Mike wrote this song in response to an experience he had. Although he has his own pilot's licence he was being flown to a gig somewhere in Europe, I think Spain, with some other crew. The pilot thought he could get around an oncoming storm, but got caught up in it. The resulting trip left everybody a wreck as they thought they were going to die. After landing they found out that they had been the only plane in the air and everything else was grounded. Mike wasn't too happy with the pilot.
