i don't think anyone is saying my chem would be the same without mikey, i think the problem people have with him is that he gets on stage and looks bored out of his fucking mind. he doesn't look like he even wants to be there more than half the time. some people think he lacks any sort of passion in his stage performances. whatever, i agree.
Whenever I've seen Chem Mikey doesn't look disinterested, he looks engrossed in playing, and the last time I saw them I felt kind of proud of him for really getting into it, he was making faces and moving about and once or twice even smiled. There was a time when TBP first came out, and I saw them in Nottingham and he looked out at the crowd kind of like 'wtf?' he' just not the kind of person (or so it seems) that throws themselves about with the same energy as Frank or Ray, and he's not as exuberant as his brother. In all the early performances of Chem that have been taped he looks as self concious and as stoic as ever, I don't think he lacks passion, I think he just shows it in a different way.
But it's cool you know, people have their own perceptions of things and i'm not saying I am right, just that I don't agree.
