Agreed, I'll only believe his side of the story if it comes with all the masters of albums that they scrapped, plus an archive of live shows from every era of the band.
I was sort of surprised that Rob responded on Twitter, but I'm more surprised others don't recognize it as a book not endorsed by the band, and then tweet at the band members "look what I bought". It's sort of like asking Rob to autograph all the live show bootlegs I bought on CD in the early 90s.
I think the tweet has since been deleted, but one person then said Barclay was also selling bootleg T-shirts. I thought that was pretty funny. He wrote the definitive history of Canadian music through the 90s with a book forwarded by Gord, wrote many of the pieces in the incredible Maclean's commemorative issue, but to supplement his income sells knockoff T-shirts from a garbage bag outside concert venues.
