kept a pretty low profile for the next few years. Apart from a few appearances at a benefit or festivals and a song for the
soundtrack (
featuring
on vocals), the band was inactive. The individual members kept so busy at things like session work, raising kids, making solo albums, and running one of the most successful record labels on the planet that it seemed like
