The Wiggles- not the same?

Greg's gone (it was greg wasn't it?). The new guy is Sam Moran. Will children notice? Does it change anything? I find it so hard to believe 4 guys are so money hungry that they'd replace someone just to try and keep the big bucks rolling in...

They shouldn't break-up just because 1 of them got sick and is no longer able to do the shows. They are a great band. My kids enjoyed them when they were younger.

Yeah, it was Greg. They're not hiding anything from the kids. From what I've heard, they're playing a clip before the shows showing Greg handing the yellow shirt over to Sam. I, personally, think they should retire. I don't think it's about the money, though. The guys love what they do and the kids love them, too.

Sam has been a musician with them (both on videos and in the live concerts) since the get-go. Greg has been in and out of the hospital for the past year with bad hernias. He heals and then when he goes back on tour he gets sick again. They are so not money hungry! For them it was a natural change-over - it could have been Dominic (the trumpet player) just as easily. Greg did not want to go but his health is just not well.

I heard that he was leaving the group but why? I picture the wiggles without him. I went to one of their shows and it was pretty good better then their show on tv.

Well, I had a nice answer planned out for ya, but then I thought what about Blues Clues? That show does pretty darn well, even after Steve left for college and his little brother Joe took over. I wasn't sure how long that would last, but I think it's still going strong. As for the Wiggles, I guess if these guys really love what they're doing, why not keep it going until it's time to hang up their hats? Greg might not be able to keep performing, but do you think he'd want the rest of the guys to give everything up just for him? I don't know.

I don't watch that show, but I've heard of them. Some will and some won't care if it's a different guy.
