“Chad said something to somebody in the crew, and Scott made one of his offside comments to Chad, who said, 'That’s it. I’ve had it.' And of course, within minutes, Frank knew about it and called us to his dressing room for a meeting and said, 'Hey, I’m not gonna put up with this. I don't like rocking the boat. This is a very expensive tour, a very long tour...'” – Ike Willis, 16 August 2009
