1997 was really the beginning of a grand revision of the band’s history. Bob and Billy were continually glossed over. It’s also when the “Lindsey said he wouldn’t join without Stevie” story started to become embellished. It was very frustrating for longtime fans.

Which shows (in my book) that Bob was not trolling the band for the insane success of The Dance. He wanted royalties of albums that were not overly successful. Good grief what's the most he could have asked for? 500k? And probably would have settled for $300k
You are correct. Good memory, the reunion of 1997 the Stevie story was embellished. I forgot about that.
