It really makes you wonder if there was any communication going on in this band? Like, if 3 guys are mad at 2 guys, why don't those 3 people SAY something? Lance really makes it seem that he and Joey were left in the dark while the other 3 guys were completely aware of the group's fate.
I didn't get the impression the JC, Chris and Justin were mad at Joey and Lance. I think they just assumed that because of their outside interests such as making movies, they wouldn't object to the group breaking up.

US weekly went out of their way to make Justin look like the bad guy and failed to mention that Chris and JC agreed with him. Would you all have still been so furious with Justin if you'd seen these passages in the beginning?
