Zep Hed Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 A bit unrealistic tbh that a band bringing together the likes of Page and Rodgers would last any longer than it did. Ticket sales weren't great for the second tour; it may have been Chris was out of the loop on the business affairs of the band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He issued a press release in November 1986 that he was leaving The Firm to begin work on a solo album. He once said that touring with Paul was like touring with his grandmother. People can take from that what they will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The record keeps spinning and just lift the needle! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brigante Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 (edited) Yes, true, but that stuff was back in the '70s. According to Andy Fraser, Rodgers was always a punchy bloke even in Free, but by the time of Bad Co. drink, drugs, money and status had basically turned him into an asshole - frequently pulling dick moves and daring anyone to stop him. Paul's only a little bloke, but he was really good at karate and he's from a rough, working class area in the North of England so he had no fear of throwing down - which meant that few people wanted to cross him and he got away with all sorts of havoc. He seems to have been a nasty drunk with a lot of anger, but he came off the drink and drugs at the end of Bad Company and apparently stuck rigidly to the straight and narrow thereafter - which is why touring with him in the mid-'80s was like being out with a 'grandmother', according to Jimmy! Sounds preferable to the mid-'70s version, tbh... Edited January 3, 2023 by Brigante Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
