As someone who was a "career" musician for a long time... I can say without a doubt that every single musical project I ever became a part of changed the relationships within it in an irrevocable fashion.

Not always in a bad way, but certainly many times over in a bad way.

I cannot imagine getting to where the boys have gotten and having been doing it together for so long, there can only be frustrations many times over while doing so.

Regardless, it always seems to me that they've managed to get past differences and continue to make what is most certainly some of the most influential music in my lifetime.
