That's crazy they're stepping away though. Wonder why both guitarists are leaving. Too spread out? Differences with Gregg? Burned out on ABB?

I have a feeling that they just want to be able to put more attention on their own bands. ABB, while Derek and Warren are key components, is still Gregg's baby. They don't release new studio material very frequently, and obviously a lot of their live shows are still centered around the original lineup's material, so they may want more time for stuff where they are the creative force. ABB still has a pretty heavy touring schedule so I'm sure it takes a lot of their time away from Mule, TTB, and their solo projects.
