Hi Greg,
You'd know better being out there.  However he retired he has my
upmost respect.  I just found it amusing that he quit at that moment.
Yeah i would do the same as you, pay off debt and do some cool things
with  the  money, like a kick but video projector and a roadie who
could have their own motel room, touring bus all the bells and
whistles.  But since that is not happenning any time soon I'd better
skidattle to my next show in my  van with 300K  miles on it.
