Definitely not.
Point well made, and something I hadn't really given fair weight to.
There's just something about his response that rings disingenuous to me. I find it damn near impossible to believe Stevie didn't tell her "him or me" story to Mike first.
I completely agree that this is not creatively ideal for Mike, who has well-earned rock artist chops of his own. I have always been a TPATH fan. (American Girl is my favorite driving song
, loud & fast) It must be hard for him, missing Tom, missing his own band, I'm sure by now he's eager to get back to doing his own thing.
