Dave Is Leaving Relient K. His Last Show Is Gonna Be On December 29 And Then It Seems Like He Will Go Full Time With His Wife In Gypsy Parade. Feel Free To Be Utterly Depressed But Just Know That Its Not Gonna Get Him Back So (As Im Trying To Learn) It Really Has No Point. I Hope That We Can Be Happy For Dave As He Moves On And Can Welcome The New Drummer (Whoever He May Be) With Open Arms.
Heres What Dave Said:
"I know that there have been some rumors and speculation about my future in Relient K. I suppose I should clear that up. The time has, in fact, come for me to leave the band. This has been a very difficult decision, but I know that this is the right one. Relient K has been a huge part of my life and I'm sure that it is going to take a long time to get used to not being a part of the band any more. I've had a lot of good times, met a lot of great people, and been able to go a lot of places. it's been a blessing and a pleasure to work with Matt, Matt, John, and Jon. Also, I want to thank everyone else who has been involved with the band, especially those who have been on the road with us. Our fans are amazing and I want to thank all of you for your support and enthusiasm.
I am moving on to new music projects, and I hope that I will still have all of your support. Come the first of the year I will be devoting most of my time to Gypsy Parade . Feel free to look us up and say hi. Until then I will playing with Relient K, so I've got a few more shows left in me. I suppose that this is my "farewell tour." hopefully I, and the rest of Relient K, will see you at one of them.
Thanks to all of you.
-Dave Douglas"

Yea, I saw that. I am a little sad, but now really excited that I decided to go to the CA shows. I'm also glad he said something before the tour was over. I always hate that. LOL
The good thing is that he and Rachel will have more time together. I have a feeling that may be the point. And I keep thinking that they will probably show up here someday in a small venue RK played back in 2003 and that would be really cool. :)
So, I am really sad, and a little apprehensive as to what is next, but no more than what is normal, I suppose. But I'm also happy for Dave & Rachel. It will be a bit of an adjustment, I imagine, though.
