Oh without a doubt - I would never suggest he was a bad husband. I mean he had his problems in the 80's, and I'm sure he did things then that were a bit wrong, but we should remember that he was being dumped on from a great height by everyone close to him - how would anyone react. We don't know anything about the divorce, and anyway if he is still working with Les then it must have been amicable.
I was saying on the chat room on Sunday that credit must go to Pearl, as it can't be easy touring with your Mum's estranged husband, who like you say isn't even your biological Dad (although I am sure she sees him as her real dad). But also we must credit Meat - both Pearl and Amanda have been looked after 110% by Meat (and Les I'm sure), and there are not many rock stars who could put their daughter on stage with them. Mind there are not many rock stars daughters who can sing like Pearl. He should be very proud, and is I'm sure.
Meat is still a legend as far as I'm concerned, it just tarnishes the fantasy a little - they seemed the perfect couple. Lets wish everyone concerned all the best tho.
