Forget The Dukes

FTD Break.

I'm writing this to inform, anyone who may be interested of the reasons for our inactivity over the recent months. Without any conversation, Chris has decided he no longer wishes to be part of the band, his reasons have largely come through a third party but I will try to offer a summary below. The band lacks communication he no longer enjoys it, after a break after our last show, he 'couldn't be arsed to carry on'. Much of the blame has been placed at the door of our guitarist, however, as with most things, there is right and wrong on both sides. Chris left the band after our last show in Redditch without telling half of the band. However after a conversation, some weeks later, it became clear that the band would not be carrying on. It wasn't something the rest of the band wanted, but as Chris has been a 'brother in arms' and a friend for so long, we decided it would be best to leave it where it was, instead of bringing someone else in. We would like to thank the bands we've played with, the venues who put us on and the friends we have made over the last 18 months to 2 years. I had a blast. Viva la Punk.
