Maybe it's just me, but I wish he would've just honestly said what he thought about the song. If he doesn't like it, so what. Either way, it's irritating to read the same sob story over and over again. It's always all about him, and not the rest of the band. It's like he doesn't even understand where they are coming from at all, he hasn't even pretended to care about their point of view. He sees them as the bad guys, and I know it.
I can't put words into his mouth, and none of us can do anything to make him speak differently, but I just wish that he could come out and admit that he regrets what he did, and that he was wrong. If he didn't regret it, he wouldn't talk about it being painful to hear new DT music.
