And on SOME songs get Nicky to sing backing more, considering on like ADFL and Tolerate he did do backing. I think the extra guitar is fine, but as I say, I think James could sing certain ones himself.
They should get Sean to do some backing vocals seeing as he's supposed to have done some on the albums - I don't care if it's difficult, I've seen over drummers do it.

Sorry, I didn't really mean that, but, y'know, atleast we know what the vocals sound like

Maybe he just can't play drums and sing at the same time

I wasn't being too serious with my request, but I'd like to think he could do it.

That and wayne can't sing how it's meant to be sung, maybe someone should have sat him down with a cd of slash and burn.
