Irony MP. Its a bitch isnt it. ALL musicians, from the greatest all have influences and things that catch their ear. SHIT, how much have your favorite bands influnced you and your music. I think we all know who they are. It has been evident for the past 20 years. But you know what, IMHO, thats cool. I would be honored as a musician that I had influence and had another musician say, WOW, that shit is cool, maybe we can try something like that. Shit, most musicians have been influenced from Beethoven to friggin Chick Corea.
I have the upmost respect for Mike for over 20+ years. I respect part of his most recent reply and am happy for him that he is in a good place personally. Truthfully I mean that. But again, sometimes, the less said the better. We ALL have opinions, and we all know what they say about opinions. But I have to be honest, at this point Mike, take the high road. To be honest, I have not heard the current members of DT, talking trash about MP's current projects (unless I have missed something). Current members of DT for the most part have not taken digs at MP. At least on public forums. Again Mike, I have had the UPMOST RESPECT for you, but I gotta be honest, you said you have moved on, and for that I wish you the best. But stop it with the digs. Its blatant and obvious.
Happy Hollidaze!
