Incidentally Rob, I think KK's doing fine in his 'retirement'. He lives about 20 miles up the road from me, and he recently converted part of the grounds of his mansion (Astbury Hall) into a championship-class 18-hole golf course...

I heard about that! You're right, he seems to be enjoying himself. You're also right about Richie being a better player. And it was a relief to see the footage of him live, playing K.K.'s parts faithfully. In fact, it took me a second to realize that it wasn't K.K. when I first saw him. He does seem like a great fit.

 
 
The last time we saw them, on Richie's first tour, everyone was saying after how well he coped with the parts, and how he fitted in so well. The rest of the band even left the stage at one point and gave him a short solo slot all to himself.
