The Word of Chad Gracey Options

[Hoodstock]

There's been a lot of discussion over the comments by Chad Taylor the past few weeks. I would advise everyone to take what he says with a grain of salt. My impression is that he can be emotional in his comments without putting the thought or concern behind what he is saying. He seems to wear his heart on his sleeve, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. Typically it makes for good message board fodder, but leads to numerous concerned fans.

That's why I'm paying attention and putting my stock with the words of Gracey. He seems to have it together and is informative about the new project. Here's his latest post:

"follow shortly! It's actually nice to have most of the summer off!! CT,PD and I will continue the ROCK for you all!"

Latest From Chad Gracey:

"new singer comes in on 08/24. In the next few weeks we will present the new singer, the new name and the website to go with it. New music..."

"for everyone who loved my drumming in the early days....get ready because I have been unleashed again!!! I leave for York on 08/20...."

My thoughts:

1. Apparently Chad isn't aware everyone knows who the singer is
2. They're laying down tracks this month
3. Chad has felt constrained by Live lately

1. Apparently Chad isn't aware everyone knows who the singer is

Chad is aware that Kevin Smith has announced that he's the new singer.
