Believe it or not, it can be hard to get five guys onstage. We lost Milan Williams, the keyboard player, to cancer. Over the years, I’ve experimented with guys. I said, “Let me just get three of them.” We’ve done a couple of shows together. But to get the other two, if I could pull that off, I will be the miracle worker of life.

You have to pull away the 30 years of whatever you are thinking about each other. You have to forget about it and just come on stage.

Then again, when you’re in a group, you have to understand it’s hard to break those old guys. No one cares anymore about whatever you were mad at 30 years ago. No one cares. That’s called the group thing. Every group experiences that stupid kind of paralysis.

This is what happens all too often to groups, but it sounds like all of these dudes have love for each other when it really gets down to it. It’s just like a relationship that ended badly- guards are now up on both sides because no one wants to make themselves vulnerable to getting hurt again. The good thing is that all of the members are able to continue to live life healthy and making a living doing what they are most passionate about. Until they reunite (if ever) we’ll just keep jammin’ to their classics…
