Things change

I don’t get heckler fans that write to say, basically, that they do not accept Lovespirals and want Love Spirals Downward to return. I mean, how do they think Ryan is going to react? “Oh, they’re right. I better try to record another album like Idylls now.” I suppose these same people hassle Robin Guthrie about Cocteau Twins? Bands can’t remain static forever. People change and move on. Band members grow apart and lose interest. Things change. A decade is a long time for a little indie band to stick together, really. The bands that stay together longest are the ones who attain great popular success, and even those don’t always make it. Like Pink Floyd. They had to go through several different variations to get through their 30 years. I can hardly believe that Roger has rejoined the others for this special gig they just announced. Hopefully it will turn out better than the Cocteau Twins reunion that was supposed to go down earlier this year…
