all things must end.

It's been a while since we've communicated any news. we went on a hiatus in late october of last year, hoping to attend to our lives in a way that we've neglected for about five years or so.

living around being in a band has been a great experience; one we'll never regret. logging countless thousands of miles in our van, completing two full-length albums, playing with some of our favorite musicians, sleeping on floors all across the country, & meeting many inspiring people along the way.

we regrouped earlier this year and started writing new material, but eventually realized we couldn't continue to do the band at the same capacity we've kept up for so long. touring on a total d.i.y. basis gets tougher; we have huge respect for bands that roll the dice to get out there.

in the same respect, we'd made a pact early on to never do this at half capacity. we promised that if things started to drag, we'd end it. we had to make good on that promise, so on a friday night in late may, we formally ended the band. in the same pub where we started it some six-and-a-half years earlier. two booths away.

we've become lifelong friends through the years, spending the best times of our lives doing what we love. thanks to everyone that ever came to a show, bought us a drink, let us crash on your floor, and extended us your hearts.

we're going to try to arrange a couple farewell shows in late summer to show our thanks & say goodbye in true form. hopefully we'll be able to pull off some old tunes we haven't played in a while.

well, that makes me sad... but at the same time, it's good to realize when enough is enough and call it quits before you start to suck. i'd love to see you guys do a farewell show at the ottobar... you'll be missed!

Make one of your shows out here in Hollywood, suckahs. It'd probably only cost $9000.00 in gas, but hell, you can crash on my floor and help me to disturb the neighbors.

Please don't make me cry....I don't live up there anymore and can't go see your farewell shows. You are the best non-amazingly famous band I've ever heard. Love you guys and wish you the best with your lives.

No!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! damn dude that really sucks I always liked your guys music. All bands have rough patches, I think you guys should continue to play & you'll get through it, but if you have to stick to a promise then do it, but that sucks man.

You guys rock no matter what. It's great being friends with all you guys, and I wish you all the best. You are four of my favorite people, and I thank you all for the great tunes, the awesome shows, the late nights spent hanging out in pretty much every rock club this town has to offer these past 6 1/2 years.
2IBS lives on!
