oh i like that option. and completely possible. of course John should have called her and discuss with her too, if he was smart.

The fact that none of them, except Stevie, has been absolute in their language says a lot.
yeah i read it that way, legally, since the first time i read their official statement. they wanted him to leave voluntarily and be out. he said no and started fighting it. i think he's still legally a member. but that may not last forever, if they didn't reach some kind of settlement and are still in legal standstill. maybe they did reach a settlement though, since they are going on with the tour, and he was telling fans on Friday he is too with his solo tour.
