He was. I am unsure how anyone can see it any other way. I mean she was proud of her work and wanted to give it to him. The polite thing for him to have done is accept or refuse it. Instead, he ignored it, which was rude and purposefully hurtful.

Also, I do not remember La Nicks saying she gave her stuff to anyone she even remotely knew She has had listening parties in different cities, but those often are the record company's thing and it is a common practice.

I don't think Stevie thinks like that, about people being all jealous and mean spirited, so she probably didn't think LB would react that way.

Exactly - I think people just like to ignore that LB is somewhat of a jealous jerk, esp then.

Sense the tone Jason, I was exaggerating. She mentioned a few times a lot of her friends have demo tapes because she hands them out. I think it was in reference to how some of her demos leaked out in the first place.

I asked him if there was any truth in the rumour that Mick and Stevie wanted Chris to play at the last Earls Court concert but that him and Lindsey were against it. And whether there was ever a realistic chance of her doing so.

Not very controversial

I doubt she didn't. You are in a band, make a solo album, and don't give it to your bandmates? Who could do that? Well...

That is a bit of a controversial question. I hope he answers it.

Oh do you think so? Oh well we'll see if he answers.

I also said I'd been daft enough to buy another ticket on the strength of the rumour!

So, LB did not send him a CD. And John's daughter went to LB's show, but John didn't. I don't know what to make of that. Seems odd.

well when you are a musicians... and tour with someone over very long periods of time... it's ok to sort of do your own thing..... i'm sure it's not personal....

Oh, I'm sure it's not. I think in general he's quite content to hang out & do his own thing.
