    Didn't Ed go solo? Not sure if he's released anything though.

    Ed's got a solo cd out, it's alright. You are right on the Inxs thing that was silly. I guess this is the new guy, I don't know who he is though.

    That's what happens when you think you're better than your band mates and request a "lead singer bonus" from the promoters. Imagine if Vedder, Weiland or Hetfield did that.

    Well, Weiland may be a bad example.

    Ed is a bad example, too. He gets a bigger cut than the rest of the guys and has for awhile.

    I was not aware of that. But is that something everyone agreed to or something he tried to finagle without the band's knowledge?

    I'm almost positive it's agreed to. I remember the news about that but I don't remember the specifics. If I was in a band i'd have to do it 20% for all 5. But i'm not a rock star so..

    I'd give it a chance, Chris Shinn is a decent singer.

    I like it - Shinn can hang with LIVE songs & write his own.
