It is with a heavy heart that I must tell every one who has supported NOT FRAGILE over the past 8 years, that I am retiring from the band.

I do not come to this decision easily. In fact, it is one of the hardest things I have ever had to do. This band has been my life and my total identity for so long that it will take me some time to break free completely from it. Maybe I never will. That is not a bad thing.

I would like to thank ALL of the members of this band, past and present for their devotion and dedication to keeping the wheels turning in a Rockin Band. I would especially like to thank Scott Rausa, the best drummer I have ever had the pleasure to rock with. We hardly ever saw eye to eye on anything, but as a rhythm section, WE WERE THE SHIT!!

Please, do not read anything into this, except what it is. I am retiring for personal reasons. I still have things to accomplish in my life that will never happen as long as I’m in a road band.

Once again, I thank you all and wish you well. I really do hope to see you soon!
