Thanks for the anecdotal evidence. It’s so relevant

Congrats on getting such great seats, the meet and greets were a great move by Lindsey I think this time, both for his and the ticketholders sake. Hopefully he will gain a real appreciation of how supported he is despite his firing....I hope this tour is a sellout, a critical success and is cathartic for him in many ways.

Steve you can defend them all you want, I applaud your optimism actually. For me, I just can't anymore and that's on me, completely my choice. I don't expect everyone to feel the same or agree. I just don't think they are in a place where doing anything new or risky is even remotely in their playbook now. I don't believe Lindsey was the sole roadblock or root of all their conflicts. Even with him out of the band, I'd be shocked if they went through the effort to work on new material. Two new folks join the band and they still begin rehearsals two months before their first gig. They're in "good enough" mode if you ask me. No doubt, I bet Mike and Neil would sign onto doing an album, it's actually the rest of them that I think would kill the idea before it ever got off the ground. Yeah, I could be totally wrong too.

Also...it does irk me to think of the likelihood of Mike and Neil being treated like hired guns. They are indeed huge talents and I find it kind of sad that they are going to spend a big chunk of time playing other people's parts and singing other people's songs they have no actual tie to.

Dude,
I was just expressing how little I know about the Finn. One of the reasons that Campbell and Finn were picked was because what they would except as pay. You can bet that both together will be much less the Mr. B. It all works out in the end. More for $tevie. |

Being famous is exactly that - people know you. One by one. Or not, like in this case.

Exactly. The whole notion they are going to "dig into their gothic trunk of lost songs" is nice, but in reality, I don't think it has legs beyond the first month or so. Will wind up being a greatest hits tour, with DDIO, SDMHA, etc thrown in AND adding to the "wound", some of the songs on the greatest hits tour not sounding how the fans expect because they are being covered by 2 guys who didn't write/record/arrange.

Thank you for the education. We all know this isnt the first time that stuff like this has happened and is continually overlooked because of the cliques on this board.
