I was there that night. It was freaking freezing and I was impressed as hell that the band didn't let the weather prevent them from putting on a good show.

It amazes me that some people can find such despair in a life filled with adoring fans. It has to be the ultimate irony of life.

The first song I ever learned to play was "More Than A Feeling" and til this day after 25 years still is timeless masterpiece. It was certainly Delp's voice and singing that has inspired endless musicians.

It sounds like Delp wanted the Cosmo band with them, and Scholz, who is the founder of Boston, said no, there were probably a LOT of arguments, and it probably left Delp feeling really depressed, and alone.

As his ex-wife said, he would "hurt himself before hurting anyone else". He probably felt overly responsible for the family of Cosmo.

Maybe he should have quit Boston again, toured with his other group with Cosmo? I know that it's easier to look at stressful things when you're not in the stress. He probably couldn't see a way out without hurting the Cosmo family.

So sad.

And yes, More Than A Feeling is one of the greatest rock tunes ever.

I heard from someone close to the situation that Scholtz had actually cancelled the tour 2 weeks ago, and didn't bother to tell anyone.
