Modern Day Escape breaks up but doesn't tell drummer

Just hours ago Orlando, FL hard rock/metal band Modern Day Escape announced that they were disbanding indefinitely. Here was their statement:

"Since 2006 MDE has written 4 killer rock albums, met some great people, played some amazing venues, traveled different countries, shared the stage with some amazing bands and had some of the most die hard fans a band could ask for, we can not be thankful enough for all the memories and good times.

"But all good things must come to a PAUSE.

"We regret to inform our fans we will be taking an official hiatus from the music industry as the group Modern Day Escape until further notice."

Unfortunately, the band neglected to tell poor drummer Sandra Alvarenga, who quickly took to the band's Facebook to vent:

Modern Day Escape Sandra Alva

She also had a bunch to say on Twitter, including this:
Why do drummers always get the short end of the stick? Get it?! The drumstick?!? I'll be here all week, folks.

4 albums and still no one has ever heard of you. Change the hiatus to a breakup.

anonymous posted 34 minutes ago umm....Sandra is actually a dude. Now THAT should be the biggest news. Went to the Twitter handle, and I'm actually having trouble determining if it is indeed a girl or a guy.

Alex Arnold, you should've mentioned ex-Black Veil Brides for more hits you greedy swine.

Modern Day Escape existed but never told anyone who cared.

Modern Day Escape is War.

I think Dillinger's escape plan is better.

OK um how about you all go fck yourselves. They are a VERY WELL KNOWN BAND unlike any band you jerks are in. What just because they aren't "heavy metal" that doesn't mean shit. They make great music and have a huge fan base. You want to criticize something, try the government or something. Your all a bunch of goddamn idiots!!!

anonymous 11/30/2014 8:16:09 AM

anonymous 12/22/2014 12:42:11 PM

Sandra is indeed a girl, and she used to be a member of Black Veil Brides. It was only for one album and the she quit to join whoever these people are...

Sandra is actually a GIRL! Everyone saying she is a guy is wrong! If you look in her photos her bodybtype is different than a guys'! I should know I'm a girl! A guys' body is way more different than a girls'! So fck off if your about to say she is a guy! She is a GIRL! Goodbye.
