I will admit I cried. For about an hour or so. P!ATD had been my favorite band since I heard their demo years ago. Before AFYCSO came out I was a fan. Their music has inspired me in my writing and Nails for Breakfast, Tacks for Snacks really helped me with relizing I wasn't alone when it came to dealing with a father who abused alcohol and stuff. I litterally have been a fan from the begining. I told all my friends back in 6th grade about them. No one believed me that they would get big. My brother was at their first show. I have a deep connection with this band. I'm honestly very dissappointed but at least there will be 2 bands now. And yes Ryan and Jon are their own band now. They have been recording and stuff (check out jons twitter) and Brendon and Spencer have already released a demo for the new cd (Oh, Glory it can be found by going to their actually website) They declared it to be musical differences but I'm almost certain it had to do somewhat with Ryan's drug problem. He lately has been really into some bad stuff, like cocaine and whatnot. I wish all of them luck in what they do, but never will forget my panic.
