I mean, hell, it musta happened a long time a ago, since Jarvis Church is doing his solo thing, Track & Field had had success producing for Miss. Nelly Furtado, and Prozzak/Simon and Milo did their who thing. I honestly couldn't stand Big Wreck, but Thornley is decent, so I'm fine with that one. Econoline Crush and Joydrop were a couple of my favourite Canadian rock bands, so it's too bad to hear that they've broken up. I actually own both "The Devil You Know" by Econoline Crush... the song "Home" was amazing. Just completely blistering rock. Too bad. As for Prozzak/Simon and Milo, honestly, they went downhill after "Sucks To Be You." They may have started out as semi-credible, but by the end of their run, they were nothing more than a made-for-Radio Disney band.

No surprise considering I don't recall them having recorded as a group since the start of Prozzak in 1999. Speaking of which, in this case, I'm not so sure I'd call that a "split". I remember you posting news about this last year along with news of Trevor Hurst going solo. What's come of that? Wow, I don't think they lasted very long.

I'm surprised with CanCon bands breaking up Ben didn't jump for joy.
Of course, CanCon bands are like rappers. When one quits, 10 more take their place.
