I am one of those people with a quick temper, but no one knows it because I learned early in life that it's always best to ruminate on a response before you put it out there. The theory that it's good to "get it out in the open" is not something I agree with. Once something is said, it can't be taken back. That goes for arguments with husbands as well as disagreements with friends and family. Not with hubby, but with others, I will sit down and write a scathing letter, let it sit, then read it and reconsider the next day. I have NEVER sent one, but it makes me feel better to get it out on paper. What was the time diferential between the Lisa tweet and the Hunty tweet? Just curious. Hours

OMG. I'm crying along with Aiden. What a wonderful surprise for this young man from Adam. I loved how he only picks up the cd from the edges as to not smear any of the words.

I hear you, HSM, but this is between Adam and Monte, IMO. Yeah, there's friendship involved here, but it's business. Business. No one, and I mean no one, should be expected to not do what will further his own career. No one can tell me that if Monte's own solo career took off like a rocket, that he wouldn't pursue that, and leave Adam to find another guitarist. And seems that Adam would understand that. I'd be willing to bet that Monte, deep down, understands that too. Maybe Lisa doesn't, but that's another story, lol.

Bottom line is I am here for Adam. I will support his friends if they have a product that I like, but I don't feel that I owe any debt to them. ^^^^THIS^^^^ And the thing is, is that I personally don't like Monte's 'product'. Yes, i think he is an awesome guitar player and he was an integral part of the dynamic of the GNT, but I have never been a fan of the CV stuff. I can remember kinda wincing when Monte said he would be submitting songs for #2 and thinking ooh forgive me, but I hope they don't make it on. Adam has already fast forwarded Monte's career more in the last year than Madonna did in ten. It has often crossed my mind in this time and wondered how many of Madonna's fans even know who her guitarist's name is? and they probably don't care for that matter. I still love Monte as part of the glamily and do wish him all the best in his personal career as well, but the rest of the steps on the ladder upwards need to be taken by him - if he is hungry enough. IMO & YMMV ^^ AND THIS I "bought" a signed poster from Monte for his kickstart project - just to support him. Not interested in his music. I like seeing he and Adam together, and I hope they remain freinds - but it's all about Adam for me.

Oh I agree, but at the same time (playing a bit of devil's advocate here), I also feel for Monte. Monty has worked for even more years than Adam, and what has that gotten him? YEARS of backing Madonna hasn't given him much, if any, name recognition and it hasn't made him rich. Backing Adam has given him more name recognition, but any profits on the tour go to Adam. Monty's a contractor. The Citizen Vein stuff is a PARTNERSHIP. Him and Adam. 50/50. Both for the writing and for the performing. Anything they write together for Adam #2 is a partnership. Equal profits for songwriting. If Adam doesn't select Monty's songs, or doesn't want to release Citizen Vein material, Monty can't get any credit or profits. He's just back to being a contractor. No matter how much he may love Adam as a friend, that situation must chafe. Monte is forced to watch the fruits of his labor and creativity swing on the decisions of someone else. Monty can't push anything without Adam. And Adam isn't likely to make decisions based on Monty's desires. If I was Monty's wife, watching my husband's disappointment, I'd probably be frustrated and disappointed too. That said, expressing that frustration on Twitter....bad move. I hear you, HSM, but this is between Adam and Monte, IMO. Yeah, there's friendship involved here, but it's business. Business. No one, and I mean no one, should be expected to not do what will further his own career. No one can tell me that if Monte's own solo career took off like a rocket, that he wouldn't pursue that, and leave Adam to find another guitarist. And seems that Adam would understand that. I'd be willing to bet that Monte, deep down, understands that too. Maybe Lisa doesn't, but that's another story, lol. [wry grin] Ain't disagreeing with you. Just making a guess where the chafing is coming from and why Lisa is expressing frustrations and hurt over Adam/Monty's relations.

Latest Twitrumor -- Adam dropped Monte for Slash. No source for this at all. YES!! I love Monte and he seems like a nice man but YES!! ;D How about throwing another name out like Orianthi? She's on the same label and isn't doing anything at the moment. Excellent guitarist too and has the cred. Fun to speculate.
