But he's convinced Neil won't act on his recent comments about leaving the band to pursue other projects he might not otherwise find time for.
The guitarist tells Ultimate Classic Rock: "Okay, here's my answer: Fat chance. That's a good neutral answer, I think." On the contrary, Mars says fans can expect a new album within the next 18 months, along with the much-vaunted movie version of their book The Dirt. more on this story
