That's all

I've noticed over the years, dimejinky99, that your posts have become increasingly stupid and provocative. Five years ago you were much less odious and could actually hold a conversation with your peers without trying to outrage. Have there been parallels in your real life or is this entirely an internet schtick?

Ive been hoping for a name change to Darth Odious. Or something sinister. Contrarian.

I wouldn't be surprised if 2015 is a PJ side project year with maybe a recording session therefore leaving SG to record and tour their next album. 2016 will be the next year for PJ album/tour if we're lucky. This will be a 3-4 yr cycle.

Also, Matt will still be raking in money from those SG shows as he's a part of that company. The stand in drummer will be paid for a months work (around $50-100k I'd assume depending on the amount of shows and time frame.)

This is actually what I was thinking, too. I really can't imagine SG having that many tours dates in 2014 besides a few festivals here and there. Having just released a new album, it's only fair that his talents go to PJ for the better part of the new year. He's still a part of SG, which I take to mean that any studio work on a new album will most definitely include him on the kit. Agree though that I wouldn't expect any new SG till late 2015, and new PJ at some point in 2016 (optimistically speaking).

I hate to see him not playing with SG, too, but it's totally understandable--I mean I'm sure the guy could use a break by now.
