Does the first time really count? It's never really been portrayed that they sacked him/he left unwillingly. He didn't want to tour at all and according to him nearly lost his sanity making the Tango album so he basically had to leave. It's not like they kicked him out while he still actively wanted to be in the band. Isn't that why Stevie 'attacked' him (her words) and that ugly fight happened? She got so mad that he was leaving even though I read once that she claimed she knew he had one foot out the door for a long time because he was so unhappy.
