As for the pay, what do we know about financial arrangements? They might pay him the same if she came back but instead of doing the main keyboard parts, ask him to take on other stuff in addition to backing keys.
I just think from all I've ever read about him, in his words and others, that he would be totally fine about it. He has other streams of income from other musical jobs and, let's not forget, it's been a huge privilege for him to keep Christine's seat warm these last three tours, but - with great respect to him - that is all he has done.

Your right. I meant absolutely no disrespect to anyone and I'm sorry did you were offended by it. Honestly, I don't think any guy I know would take it well (and by that I don't mean they would get mad or yell, but they would still be upset), even if they did understand why it was happening. I shouldn't have made my statement so broad, because everyone has a different way of looking at things.
