Scott had the accident in April and if they they picked up touring in June, that's not five months, and I tend to be math-challenged. I thought they started in July, but I may be wrong about that.

Even if you count the laryngitis, that's a couple of more weeks. That's three to FOUR months, tops. The point is that they were on schedule to tour all that time. I doubt he was writing lyrics while doing physical therapy after the accident.

With regard to your comments on &nbsp;"thinking too much" when writing, you are way off base. Rewriting and editing is a big part of most bands' writing process. It's a collaboration. Layne Staley and Jerry Cantrell of Alice In Chains talked about it at length in an interview years ago. &nbsp;

If you are going to make statements, BACK THEM UP with some sort of facts.

And please, dispense with the lame-a** name-calling. It's annoying. </b>


perfect!
where do I sign? :lol:
