this fucking sucks.
its like when drummer "gary young" was asked to leave Pavement.
"Young, you might know, was the free-spirited, long-haired (hence suspect) '60s casualty of indie rock's genre-defining band Pavement that came to prominence in the early '90s. Young had a good 15 years on Pavement's core founders SM and Spiral Stairs and yet was the first one to lose himself to youthful impetuousness, often prone to mid-song handstands and, strangely enough, distributing vegetables ("...only ones difficult to throw") to random audience members." -
