Yeah, you're dead on. Been following them since the Courtney Love days (her 2nd run) when Mosley could no longer keep from passing out due to drugs (Lets call it Narcolepsy). BUT in this one case, there was a super tiny chance the ghost of Burton might of brought Martin out. They were once best friends and roommates and the ONLY reason FnM was invited to play with Metallica/GnR/Rolling Stones/etc... back in the day.slim chance. I think they are done forever with Jim. When they asked him to be a part of the reunion, apparently he asked them to send a contract and thats when Bill knew it was just never gonna happen again. Shit Chuck's been back with them twice so far for a few songs, and Trey played with them in South America when they did the entire King for a Day album, and he left them high and dry and in a tough spot just before touring that album. I just think Jim is, and probably always was, just too far off what the rest of them are all about for it to work in any capacity.
I would have given Mosley coming out on stage about the same chance as Jim Martin in the 90s. Now Patton bows out and lets him sing a few songs here and there when they're in his area. But Martin? Still bitter, I guess. Just one last time Jim, give us War Pigs and Surprise. You're dead!.
edit: A little background for those that don't know...it's a good read if you're a fan of music.
