And so it was just like, unplanned.

completely unplanned.

Life just sometimes happens.

And then what do you do?

So that was kind of the scenario, because I think I love Bruce, and I think he might feel like I was out to get him.

I've heard that from people, that there's a feeling there.

And it's just not the case at all.

I hold no ill feelings toward him.

It just became an impossible situation where it's always been my job, I felt,

especially since Gary left.

I remember the day that I was either going to go and do a solo album or stick with REO Speedwagon.

I was standing with John Barrack and John said, well, if you're going to end the band, I guess we got to empty the lockers, sell the equipment.

And it was like the ice water thing where they pour ice water on your head.

I was just like, wait, what?

That just blew my mind.

And I thought at that moment, I haven't really given this my all yet.

Because before it was Gary and I, and then the band, of course, Alan and Neil and Bruce were all part of it.

But Gary and I were sitting in the front seat of the roller coaster, you know?

And, um, so I felt it was my job to continue to keep REO Speedwagon moving forward.

My relationship with Tommy Shaw and our relationship with Styx helped that because Tommy felt the same way about Styx.
