We know what we're doing in the spring, because the diva's back, Christina's coming back, and for the fall, we've got the Olympics, so I would only tease that yes. there will probably be some familiar faces. As I say, we like to switch it up, so I think there will be some fresh faces too.

I think it's about the right mix, and that's a party I'd love to be invited to if I was in any way musically talented. It's a machine, so finding the right combination would lead us down that path."
