They... Thursday wants to thank us for being fans. thursday.net/thank-you I too used to have one of the band's shirts. Found it in a thrift store. That was like in 2004. With their eagle insignia or whatever it is on the album art of War All The Time. War All The Time... truly incredible songs in just that one album alone. Division St. and Signals Over The Air and Marches and Manuevers I must've listened to for hours upon hours. But really the rest of the album is so goddamn magical, everytime I'm feeling depressed I listen to it and feel like Ricky f**ing gets me, gets my problems... I dunno. I'm angry and bitter and heartbroken and going to bed to calm down. Good night.

The white dove. I've got a hoodie and a shirt underneath that on right now with the dove of both of them.
Thanks for the link. I can finally access the thank you page.
I know I've been upset over it but it still doesn't feel real. I suppose after the shows it will be.
I'm going to go check out the Australian music sites and see if they will be interviewed on Short.Fast. Loud tonight. Seems like something they'd do.

Why is this in General Autism Discussion?

It was the autismic reaction to the news that made me post it here.

Autismic Reaction....what a great name for a new band! :lol:

Indefinite hiatus is a safe way to tell fans that they're not broken up, just taking a really long break. It's like your parents saying 'we're not getting a divorce, just need some time away from each other.'

No one knows how long it will last. And it sounds like they want to get off the big labels.
I could be 37 by the time they release another album. I don't even know if I'll still be into the music scene by then.
Geoff's wife also lives in Sydney so I dunno maybe he wants to move to Australia.

I found my Thursday shirt so I'm kind of happy now.
