Some of the best parts of Gigaton are when they let Mike go nuts. Like on Take the Long Way or the SBWM bridge.

How long until one of them just says flat out "Lightning Bolt sucked"?
Which is weird, because I remember him saying he was also into doing less leads. That may’ve been two decades ago though.

We’ve hit the part of the pre-album excitement cycle where we all believe what Mike says. Happens every time.

All or None and Half Full are songs where he really shines. The rest never left the impression to me that he was all that essential to the song.

This will be a special guest album. It's the new way for these legacy acts, and Andrew does this on every record. So who will it be. Here's my wish list
Steve Martin
Kenny G
Lindsey Buckingham

Imagine how sad Mike would be if they let Lindsay solo on a few songs.

He’d be sad because he’d be outclassed
