Igor,

I have no axe to grind concerning how things went down during the 2001 MBP. However, I do take anything said by band members past and present with a grain of salt. Obviously, they have their own interests to support and they are hardly unbiased. I think if you back either side completely (Ken vs Mick), it will bite you on the ass eventually.  In other words, no one's perfect and everyone makes mistakes so I'm sure there is plenty blame to go around for everyone involved. ;-)
