Why?

Because he's the only one talking? I can tell you right now there are some "non-facts" in that interview and perhaps it is time to straighten the record.

According to Luke, he asked for more money, because he didn't like the way things were in TOTO. It was his escape plan.
I believe Luke's story over Bobby's. However, it's good to see Bobby finally standing up for himself. I also don't believe the band re-formed because Bobby called a meeting.

I love Bobby and Luke! Can't we all just get along?

I'm glad he's working on new music, maybe that will get him away from the Toto covers a bit. Although he's been working on a solo album supposedly for a decade now, so who knows.

I'm not taking sides though. I love both the guys, and like I've said many times before I wish they could just bury the hatchet for the sake of the anniversary and the fans.


Same here. Not taking sides, love me both.

I beg to differ. There's a few threads on this very board were Luke isn't shy about expressing his opinion of Kimball.


Unless he's holding back. :-)

I wish they got along better. Seems like they've always had this tenuous relationship.

From what I can gather it went sour during the making of Isolation, and despite Kimball's return to the band for Mindfields, things still didn't improve. That's how it looks to me.


He can say nice stuff about Bobby

ChickenStu wrote:Nice interview - but when it's dated is very telling. FIB had just been released to rave reviews. Not only is he nice about Kimball, but he's also nice about Frontiers records.
All the bad stuff about Kimball and Frontiers started during the band's two year split, and before the reformation with Williams on lead singing duties and the legal dispute with Frontiers that prevents them from doing any new material. All that took place AFTER this interview...


Yes, but that wasn't the point. Only that he can say nice stuff about Bobby.
