Quebec Love, the interview wasn't meant to be about David Cook. If you listened to any of Andrew's promos, he made it very clear that it wasn't going to be about David AT ALL. Instead, it was going to be about Andy's music. I'm sure Andy would have been more than willing to discuss David and his role in the Anthemic had Andrew chosen to go that route. But he didn't.
And I think David is included in the list of "real musical buddies" Andy refers to....which would be the "old musicians" that you're referring to. I'm sure that both Andy and Neal would love it if David could join them when and if they perform again as MWK. And for all we know, David would like it too. But David likely doesn't have the time for that. LOL
While I'm not going to hate you for voicing your opinion (because to do so would be ridiculous), I *am* going to disagree with your statement that Andy is egocentric and immature. Have you ever met him? I've met him more than once, and he's far from egocentric. If he were egocentric, I highly doubt he'd have set aside singing lead on THH to sing back-up for David. He'd have thought it was below him. And while I'm on that subject, I actually don't think anyone in David Cook and The Anthemic is egocentric. That's one of the many things I love about them.
