Dear CheyVeckians,
No, we didn’t quit the band. There are no urgent musical differences between the members. We are not sick. We still love to play. However… times are very pressing on the bandmembers. Nils has started his own company and hasn’t seen daylight in months; Pepijn is in the middle of his criminology study at the university of Leiden and will not see daylight for at least the next one and a half year; Olav and Dim have their minds full of everything that happened in 2011 and what will and should happen in 2012.
So as it is, this unlucky combination of factors really prevents most of us from writing new material. Heck, we cannot even find the time to PLAY with a complete band. This situation will presumably not change over the coming months. We fear it might even last for a year or more.
Dear CheyVeckians, we decided to lay very low for the next unspecified period. When the strong currents of our lives have subdued and we find ourselves in calmer water, we will definitely pick up the pace again. Our trust in our music, and more importantly in our friendship, fully justifies this decision.
Chey Veck is far from dead, she’ll just be sleeping for a while.
To end the previous productive period, we will be hosting the NotSoFinalSitIn on the 24th of January, 2012.
