The Butchies will be no more

The Butchies Rock News

My favorite band, probably of all time, is calling it, well, not quite quits, but a hiatus. Which is pretty similar, except more open ended. In any case, I'm quite sad right now. I've seen this band perform so many times. San Diego, CA in 2000, Louisville, KY in 2000?, Chicago, IL in 2001, Minneapolis, MN in 2001, 2oo2, 2004...and now, never again? I really thought this band would be one that would be around forever. Honestly, I can't see them not being the Butchies. No more albums? No more shows, at least that I can get to? AAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!

However, I understand the need to move on, and let them live their lives. Besides, I can hold out hope for reunion shows and such. Maybe my dream of having a band and opening for them one day can still come true? I'll keep dreaming so it can. At least Kaia is still making music, because I don't know how long I can go without a new Kaia fix! lol

I guess all that's left to say is, Good Luck everyone. I'm sure Kaia will be happier back in her home state, because I know how much I love being back home. I can't wait to hear Mel the drummer slut on some other albums. I still have much to learn from her. And good luck to Al, going back to pursue her PhD after all these years. I remember her mentioning that to me a few years ago at the first Minneapolis show, and I'm proud of her for returning to it. Let this be an example for everyone that you can choose to go different ways, even when things are going well.

Thanks for the tons of happy memories guys. I'll miss you.
