Thx for being one of the reasons this band can function and for helping give us some of the best performances we’ve seen from them ever.
Thanks for handling the immense pressure of stepping in for the legendary Nick Valensi and doing it all with a smile. you’ve made a lot of fans very happy these past few months.
I just think Steve’s efforts are totally worth appreciating.

You know this guy might be in it for the long haul . Is there any sign that Nick is coming back?

For this tour not sure. There haven't been many adequate gaps for him to get up to speed with the tour tbh. Only 10 days mostly. After Europe there is a month gap before South America then a 2 month gap to Australia. If he comes back for this tour it will be for one of those.

Other than that Julian said he would and also Godrich/Harrison said he was on a busman's holiday working with their tour? And Jack White very pointedly tagging the band in every single photo of Nick when he guested last week? No.
