Letters in Binary left me a message on myspace saying they didnt break up after I said they should have a reunion show in philly haha. I dont know how theyre going to pull off keeping LIB and Slam active because they def make it seem like they want to keep making music with those bands. I know slam is talking about covering jenny piccollo and CWV. Dawn Treader is def a sweet band, sadly they are pretty much going through the same thing as LIB has. Theyre still technically a band but they're all in other bands and never play any shows. I allways see them at shows I go to. I am really looking forward to seeing them play that reunion show with D'Amore though  .

That would be a killer show. And I don't understand how LIB and Slam will continue to be bands. Its obvious Greg and Scott love doing their own thing, which is awesome, yet I think its a little out of reach for them to try to keep LIB or Slam alive. LIB has played about 1 show in the past year and a half and Slam is probably on par with that. Not to mention the fact that Matthew (LIB) still lives in Detroit, and Christopher (Slam) still lives in Toledo. Complete bummer too. I saw Slam and LIB play a show a few winters back. Slam played 30 some songs. Scott kept forgetting parts, so they just played some songs 3 times over, which was awesome. I don't know why LIB stopped anyhow. I remember seeing them years ago, when they first started as a 3-piece, and the shows were super tiny. Fast forward a couple years, we saw them play at Comrade Kilkin's last show, and then play with Lords, and there were so many people there, and everyone was going nuts, especially in that massive breakdown in "Watch Rack." They would stretch that out for about 2 minutes and everyone would just go ****ing nuts. Damn, those were some of the best shows of my life. It sucks they were playing shows and more and more people showed up, and everyone was getting into it. They toured a couple of times, and then everything just stopped. When I was trying to put together shows here in Lansing, I would ask them everytime if they wanted to come out and play, since Greg was just so much fun to have around, and they would never answer. Greg and I would always talk about how lame things were around here in Michigan; how few shows there were and how few decent, friendly bands not concerned with image were here. He told me many times that they were really just stopping shows in Michigan and only playing out-of-state. Maybe they just gave up on shows in general.
