Why did Joe Preston leave the Melvins?

[Brian Walsby]

ha ha ha. Well, since I just can't imagine any of the people acting like they are in fact who they are (and posting on here under those names), I think I could call bullshit on all of this since I actually know (or have known) all of these people in question.
You see, I have known these guys since like '86. I have been freinds with them for all of this time, so I suppose I could say that I know what the deal is.
The whole problem is, it is no one's business what happened. DO you really think they are going to come on here and VOLUNTEER a bunch of gossip? GImme a break.

Joe was, next to me, their biggest fan in them old days, where everybody hated them and they cleared rooms constantly. Then Joe got a chance to join his favorite band, and it just didn't work out for all concerned. Imagine joining your favorite band for a second. It might be kind of weird, huh?
Well, in a nutshell, that is it

Hey brian, I know it's bullshit that's why I pretended to be Dale. There is also no records of Lori Alden Black's OD or Death anywhere. Anybody could read the past post on Lori filled with all sorts of unconfirmed rumours and pretend that they are Joe by dropping a reference here and there.

i heard he got kicked out cause he stole dales tape of macgyver riverdancing on a sea of raisins while reconstructing michael jacksons nose outta a diaper and an egg.

and its not like thats a tape you can buy at 7 eleven, so i can understand why dale got pissed.

Brian posted as a guest as well. Something I've always found funny about Buzz is his near intense dislike of nearly every person he's ever worked with except Dale. He never mentions Lori, but nearly every other bass player the band has had he bags out. I think he would be a difficult man to hold a working relationship with. I'm sure many of the shady people he's interacted with during the melvin's history deserve his bile but sometimes I wonder.
I doubt it was Joe posting before but sometimes I wonder. Buzz has certainly hung a lot of shit on his abilities and personal habits in interviews over the years. I can only expect once the new bass player has landed that Kev will soon start coping the same shit that all the other former bass players have recieived in the press from him.
