interesting. i just read "perfectionism" from that.
and as i remember, the recording of OES was no walk in the park for anyone...maybe it would be different now?

Could it be that the 'silent treatment' was deliberate, to see how Katch

Its a pitty that two of my favourite drummers met MK when he was in the star attitude, and not now that its far more down on earth...

Yes poor Mr Katche.
MK was very strange during OES times I think
Manu is my fave drummer!!! Imagine him live during Calling Elvis. wow.. :lol

He declined the OES Tour
Jeff (RIP) declined the OES tour as well
Danny is away
Pick left
Chad left under mysterious ways

MK seems to have problems with drummers
 ;D

Was thinking the same last night!  They seem to be best described as "disposable," but then he's gone through a lot of other band members in his time too.  I think that says a lot.

Seems fairly clear he could be a bit of a dick back in the day.

Flip side is that he was at his most commercially successful then,  and making what many people here consider his best music...

MK  admitted to as much in the "Seven Ages of Rock" documentary when he states that there were times when he was drinking too much and had his personality "smacked around a bit". He alludes to the fact that the extreme pressure of the lifestyle does funny things to even a well-grounded person such as MK.
