[kj] TIME TO SAY GOODBYE

[sade1]

  The Crue do need** to ask the approval of both managements and
both bands, obviously. It 'has to' click with the fans too, or
they won't pay to go see them. 
  My question is more from a commercial, more music-industry
aspect, otherwise, of course: Why not?

**Unless they run their 
  entire operation from 
  beginning to end, and
  not even KJ do that.
