I think the part of him that was doing it to get Mick out of bankruptcy wanted to do as much as possible. He probably probably reluctantly agreed but then the reality hit him that he could not do it. But you are right, he should have been upfront. Chris said in an interview in late 1987 that was what the Little Lies were. They knew he wanted to leave but never came out to declare it. Always very coy. In late spring 1987 there was a national broadcast promoting Tango with all the members. It was on radio stations all over the United States. At the end they asked Lindsey about touring. He gave a very evasive answer which hinted there could be a tour but he did not say "we are hitting the road for a few months." I think he thought he could do it until he couldn't.
