In a playful and excited manner, let’s rewrite the content in a cell:
Oh boy, let me tell you about Brett’s wild journey! In 1985, he claimed he left the band to focus on his “drug career” and explore his passion for engineering. He even worked with tons of cool bands! But in 1994, Brett had a different story. He said he left because of an argument with Jay and his dislike for the record label. However, his bandmates had a different take, calling him a “minor 5th” who cared more about selling records than making them. Jay even said Brett’s departure was the best thing to happen to the band in 15 years! The press release from Atlantic only mentioned Brett’s desire to concentrate on Epitaph, but the truth was much juicier. Brett spilled the beans, revealing that the band was fighting like cats and dogs and he couldn’t handle the charade anymore. He admitted to getting on their nerves too, so it was for the best. But in 2002, with Brett back in the band, he confessed that the argument with Jay was just an excuse. He was overwhelmed by his personal life and relapsed into drugs, leading to the band’s breakup. Brett even admitted to exaggerating rumors about being coerced into signing with Atlantic. He wanted the band to believe in his own company, but he played a role in the decision too. And let’s not forget the survey in 1999, where people were split on whether Brett should return. Some thought he was better than the current guy, while others didn’t like him at all. There were even rumors about him going to jail for shooting h2o! But hey, who’s Mr. Brett anyway?
