Thanks very much and yes I've been all clear since 2011 now. I love that whole area and the Weinstrasse villages, ironically I had just given up alcohol before I was diagnosed with cancer and haven't touched it since but I am verypartial to several slices of Zwiebelkuchen, I just drive my wife so she can drink. I think Alan's comment was very inciteful, even back then Rick knew he was living on borrowed time but for someone with his personality retiring and living the quiet life at home would have been torture, he lived for being on stage and being the "rockstar" it was what made him who he was. I know it's a terrible thing to say but in a way his sudden death was a blessing for him, years of forced quiet living would have been unbearable to him, especially if he saw the band carry on touring. Only asking a question here, but do you mean inciting or insightful? Due to the bad blood between various factions in the Quo camp, both could be applicable, however they have very different meanings. incite

"he incited loyal subjects to rebellion" insightful adjective
