hey guys.

i just wanted to take a minute to let you know what's going on in
our world. first, let me say that it is true that Adam won't be a
part of future matchbox albums. this is in no way a statement from
us against adam personally, or as a musician. i'm a music fan too,
and i can certainly understand that some of you have problems with
this (my mother-in-law still thinks ron wood is "the new guy") i
just hope that you can all understand that we too carry a heavy
heart over the prospect of changing our family around, but sometimes
it's hard for five points of view to co-exist for too terribly long
and this is the only way that we could see fit to carry on. more
later. be good to each other. r.t.
