The chronology set forth in the Destiny Rules documentary said it, along with the fact that we got an extended tour -- and a single album.

Maybe, but the length of the tour didn't come up until after the extended battle about the double album.

Sounded like he was promised quite a bit and he was upset that Mick had gone back on his word. He felt that Mick had betrayed him and, worse, Mick was not even acknowledging that he had done so. He felt that Mick had dangled a carrot in front of his face, reeled him in and then taken it away, which led to his whole rant about not having a single ally in the band. He didn't just start pushing for a double album, it was something that he understood (reasonably understood, mistakenly understood, I don't know) he was getting from the outset. Then he wasn't.

I thought the tour had to be extended as payback for earlier venues, when they hadn't sold as many tickets as they were supposed to have sold earlier. However, your gossip jives with what we saw in Destiny Rules. There were 6 additional songs on the album and they were probably paid for by Lindsey. I'm sure he welcomed as much tour money as possible. I often wonder if UTS cost him money out of his own pocket as well.
