The true facts are that Mick and Chris knew from the beginning of the album that Lindsey wasn't going on the tour.

Here you go again!! I know you're not a big fan of the quotes, but you are always pulling these miraculous statements out of nowhere and then justifying them by saying that you "heard" this stuff and somehow we are supposed to believe this is any more reliable than using quotes??? Sorry, but at least the quotes present hard evidence, not just hearsay and things collected in the minds of fans over the years. So since you said that you like to judge Stevie or Lindsey by "their own" quotes, how about this quote from Lindsey. I don't see anything in there about him saying he "did not want to go on tour." In fact what I read, from Lindsey, is that he would be willing to go on tour if it came down to that.

(about touring for Tango) As far as the touring goes, I mean we joke about it alot, as far as barracading the doors. I mean, if it really gets down to the point where it really looks like the thing we should do and if its going to be a disapointment to a lot of people, I would certainly be willing to go out and do that."

Yeah, they probably had more than a sneaking suspicion that he didn't want to tour, but he still agreed to tour and then pulled out at the last minute. That was a rotten thing to do. They had every reason to be mad. He should have just bucked up and went on tour and then quit afterwards, no strings attached. And yakity yak and blabity blah. Now, I'm beating the dead horse.
