Yeah, kinda like Roger Hodgson leaving Supertramp for me...

Tho I keep seeing Roger around Toronto on various shows 'n such--did he just
put up his shingle in the GTA?

So there's a debate for you--people who left 'big bands' and had successful
solo careers-- Roger Plant, Glen Frey, Phil Collins, half the Beatles...

I appreciated the Eagles history--'We'll get back together when hell freezes
over!!'  Well, love that concert tour :)

And then there's my dad, who, when I was young and the Eagles released
'Hotel California', went on and on about how bad they were--bunch of pot
smokin' 'stay away from that crappy music!' tirade.

Now he loves them.  Go figure.

Anyway, just thoughts...
