Probably not.
Rick was a sideman who only had 55 days from the day he joined to opening night. He didn’t expectations from the crowd.
Mike is a legendary guitarist in his own right and was trying to put his own spin on the songs. However, Lindsey’s solos, basic as they are, don’t leave a lot of room for interpretation. That said, BMW, TMATTYD, and “Oh Well” were fine and I liked his R&B touches on “Everywhere.”
As for Billy, he was an associate and a fanboy, so he knew exactly what he was getting into.
