Couldn't they have asked, I dunno, anybody from his band, or somebody who actually knew the damn guy? It's not like he died 40 years ago and this is the only band that has a mandolin player.

. Banjo player Winston Marshall made sure to note that Mumford & Sons’ third album will take longer to produce, “a few more years than it took to make Babel.”
Take your time lads, no need to rush these things

At some point in future years this will be the new 'drummer for Gay Dad' closing tag.

The idea of Mumford & Sons "rolling into town" and leaving a path of destruction in their wake is one that I find so beyond hilarious it practically redefines "hilarious" :D

for those that don't follow The Fall thread:
The Fall's Mark E Smith was apparently involved in an altercation with dire banjo wielding troupe Mumford & Sons at an Irish festival earlier this year. In an interview with the Australian magazine Brag Smith complained that The Fall's increasing popularity at festivals means they're forced to meet new bands who are often "ass lickers". Even worse, some of them are Mumford & Sons.
"We were playing a festival in Dublin the other week. There was this other group like, warming up in the next sort of chalet, and they were terrible. I said 'shut them cunts up' and they were still warming up, so I threw a bottle at them. The bands said 'that's the Sons of Mumford' or something, 'they're number five in charts!' I just thought they were a load of retarded Irish folk singers."

Can imagine Smith buying tix to do this every year.
If he wanted to do it every year, he'd have my full blessing.

It's like the story of James McNew buying a friend (or vice versa) front row Beach Boys tickets in the early '90s just to boo Mike Love.

Don't know if this has been mentioned elsewhere, but evidently John C. Reilly is in Mumford-mode these days.
