Kayo Dot loses members, cancels shows

Kayo Dot has cancelled the remaining dates of their tour as several band members have reportedly quit the group. Here's a statement from the band: "We're really very, very sorry about this but four of our members quit our band last night and we won't be able to finish the last few dates of our tour. We suckily had to cancel our shows in Syracuse and Marlboro and we're still deciding if Toby/Mia/Greg will perform "60 Metonymies" (a chilled out, ambient classical piece that Toby wrote for guitar/acoustic violin) in Somerville, MA on the 10th (with former Kayo Dot drummer Sam Gutterman). Again, we apologize for this and we'll keep you updated on the situation..."

2,000 scenesters are too stoned to remember why this pisses them off.

CONNECT FOUR!

likeatonabricks 11/8/2006 4:12:05 PM

4 members quit...time to scrap it, and go back to the drawing board. Or just do a bunch of drugs...balls in your court now, band with 8 billion members

lifeXinXaXbox 11/8/2006 4:36:46 PM

good band, shitty news.

uselesstrivia 11/8/2006 4:41:25 PM

actually it is very likely the band will go on. Toby and Greg were the main songwriters of the band. everyone else has just been a fill in. i will miss forbes though.

solideogloria 11/8/2006 5:50:57 PM

shit, this sucks alot. I'm sure Kao dot will continue somewhat, if not their current style than more in the vein of toby's solo stuff.

Fur_Beach 11/8/2006 6:30:27 PM

four members quit and they still consider themselves a band?

daikini 11/8/2006 8:55:45 PM

that's pretty maudlin of them.

wizardsbeard 11/8/2006 8:59:48 PM

Too bad. They're good. *Inserts "Band got K.O.ed" joke*

Fraility 11/8/2006 10:37:50 PM

Scenesters smoke weed? I thought they chilled at the mall outside of Wet Seal & Hot Topic?

xomertax 11/9/2006 2:21:32 AM

I really couldn't care less about what happens to this band.

ihavegas 11/9/2006 10:06:50 AM

hxc0148 11/9/2006 5:19:34 PM
