I remember after Adam and I recorded our 4th album together we were listening to a Bad Moon Rising vinyl I snagged online. We set up lawn chairs in a bathtub and listened to it in the bathroom so it would reverberate. He said we should do an album like that but twice as slow, with vocals, mixed with Sisters of Mercy Bass and Polvo meet Bob Brozmon Guitar and record it while driving in a car live where we couldn't hear each other. He said I could play bass and drive plugged into a laptop with head phones. He would ride in the trunk with the same set up. We would both play stuff like on Bad Moon Rising but mix both parts together. Slow it down. Pitch his down and mine up and multi-tap delay it and send it to Thurston. I don't think he'd have suggested such an elaborate scheme it he wrote off the band in any way. He may not have been a fan boy any longer but he wasn't like that with any band. He just wanted to be equal. Why be a fan when you could be a contemporary? Just something about him I always admired.
