MarcO Posted November 27, 2003 Report Share Posted November 27, 2003 from www.thenewdeal.ca A NOTE FROM THE BAND: Hi everyone... We appreciate all of the emails that have been sent to us since we announced our touring hiatus in 2004. It serves to remind us of how important our fans have been since the very beginning of this band. As we mentioned in our recent announcement, it's the band's intention to not tour North America in 2004. This was a decision that came after a great deal of thought and consideration, and is the right thing for the band to do at the moment. We have had an unbelievable 5 years. We've had the privilege to headline over 400 events, have played some massive festivals and have managed to release 7 CDs - five of them independently. And now, we've chosen to take a break. Our latest studio CD, "Gone Gone Gone", was a critical step in the evolution of the band. We're very proud of the CD, and feel that in many ways it's a reflection of what we've learned playing together over the years. It's our intention to further explore our capacities in the studio - both with New Deal projects and others. Nothing we say can adequately express how grateful we are to so many people. To you, our fans who have helped us promote, spread the word and danced mercilessly, we thank you sincerely. To our agents who have worked tirelessly, we owe you a great deal. To the countless promoters who have helped us evolve in the scene, thank you for your support. To our exceptional roadcrew, thanks for being the guys to make it all happen. And to our families, and friends, thanks for understanding why we weren't around so much of the time. We promise to be home on some Friday night soon. We are grateful.

\/\/illy Posted November 27, 2003 Report Share Posted November 27, 2003 Oh oh. That sounds a little like: Sha-na-na-na, sha-na-na-na, hey-hey-hey, good-bye. Damn, I was really looking forward to seeing them. I think they us, their hometown-area fans, one last show! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaggyBalls Posted November 27, 2003 Report Share Posted November 27, 2003 that just said TOURING - not playing shows. they can still paly a show here and there and make some money but take time for themselves and strengthen their spirits, characters, and outlooks on music and life, as well as write more. don't go jumping to any hasty conclusions here.

Drawbar Posted November 27, 2003 Report Share Posted November 27, 2003 I think there is going to be a Gypsy Soul Reunion sometime in the near future. Old School Funk. Sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
