GF:

"Mark and John have remained very close friends throughout, but this weekend was tough"


wow, that's pretty strong

yes indeed, it seems that the bitterness mood is not only on fans side...

If MK isn't happy with his friend JI going, as implied, I wonder what he thinks about his employee GF?

Or maybe the anger/frustration is on JI's side and MK doesn't give a f**k.

Or maybe Guy gives a f**k as he's fed up with slower and slower working process and endless studio work of Mark in general. And maybe it's their last work together as it will be Mark's last album anyway..

I think the 2nd, MK doesn't give a f**k and the others are frustrated

Kramo: May I know, what was Mark honest reaction, when you gave him to his award from the RRHOF?

GF: best not

Mark is consistent :)

I could see Mk being pissed that RRHOF all of a sudden brough DS back to life in peoples minds. When he clearly has had no interest in a reformation. One could think he'd been interested if this was done in 94-96 but not now and out of nowhere. Why didn't they opt for puttig MK as a solo artist on the ballot?  Is it only his work in Ds thats HOF worthy?   If they'd had done that I could see him participating and even playing, maybe even with John on bass.

Who knows maybe that will be that case for next year  ;D

I doubt very much the HOF will consider MK for even throw away the garbage...

MK went solo in 1996. Correct me if i am wrong but only after 25 years one can be inducted in the RRHOF.  So MK solo will not happen before 2021.

That would be outrageous if they included his solo work and not DS! Maybe it's good or even better but it lacks the reach and impact DS had.

I'm sure he threw it in the trash or something like that. By the way, this seems to suggest that his problem is with the RRHOF, not (only) with ex band members. Otherwise, why the "best not"?

Doesn't exist the folk hall of fame?
