Thinking Maybe Its Time To Hang It Up:

So, i just received a message from my partner, and Fire Control vocalist, that he has decided to shut the band down. He told me he was "spent" from trying to hold everything together.

I know from firsthand experience how exhausting this can be.

My wife kinda feels like i was the glue holding it together and my relentless pushing kept it moving forward, but i too became utterly exhausted from the work i was putting into this, with other music projects, all happening simultaneously.

Its a sad realization for me, because when i left the band recently, it was at its peak - with a phenomenal bassist and lead guitarist.

My exit was for purely financial reasons and not an unhappiness with any of my bandmates.

I wish they could have/would have kept forging ahead.....

Everything for a reason, sometimes we don't see it, but everything happens for a reason.

I think the old saying is "can't see the forest cause of the trees".

Hang in there RH

Well said, Steve. I am sure and hoping Robert will continue to bear fruit with his talents, and also to keep a balance between music, his family, health, finances and all the factors that direct his paths of where to put effort.

I think I speak for most of us in here, of all Robert's measurables, it is his friendship, generosity and humanness that make it a pleasure to know him. As a result, I sure hope Robert can continue to be a part of the forum for years to come. Best of everything, bro.
