Well...Cozy Powell took the drummer’s seat for a reunion tour in 1985. I think Carl Palmer wasn’t interested.

I saw that tour. ‘87 or ‘88? It was the 5150 tour. I remember Bachman Turner Overweight opening and we got so close to the front. Halfway into VH’s show we had to throw a buddy over the security rail at the stage before he passed out

This might jog your memory.

Sounds like there was some tit for tat going on for a while. Dave sounds like he set up Wolfgang to be a bad guy by giving the chick’s money when he knew Wolfgang would boot ymthem.

>>>David is too old to be so dramatic.>>>

Good point. The older we get, the more we hopefully mature and realize our mortality and destiny. When Kobe was killed, I read that Shaq called every person he had a conflict with to resolve it. It really hit him because he and Kobe had a tenuous relatiohship for many years and now Kobe was gone forever.

Life is no game and the stakes are high. I try to avoid conflict even here and as a member of the religion of Jesus, my savior, I try to follow his example. He knew Judas would betray him but treated him with grace and dignity to the end. Bitterness kills us more than the one we are bitter towards.

I seem to remember somewhere that in the last few years Roth was employed as a paramedic in LA riding roughshod on an ambulance. I think the narcan the ambulance was carrying was primarily his own private stock
