Lionel promises reunion tour

LIONEL RICHIE is to reunite with band The Commodores for a tour, he revealed.

The soul singer, 58, said he wanted to get back together within two years.

He said: “We better do it now, or in the next ten years nobody would
care.”

Richie also said the band must tour before it is too late – after
guitarist MILAN WILLIAMS died two years ago.

Bass player RONALD LA PREAD joined Lionel on stage on his last tour to
perform band hits such as Three Times A Lady.

Grammy winner Richie, who is in Antigua for a music festival, broke away to
launch a solo career in the 1970s.
