Сколько последних интервью Удо ты прочитал? Я - около пяти. А ты, похоже, только тот небольшой отрывочек, что Стурмус привёл. Вот,
учи матчасть. И это только одно из многих...
Цитата:
The same problem that stopped him from being a drummer with Accept back in the day?
Udo: Yes. We had a problem while we did the recording for the album “Rev-Raptor” where we had to stop working for three months as he couldn’t move! He was lying still or visiting the hospital – it was a real nightmare.
At some point he recovered and took part on the “Rev-Raptor” tour which was of course a very long one and it is true that every tour we do is getting longer and longer. He was feeling so much pain that he had to take drugs in order to get by but when you constantly feel in pain you cannot be in a good mood. He was always aggressive and the atmosphere within the band was very bad.
I am quite surprised to hear that as all the clips we have watched of the band performing live portrayed him as a man full of energy. In “Live In Sofia”, this top quality DVD/Blu-ray release of yours, he seems to be integral to its success. It is quite strange to hear you say the things you do about him.
Udo: It is, I know but that’s the way it was. So, after the last show of the “Rev-Raptor” tour I had a conversation with him and told him “Stefan, I think that the best way forward is for you to stop being on tour with us”. He was not really surprised to hear me say that but it was a case of someone having to stop him, you know, and the best thing was for that person to be me.
I mean, I know Stefan since he was eighteen years old. I told him “this is the best thing to do as otherwise we will only be having more and more problems within the band”. It was only after a while that he turned and told me “it was a good thing that you asked me to stop”, especially after I heard that he still had such problems to deal with.”
И кстати, из-за нехватки времени выпнули Игоря, а не Штефана. Игорь работал на радио, играл в кавер группе AC/DC, ему было трудно оставаться в студии больше чем на два дня и т.д. Всё это привело к тому, что Андрей Смирнов прибыл на прослушивание в студию и записал все партии гитар для нового альбома, так как у Игоря "не было времени". Удо ещё юморил, мол "прослушивание Андрея затянулось"

А потом Игорь отказался лететь в Эквадор на концерт и признал, что таки пора ему из группы валить. И тут-то и подтянули Каспери, как второго гитариста.
А отрывок из новости какую-то путаницу создаёт, все другие интервью о другом говорили - Штефан ушёл из-за здоровья, Игорь - из-за проблем со временем и занятостью.
