I mean groups break up and get back together again all the time. It's no big deal. Everybody is under the impression that once something happens like that, it's permanent and nothing is permanent. Even in the record business. Woody Allen alluded to this idea when he did not show up for his Academy Award one year.
Some people really get off on it.
I hear the music business is not a very nice one. That depends on whom one works with. Along with the real jerks there are some real nice folks. I happen to think that Warner's have some of the nicest people working in the business. Isn't the business a very tightly held monopoly.
