Indeed he did. Years ago, they were holding auditions in my area for a new guitarist after Wes Borland left. They asked people to demo stuff they had written, rather than try to play along with their current songs. After auditions wrapped, they didn’t pick anyone and life went on.

No credit or compensation was given to any of them. From that point on, the radio station rightfully blacklisted them.

Watching all the bullshit surrounding this guy for the past decade has been like watching that gif of the box truck speeding towards the post. If we just keep watching, surely it’s going to impact, right?
What band or music group would you not have minded if they didn't have a certain band member?
