Actually, I can respect his decision. If his heart is no longer in his music, then by all means, let someone else take over the guitar and play for the fans who spend a lot of money and go to a lot of trouble to go see their band. Nothin worse than some old fartknocker just going thru the motions to get a paycheck.

I do feel, for no actual or motivated reason, very bad about working on a nearby golf course this year. Rather would I be playing Blood Red Skies for a headbanging crowd of 25.000 metalheads from one night to another. Eventually however, it's Downing's choice, respect for that. Thank God James Lipton's still in...

Classic Rock Magazine (from which this item was taken) "had no license to jump in and take what they thought was a cheap scoop out of what Ian thought the situation was."

So all in all: NO.
