I went to see The Wailers again in Dublin on the 11th
of Feb 09. The band is still going strong, and yes 'Family
Man' is still with them on the bass (he's in his

The band were celebrating the anniversary of the Exodus
album, playing all the songs from it, and then some.
I did get Family Man's autograph on a 'One Love, Peace
Concert' flyer that I got in a book years ago (thanks

They have another new lead singer who had a fairly

which lasted two hours plus. Although I felt let down
by him when he decided to include some lyrics of Tina
Turner's hit 'What's love got to do with it?'. Maybe
someone spiked his Guinness
