hey, danny, you ve got to stop looking at castles. dude. come on, what s going on here, man? you ve lost it here. really broke a lot of new ground. when he was good he was very good. in my view he spent too much time focusing on things other than music and really sort of being on top of it. his mentality was buddy rich, mick fleetwood, that he should control the band. and i think it wore thin after a while. there was probably some truth to that. we had good management at that point. i really didn t need to be the drummer-manager anymore. leading the band out of the darkness. when we re playing, we re not worrying about business. that s a separate thing. that has its compartment. i really just think business became more important than playing. you don t do business just before the show or during the show, you know, worrying about the deal. you play the [ bleep ] song.
