All good things come to an end and so it has with Fishkill. We haven't been getting the numbers we wanted at our shows and it's become harder to get all the equipment together and drag everything out to a venue then go home again in the middle of the night without much to show for our efforts. We've put on some amazing shows, but no one has actually seen them. We have a lot of people linked to us on the Internet, but there doesn't seem to be much support for our live show.

Therefore, it is with a deep remorse that I must now announce the breakup of the band. This project was my dream band, the one I always wanted to play in. Unfortunately, it came a little too late in life and I have many other things in my personal life that are preventing me from putting any more time into this project.

We've had some great times and some very memorable moments, like the time we played a live concert on Old Schoolhouse Radio, the time we went to Philadelphia to compete in the Bodog Battle of the Bands--we met some really nice folks there, too! Then there was our adventure to West Virginia for the 2nd Annual Rockbottom Musicfest. We've had some fun and I personally want to thank all of you who did come to our shows and supported us on the Internet. This project lasted for over four years, even when we were just a studio recording project. It was also your support that got us to the Bodog thing in the first place.

The band's main website site will be deactivated, but I will keep this one up as an "electronic monument" for one of the greatest bands I've ever had the pleasure to play in. If you want, you can still link to us and please, continue to play the music. Obviously, we won't be making any more show announcements, but I don't want to lose all the friends we've made here.

I dont know what's next for me right now. I need to take stock of all my creative abilities and I'm sure I'll think of something. Perhaps I'll pursue selling my songs professionally, maybe I'll record a solo album sometime in the future. It's too soon to say right now. I've also considered more writing projects as well. All of us, including me, will have to wait and see what develops.

I can honestly say that I, as well as the other band members, have come away from this experience with a greater understanding of the music business, marketing, and musicianship. Whatever I do after this, I'm sure the things I've learned while being in the band will help me. After all, life is all about the journey and not the destination. For us, it's been one hell of a ride.
