A music critic said he sounded ‘like he is ripping his throat out.’
Some criticized him for his lackluster stage presence.
He barely wrote any of Boston’s material.
Since the band first broke up, he could not seem to decide if he wanted to be in it or not.
One writer described him as looking ‘like he owns a used bookstore.’
