Re: Live radio performance including broken

Scott found himself in several situations he couldn't handle - a majority self inflicted, some not. At this time in his life he looked to the people he thought he could rely on to help him and they ran. Not only did they run but they kicked him when he was down. I found the early AB interviews to be both cowardly and disrespectful.

Mark, Scott and Brian (like his opinion merited any respect) could have said 'no comment' when asked about the break-up or at least replied with a bit more dignity.

Stapp seems to be in a good place in his personal life and going in the right direction so fair play to him. I can't wait for the new AB album and I wish them the best of luck too.

I've already posted this opinion in another thread but I thought his performances were excellent - especially Broken. He will never regain the voice he had in My Own Prison and Human Clay but it does seem to be getting stronger and he's using it more wisely - I think he's realized his limitations.

Take Care

I must be too self reliant to understand or care about who he blames or why.

I CAN LIVE WITH THAT
