Although he played on the Dangermen Sessions CD, he left the group just before it was completed. From wikipedia: "Foreman announced his departure from Madness on their website in May 2005 citing 'the petty time consuming bollo*s that goes on in the band. Which is about as diplomatic as I can get.' " They had a replacement guitarist with them. Once again - I couldn't catch his name on the PA. It's still the other 6 original members though. And, Chris continues to post on the Madness official website - so I guess once you're a member, you're a member for life.
