The band were gonna batter him
cos the band werent on the same scale as him lol
In September 1988, Fish decided to leave Marillion after 7 succcessful years in the most popular British prog band of the eighties and hits like Kayleigh, Lavender, Heart of Lothian and Incommunicado. It didn't take long though before he got together with keyboard player Mickey Simmonds (of Mike Oldfield's backing band) to compose the material for his first solo album.
I think it was due to the pressures of almost constant touring and recording taking its toll.
