a special show. |

  | The ticket is for the whole day, not just Pauls show?
I saw some Bruce Springsteen-Paul Simon Tickets...so I thought it might be only 1 concert then |

  | Yes the ticket is for the whole day but Springsteen is on the Saturday so you'd have to buy a separate ticket for that.
I'm going to see Queen + Adam Lambert at the Hammersmith Apollo on the Saturday night (might be great/might be awful) but that makes it 4 concerts in 4 nights. I can't wait. |

Well nice...Adam Lamber, ouch, that guy does not look like Freddie. |
