1. I spoke to an insider who explained the break up |
|
as Trey being pissed that the other guys tried an intervention to get him off his Oxycontin jag. The next day he blindsided them by announcing the breakup and this tour is only going on because it was already contracted.
That's why the most recent album resembles the Beatles "White Album" with each song being a personal production of one or two band members.
Tragic if true, hope Trey gets some help.
Can't be in Coventry. Look forward to the discs.

5. Yea, the projections of each members' feelings... |
|
on the new album is sad, especially from Mike. One of my favorite shirts on lot from the first leg was a "Mike says No" shirt...
It's been a good run for me, Coventry is almost providing closure in a step in turning a page in life, however. I welcome it very much!

Im coming from NYC, yourself? Its only a 6 hr drive...gonna do it on Wednesday night to get there a bit early and wait for the gates to open Thursday.. You're probally gonna hit the worst of the traffic, but hopefully it wont be as bad as IT.
Yea, they were at their show in June at Coney Island...

7. ahh hours and hours of traffic |
|
Last year, we had friends who went to IT from Boston on Friday morning, and got stcuk in 30 hours of traffic, made it in about 2 hours before the first set on saturday. But coventry doesnt have 60 miles of a two lane road, its just several miles from the highway, so it shouldnt be as bad...as long as there arent thousands of gatecrashers...
On the reverse end, I got stuck for 11 hours just to travel 60 miles back to I-95, not as bad as their 30 though....
