Below is an announcement from the Pendragon Website (www.pendragon.mu)
***************************************************** We regret to say that the rumours you may have heard are true and that Fudge is no longer in Pendragon. Over the last few years it seems that our paths have been pushing toward different needs from our lives, we don't want to say a huge amount about this because it is going to end up being a great big finger pointing session and right now we are totally committed to getting on with the tour in a positive frame of mind. We wish him well for everything in the future. We are still really very excited about the tour, and we have drafted in whizz kid Joe Crabtree, who has recently worked with David Cross from King Crimson. We look forward to working with Joe and our eyes are now set to a brand new future! Nick, Peter and Clive. ******************************************************** I hear that the opening gig for the tour is now sold out!!!................Still looking forward to that tour!!! P-C |

They were a perfect fit.
 Edit: I hope this is not a catalyst for a breakup of the band!  ------------- http://soundcloud.com/drewagler" rel="nofollow - My soundcloud. Please give feedback if you want! |

Don't worry Stonebeard, I think that the ftrure for Pendragon is strong, I know Nick Barrett is working on a new album, and there seems to be some exciting times ahead for the band.
We should remember that the line p had been steady for nigh on 20 years, and there are not many bands that can claim that! I certainly think that Pendragon have a strength that will overcome this. (ps. check out Joe Crabtree- www.drumsolo.co.uk there are some video clips on his site........I can't wait for that tour to start!!!) P-C |

There is a disease with neoprog legends' drummers - first Paul Cook from IQ, then Fudge Smith.
Let us pray that Ian Mosley would not act so. ------------- yet you still have time! |

20 years, I never realized that.
Well, Pendragon will survive, probably.
