It seems to me that the majority of BBs were pretty passive aggressive and seldom expressed their resentment out loud-when they did all finally express their opinions in 1977 the whole band came very close to breaking up
Not only were they often passive in terms of their *public* comments concerning any potential acrimony back then, they could also be pretty passive aggressive to each other behind the scenes. The bit in the David Marks/Stebbins book regarding Dave's 1971 time with the band was pretty intriguing, with both Bruce and Carl being kind of weird about Dave potentially rejoining.
