He said once that he tried to get Lindsey to join the Heartbreakers because he didn't want to be a frontman anymore but Lindsey turned him down.
And Lindsey turned down Tom's offer because he truly loved his FM family. That's what makes all this goddamn mess harder to deal with.

Since Monday I have been wondering what Tom's reaction would have been to his friend's firing.
