Mick has been using a back up drummer for years. Now I read that Lindsey and Christine aren't always performing live either. Are we seeing the end? |
I definitely think Mick and John would have toured with Chris and Lindsey, but I would guess they weren't invited. This is such a smaller tour than what FM plays, so why split the profit 4 ways when you can split it 2 ways, and then hire backing musicians at a much, much lower fee. Makes sense, I guess.
Does anyone really believe Mick would turn down an opportunity to tour and make a few extra bucks? So there's no doubt in my mind Mick and John weren't invited to participate, but I doubt they took it personally.
