The CIG is Dead

After 3 years of going nowhere, we are calling it quits.  Not because we weren't going anywhere, cause we didn't care about that, we are done because John, our drummer got married and moved to New York to teach math at Cornell University.  Yes, the Ivy League Cornell.  Also, Reuben, our guitar player, has started his residency for med school.  So, if you are doing the math, we have two doctors in the band.  One, a doctor of math, and two, soon to be medical doctor.  We are arguably one of the most educated punks bands in Orange County.  We might get back together once things settle back down.  John's contract is only for 2 years at Cornell and by then Reuben's life might be a little less hectic.  But for now, we have to take a break.  Matt and I (Chad) have joined a band called Faith Snakes (www.myspace.com/faithsnakes).  You should check it out.  Matt and I are also in the process of a secret project.  You don't want to know about it.  So for now, enjoy the new tracks.  Thanks for all the good times.  Take care and God Bless!

NEGATIVE APPROACH

I know it won't help to say, "Don't take my photos."  It never does.  Leave comments on the blog, don't take the photos to show you were here, just leave some encouraging words and tell your friends to come checkout the photos here.

That said, everyone keeps asking about these photos.  So come and feast your eyes on them already!!
