I agree that this is a smoke screen.   There were rumors Bones was down for a few months but I don't remember which time period.  Pete was probably seen at the studio doing his vocal overdubs and a solo album was a convenient excuse.

I think he will surround himself with spectacular supporting musicians.
 
He will have some Kiwi dude on bass, guitar player with a hat, crazy drummer with a crooked leg and the other guitarist, well he doesn’t say much but makes up for that with ball tearing riffs in a machine gun stance.
 
My 2 cents worth is that this solo album thing is a huge smoke screen for a new MO album.  That is my gut feeling.  A few things which have been happening in the last year to 18 months just don’t make sense to me.
 
I am a suspicious person by nature and think of all possibilities and my theory about the smoke screen is the only one which adds up for me.
 
I could well be wrong (It does happen sometimes)  but let’s hope I am right.

I hate to say this out loud, but a solo album does not interest me much. Unless he is able to surround himself with spectacular supporting musicians or cool guest appearances, I cannot imagine great results.  Hopefully I will be proven wrong.
