LOL no it's not the only reason. Assuming that it is is silly
AFL, Paradise, Dead Ringer + + + work well because they are a tandem on stage. Patti has the same improvisation skills that Meat has, which is needed with an entertainer like Meat. She puts the emotion in the song/lyrics that the song needs. She is more than just a vocal addition. SHe is part of those songs.
Aspen, technically a good singer, lacked those skills. And there was hardly any chemistry in their duets. These two blondes -I've seen several video's now- seem to have the same problem. Aspen was vocally stronger than the blonde ladies btw. But that could be because they might have been nervous.
You don't get the 'extra that' in a few months. Patti worked with him for 20 years. That lack of chemistry and thus the lack of emotion WILL be missed for sure. That ruins the image I still have of the LAB tour.
So not looking forward to a LAB show now.
