No, I'm not. But I stand by my original comment. It appears Buck & Allen had
more of a creative and inspirational drive than Eric. Which is why the thought
of them squandering away any artistic pursuit whilst retreading the same old
songs seems all the more tragic. Moreso if the inspiration has evaporated
completely.

I know. I skimmed quickly through the last log, hence my comments about
stupid questions etc.

Yes, actually I was being a tad sarcastic about the 'masterplan'. Its clear
there isn't one. If that's the case then maybe they should just pack it in
completely. I'm just saying this apparent whoring of the band to the
nostalgia circuit should be unpalatable to any member of the band who still
considers they have artistic worth.
