It IS sad :sadyep:


Here's the bulletin I got from them over Myspace;

"we know there are rumors floating around about the future of as cities burn, so we wanted to clear things up.

tj is getting married this fall, and has decided to settle down, and begin life off of the road with his wife. he encouraged us to replace him, and continue with someone new in his place, but we have all decided that this band would not be the same without him. as cities burn was built on the personalities, work, and ideals of the five of us, and simply replacing a member would leave a void that would be impossible to fill. so we, as a band, have decided to end as cities burn.

as cities burn, the fans, and the times that weve all had over the past 4 years have been the most incredible experiences of our lives. we have cherished every moment, playing night after night in small towns, to small crowds, to the massive shows weve been able to share with you all over the past year. we are humbled by the love and friendships that weve been so blessed to share with each of you, and owe everything this band has become to the people that have believed in what we do. we hope that some of the ideas upon which this band was based will live on, that each of you will be encouraged, and know that you are loved. what an amazing time weve had, we owe the greatest times of our lives to each of you. thank you all for everything.

we are so thankful that this summer well have a chance to come to many of the cities that weve played over the past 4 years, and say goodbye to the friends weve made along the way. we hope that youll come out, sing along and hangout one last time. we love you all more than you know, and well see you soon.

love,
tj, cody, colin, aaron, and pascal.


(we will still be on the first two weeks of warped tour this summer, and will still be doing our final headlining tour through july and august. our official last show will be at the house of blues in new orleans on august 19, 2006.)"

[rockerclb]

no worries (myspace.com/ascitiesburn) the band said the decision was made a little too soon and that not only will they be stickin around for awhile but A NEW RECORD IS ON THE WAY!!!! so that's pretty much the greatest news ever!

[Adam K]

yeah I know I read it on their website the other day that they're stayin' together. That's just awesome. Can't wait for the new album.

That's too bad, they were an excellent band. At least they went out on a terrific CD.

The lead screamer stepped down. I read it on TVU news.
I don't know if they finished their album or not.
