Yes, that's all very fair. I haven't met him but I'm sure he's a lovely
bloke in many ways. And you're right in saying he's had numerous other
projects, which I've had no problem supporting- I've been to see his
Fantastic Allstars a few times for example. And one thing he will always
deserve credit for is his role in the old free festivals.

Problem is that none of these other projects allow him to make a good
living apparently, which is why we get this kind of thing happening now.

Anyway I don't think there's any point in speculating further until we have
more facts. The accuracy of what we've been told so far is very
questionable. I think Brock is taking the right approach by keeping quiet,
at least until things are resolved in some way.
