The Faces reunited on Monday night at the iconic Royal Albert Hall in London for a one-time charity show with Simply Red front man Mick Huchnall, Kiki Dee and Mel C replacing Rod Stewart – who couldn’t attend – on vocals. Drummer Kenney Jones told Music News Net that Stewart is up for a reunion when he finishes his current commitments to promote an album.

Before we leave, our buddy Goff told us that pro poker player Jeff Shulman – a longtime Phish fan – has been wearing Phish gear throughout the World Series of Poker tournament. Thus far he’s worn a Phish tee, a Trey Anastasio tee and a Phish hoodie. As of last night’s episode, Shulman is still alive in the tournament and appears to be in good position to make the final table.
