Welcome to our shame spiral...........

Posted: February 23rd, 2005

I tried my best to diffuse the situation, but it got out of hand pretty fast!! There was broken bottles, food flung, spit and bile....... I was just eating my customary "post show bowl of cereal" when all hell broke loose. Al launched into a tirade about his keyboards not being up enough in the mix and Rob started to turn purple and shake. Next thing you know, the whole crew is trying to keep the two of them from their vicious dogfight.

First, Al got in my face talking about some crazy theory - that Rob had paid Steve Young to keep the keyboards "buried" in the mix.... Then Rob countered with some crack about Al's mental stability as he calmly stated his case for the complete removal of rehearsal from our lives... and something else about pizza for 10 straight days....

The whole thing really escalated! There was nothing I could say that would chill the situation. Al made a snide comment about "performance-enhancing drugs" and Rob completely ballistic.

I just happened to be holding a camera ( while eating cereal, I know - stupid! ) and I got so scared that I just squeezed off a bunch of shots as the sh*t went down............

They were both pretty amped up..... I have never seen them do anything like this before. It was over in a matter of a minute or two, with both skulking off into the night somewhere. We have been waiting for hours for them to return.

The last thing Rob said was something to the effect of "Next time he steals my "effing" shoe, I am going to straight up murder his ass".

Send help..............

keyboards are just as much a viable part of rock music as his freaking slap happy bass! I am an artist. my space onstage is directly derived from creative flow! this is not fair!

i know things seem a little unsettling. i don't think the situation is as bleak as it may appear. I am a bit concerned about rob. i do not think he has slept in days. he has been a tad flippant lately, but this is not unusual when we are working on material other than his. he has been really obsessed w. where we get to stand on stage. he keeps making a point of running over & standing uncomfortably close to both chuck & i throughout the shows. i think it's an alpha male territorial thing. he keeps to himself most of the time. rob is very shy & introverted, but lately he has been a bit intense. i will try & talk to him tonight , as we have the night off. perhaps if I corner him & confront him everything will be peachy keen.
otherwise tour has been awesome!
