Save your click. It's an AI generated video that repeats the last thing that was posted here on the subject.
Anyway, my take won't be popular. I think he's not the type who relishes or has a passion for the rock star lifestyle. And I also think the pressure got to him. After Pride he was heralded as a great guitarist and writer (true on both accounts) and he was also constantly compared to EVH. The pressure built when Big Game and Mane Attraction didn't live up to the sales of Pride. The musical tides were turning which also compounded things for any artist.
One of my main thoughts on that reason is because he hasn't done anything musically all of this time. I think he half heartedly tried a solo thing after the WL split. And a couple of spot things. But that's it. I don't think he wanted to put himself out there in fear he wouldn't live up to what the fans think about him. When in fact we'd have happily taken anything from him.
Before anyone chimes in on the family situation... yes that's obviously admirable and the thing to do. I'm just not sure that was happening for 30 years. Same with the carpel tunnel.
It’s a shame that Mane Attraction never was that popular and White Lion wasn’t bigger. Mane Attraction doesn’t have any skips, in my opinion. Easily one of my favorite hair albums
Agreed. One of my favorites as well. Big sounding album with a heavier feel to it (granted it's White Lion so it's going to have 500 sappy ballads on it).
Reminds me a bit of Pull by Winger. They switched gears from their prior album and gave you that heavier and bigger sound but it didn't reach audiences at that time.
I think your wrong, this is a good video, its only 3 minutes and it keeps the conversation going about White Lion
Ya, don’t waste time with the video. I thought he quit to take care of a sick family member? Not sure where I heard that.
Thats not nice to say, it’s a short video and it allows people to have a conversation about White Lion, keeping the dream alive
It's shite mate
I don’t know. I fucking loved these guys when they broke. Still listen to it. Music is a gift and it can be fleeting.
Is this the same bullshit that was posted the other day?
I think it’s a combination of a lot of things. of Big Game & Mane Attraction not living up to the sales and status of Pride as someone listed above. And I think also, as long as it took and the work he had to put in to get as amazing as he is?! just to get snuffed out by grunge? Yeah I’d probably fucking quit too. I could see the potential bitterness there. And he had to take care of his dad as well. Many reasons
