"Four years of touring after Mad Mad World and the kind of chaos that
rock 'n' roll success brings left my home life - or lack of it - in
tatters. It was all a blur. Kathy and I separated for the better part of
a year, and Ragged Ass Road and specifically the song 'I Wish You
Well', addressed all of that... kind of like Lennon's lost weekend
period. A big part of why we're here is to learn." - Tom Cochrane
