I&#8217;ve had a good relationship with the band over the years. Which, I&#8217;m told, is rare. Guitarist Billy Duffy is one of the most laid back dudes you&#8217;ll ever meet. Just goes with the flow. On the other hand, Ian, is very intelligent, and intense. He suffers no fools. I was stoked to see them on their recent &#8220;Electric 13&#8221; tour.\u00a0 The thing that bums me out is&#8230;The band&#8217;s UK record label, owns their back catalog.

It&#8217;s a fantastic record.
