I'm one of those Lindsey fans who does think his guitar playing is one of the most breathtaking sounds ever, but I also like Mick. He's strange and sort of uncouth, but that's part of the appeal.

I actually didn't make any statements about Mick liking Rick over Lindsey, so I don't have any links to anywhere Mick made any statement like that. That was somebody else. Sorry.
I don't have any issue with Lindsey at all. I think he's a fantastic guitar player. His and Rick's styles are totally different and I like them both. This for me isn't about who's the better guitar player or performer. It's about bashing a guy and laying blame at is feet for something that he does not have 100% control over. He's part of a band and if the rest of the band doesn't want to tour then he can't force them.
Basically I just took exception to a comment by another member saying Mick was the one trying to rip us all off on this tour. I didn't think it was fair, had seen several other posts by other people laying some of this type of thing on Mick and decided to speak my mind.
