Scheduling conflicts stemming from Sheehan's solo pursuits also contributed to conflicts surrounding the launch of their new album "Actual Size". He was a founding member of the band and its bass player for 12 years. Band members Eric Martin, Richie Kotzen and Pat Torpey will continue with the Mr. Big promotional efforts for "Actual Size", embarking on a much-anticipated promotional tour of Japan beginning this month. The album's first single "Shine" has just entered Japan's Original Confidence International chart at #3. Future performance plans for the band, in light of Sheehan's departure, are under discussion. =========================================================================== 作者 lpjiang (Argh!) 看板 bass 標題 比利兄的反擊 時間 Sun Aug 26 00:03:55 2001 看來講座時將有一番垃圾大戰可期... Billy's statement < Date: Fri, 24 Aug 2001 14:58:39 EDT > Hi, East West's/Atlantic Records statement is TOTALLY FALSE! It is ABSOLUTELY UNTRUE that I "left" due to "creative differences". It is ABSOLUTELY UNTRUE that any problem was caused by my solo album or any other activities. My solo album was completed in JANUARY---many months before the Mr Big album even began. East West/Atlantic Records has given out a totally false and a complete misrepresentation of the facts. I was fired from Mr Big, and I have the telephone answering message to prove it. Please print this statement and send it out to everyone who received the Atlantic Records press release. Thank you. --
