I'm not worried. Still have dedicated musicians that are committed to holding the integrity of the music. https://t.co/tDIUDCsYrO

He has a good job. Paid quite well. Has enough money to resign properly and with all visas in his passport he can travel anywhere in the world. So that’s not an excuse. https://t.co/WdQcGgN4dE
