The 'they' I was referring to was the band's management and whoever makes these decisions, not the band themselves
They may generate a lot of cash but they seem to operate with an "it'll sell anyway" maxim - quantity over quality every time.
I'll reserve judgement on Cohl's ability as a musician until I see him take the solo on "Gimme Shelter" some night
(God forbid, he's effectively the 5th band member now anyway so its only a matter of time..)
