So. I Can't Believe My Eyes

FROM THE HUSH SOUND MYSPACE BLOG:

"Ok, totally changing topics here... but we wanted to make sure all of you guys heard from us first.
Chris won't be with the band any longer... so if you don't see him on stage this time around, thats why. Don't worry, everything's fine, we're all still good friends. He wants to pursue and explore other areas of music, and will be getting his feet wet with recording bands in the Chicagoland area. He's a super talented musician, and we wish him the best. For now, our friend Mike will be picking up the bass torch. Say hi to him on this tour and make him feel welcome."

tell me Bob Morris is kidding. Please? In the worst case, I sense a total band breakup.
in the best case, I hope he comes back.
how can musicians do that? just leave their band?
Do they even care how their fans will feel?

but I love him. and I hope he does good wherever he goes, whatever he does.

edit:

Yes, I'm upset about it. I think I have a right to be. But the way he put it, is terrible.
He talked about a Hush Sound wallet, and just threw in a little sidenote about chris, and moved on.
I need some closure. Just like you need closure when a great relationship is ended quickly.
