http://pic.pimg.tw/nosweat0911/4bc84d2bd7db9.jpg 最引人注目的一个内页。 这段故事经过这麽多年本该可以拿来说说笑笑回味一下， 但现在再看，却觉得真他妈心酸啊。 John两次离开的原因几乎相同，对於团体中的责任感到倦怠。 还真是有种毛骨悚然的感觉...XD 2000年在日本Budokan的访问中， 主持人问到距离他们上次到日本相隔8年的时间(应该是说这个组合相隔8年)， Flea还调侃John说：「是啊，上次John太爱这个国家了，所以中途脱团了。」 XDDD https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=64xFnljiAmk 真没想到8年後同样的事情又再次发生啊... 现在看真是哭笑不得。世事真是难预料。 大概就是92年的离团闹得太难看， 去年John的声明中才会特别强调这次是在平和、理解与尊重下的决定。 "I COULD HAVE LIED" J: I was 18 when I joined the band. I was totally off balance. When I quit I was 22 and I just thought everything's over. I needed time to do absolutely nothing - time to have no responsibilities other than to experience life. The resentment I built up against Anthony is real personal stuff. Honestly, I think in his soul he really wanted me to be exactly what I am, but he has certain needs from people that even he has no explanations for. John： 「我18岁加入乐团。我的日子完全失衡。 22岁时我离团，我就是觉得这一切够了。 我需要时间好什麽都不做，需要时间不用负担责任，好好去体验人生。 对Anthony的愤恨、作对完全是冲着他而来的。 老实说，我认为他打从心里希望我可以做我自己， 但他有他自己也无法解释的需求。」 F: There were a few things John was really mad at me about, too. We talked. I had offended him over a bunch of things. He's anti-everything to the point where we're flying to Japan and he's really upset when we get there. Suddenly he announces he can't go on and wants to quit. "Wow! Great timing, dude!" I was going through my own personal shit and was real unhappy myself. I was recovering from divorce, having a hard time dealing with it and couldn't sleep. I didn't think I could make it. Literally it felt the walls were closing in. I was stressed, in a near-panic state all the time, miserable beyond human endurance, ready to collapse. Probably one of the worst times in my life, for sure. Flea： 「John也曾经生过我的气。我们谈过。我曾经冒犯过他几次。 当我们要飞去日本时，他看什麽都不顺眼，即使到了他还是很不爽。 　突然，他宣布他无法继续下去想要退出。『哇！真会挑时间啊。老兄！』 当时我才刚经历过一些私事，也很不开心。 我还在调适离婚的心情，很难受也睡不着。我甚至觉得我熬不过。 好向四周的墙都往我逼近。我压力很大，随时都快要爆炸了， 逼近忍受的极限，几乎要崩溃了。这绝对是我一生中最难熬的时刻。」 C: John just isolated himself. It was just so important for four of us to connect while we play - we're not the fucking Eagles who don't talk to each other at all, not even on stage. This is a gang, a tribe, a big family, a brotherhood. Maybe it's dysfunctional, maybe we differ on things, of course we sometimes get on each other's nerves, but it's still a fuckin' family at the end of it with a whole...(接下页) Chad： 「John把自己封闭起来了。我们四人在演出时保持交流是很重要的。 我们可不是他妈的老鹰合唱团(编按：老鹰躺着也中枪XD)，在台上台下都不交谈的。 这是一个组织，一个团队，一个大家庭，手足之情。 或许有些失调，或许我们观念不同，当然我们有时也让彼此抓狂， 但最终仍然是一个家族...(接下页)」 --
