Also, the last I heard, they had all made up and considered each other friends again — including Darcy. Billy said that he didn't care if they ever played another note of music together again, as long as their personal relationships were repaired, which doesn't sound like a sell-out cashgrab kind of thing to say. It seems like no band that's broken up can get back together and do what they love (yes, while making some money), which is to go on tour, playing the music they made together without everyone on the internet accusing them of selling out. There may have been instances with other bands where it was done primarily to make a paycheck, but I don't think this is an example of that.
Billy said a LOT of shit about James too and he's there. People can change their minds and make up.
