Clearly, Matovina has a financial interest in pushing the Ham/Evans side of things and making it look like he, not Molland, is the real heir to the Badfinger legacy.Giordanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06899541536241206154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18406171.post-1160088298559975302006-10-05T17:44:00.000-05:002006-10-05T17:44:00.000-05:00Sorry spaceman (or maybe Randy).

He put out<BR/>a long-winded post about him a few<BR/>years back accusing Joey of being<BR/>unprofessional, amongst other <BR/>things, but never backed it up<BR/>with any examples, or even giving<BR/>a clue as to what prompted this rant<BR/>of his? He just seemed to say, all<BR/>he ever wanted was to be Badfinger,<BR/>(which was strange, as he didn't <BR/>really know anything about them when he joined). The reality is,<BR/>he was in the band BECAUSE Joey<BR/>brought him in.<BR/> So he ends up dissing Joey, and<BR/>moaning about not being in the<BR/>band anymore, and next thing you<BR/>know, he's playing the Badfinger<BR/>event in England, like he's an<BR/>original. Of course, Joey, being<BR/>an original, is not invited<BR/>because there might be some fallout,<BR/>yet of course Dan's there, who many<BR/>people have a problem with, and<BR/>naturally, he can't just be a silent<BR/>contributor, he has to stand up<BR/>and give a speech!

Matovina represents the Ham estate, so that shouldn't have been much of a problem to get clearances. I believe he did the same for the Evans estate back at that time, too.
