I just recieved this in an email from steve himself, regarding the whole Iced Earth saga:
Hello,
Before I answer your question. Perhaps you can answer one for me.
Does it really matter if I'm an asshole or not?
Just wondering.
I mean the album is going to sound great. They're going to replace me with some one good. Life goes on. And I wanted to ask someone, out of a lot of people asking the same question...Does it matter what happened..? Forgive me if I come across as rude, but I've been bombarded lately with this very question, and I honestly thought nobody would care.
In case you're interested, I'm planning on - when I have time to do so properly - to write "my side" of what went down and post it in the news section of my own web site. As much as I'd like to think this is so minor of a deal, I guess I'm obliged to answer to my friends, and fans of the music. So I will, one day, unwillingly, type something that will hopefully get everyone to, as my good friend always states so well - "support the music, not the rumors" !!!
Cheers.
SD
