It's the first time I have returned to my roots - like going back to be a trio. The fans really wanted me to go back on stage and do the Supremes music, so I went about trying to make it happen. We'll go on tour in the summer.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
It's been over 15 years since I toured... over 12 years since I did any recording under my own name. I never really intended to take that long of a hiatus.
The band we have now on stage is the band I always wanted to be in.
I haven't appeared on stage in quite a long time and I don't have any immediate plans to do so, but I'm always interested in going back.
I've been with the group since 1965. I will be beginning my fifth year on April ninth this year.
Joining another big time rock band was the last thing I was looking for, but as the tour went on, I really dug playing to a lot of people, the band sounded great, and just being out there again, got me over my depression and so I decided to hop on board.
I learned the songs and played the gigs, and then they called me about a month later. They told me they were like super stoked on me and asked me to join their band.
I've been touring now since about '68.
I have a really good band, and just returned from a short tour in California. It hasn't always gone that well.
I've been on the tour for many, many years. It's time for me to go now, before it's too late.
I could not finish the rest of the tours the band had planned. I was replaced by Matt Cameron. The next years of my life were about recovery, healing, and right living. I never lost the need to create.
