The Mish's website regarding the erstwhile ex-Sisters bassist:
A NOTE FROM WAYNE
During the course of the last week or so there has been a lot of speculation, conjecture, and accusation surrounding recent events in South America concerning The m****n. I would like to take this opportunity to try and clarify the situation for you. We, AS A BAND, arrived in Sao Paulo just two weeks ago and fully intended to complete the South American tour, AS A BAND. We played 4 very enjoyable shows in Brazil including one which was recorded and filmed for possible future release. On Wednesday night, with us due to leave for Cordova, Argentina, very early the next morning, Craig announced that he wanted to leave the band and return home to England, for personal reasons.
The rest of the traveling party held a late night meeting in my hotel room, and being unable to replace Craig at such short notice, we decided on a course of action that we felt would limit the damage, both to us and the promoters, and a course of action that would also limit the disappointment of fans eagerly awaiting the shows in Argentina, Chile, and Peru.
.................
As for the future of the band, well, I’ve always contended that we don’t have any long term plans and that hasn’t changed. Craig’s departure will be felt deeply and after 18 years or so of him and I working together I would like to say that I wish him all the best and I love him and will miss him. The European tour that starts next week in Spain is going ahead with a temporary replacement for Craig. We will also play all other sceduled European festival shows over the summer.
Fair play Wayne... Looks like the boy has "done a runner"!
Hmmm, does that mean he's free to do some dates with The Sisters?

Haha!
Now all we needs is for Wayne to realise the error of his ways, for Mark Pearman to take up his old moniker and realise the error of HIS ways...and for the Doktor to get its balls (and bass) back...
...and we may finally get to hear the 'proper' First And Last And Always riff again...instead of that Sisters Lite s**t we've been having to suffer over the past few years...
In my fookin' dreams...
