I know what you are saying but it's clear to me that this album of music would have never been created had Mac not left. The direction of the Grey Album indicated that the next album would be more like Candleland, not like Reverberation at all since they were using Mac's songs as a jumping point at that time and would continue to do so just as Evergreen and WAYGTDWYL were.

In Chris Adams' book it said the follow up to the grey album was supposed to be "savage rock & roll"

I'm still waiting.
With the Force as his ally he did battle with the Dark Lord. And he showed the measure of a true Jedi at a place called "The Death Star" where hope for the Galaxy was reborn. May all who struggle against tyranny hold his memory in their hearts

Uh, HELLO! There was a little thing called "Candleland." Next time think before you shoot your mouth off.

I think he had his hands full with the Jake Brockman leftovers.

Ya know what I will add that to the questions!

By the way thanks for all the submissions. I'm organizing them into an interview format and will send them to Noel shortly.

Just an update. I have a few things going on in my personal life (good and bad but mostly good!) that made me put this on the backburner but I should at least have the interview questions sent to Noel by next week.

I just thought I'd let everyone know that I sent the questions to Noel this morning. I'll put the interview up on the site once I get the answers back. I may ask some follow up questions too so I don't when it will happen exactly.

Some suggestions for followup questions:

-"No way! Really?"

-"Why did you respond to every question with a crudely-rendered representation of the male genitalia?"

-"Can you explain what you mean by 'butt-monkey'?"

-"WTF?"
