Gatsbys American Dream loses guitarist; upcoming tour with Bear Vs. Shark, Circa Survive

Joey (guitarist), who had just recently joined the band, has left Gatsbys American Dream. They had the following to say about it:

HAPPY 2005!!!! Thank you to everyone who made it to our show New Year's Eve. We had a blast and truly appreciate all of you who came and celebrated with us. So that show not only marked the welcome of 2005 but also the farewell of our guitarist, Joey. Joey has decided to move on to pursue other passions and we wish him the best in whatever projects he pursues. If you get a chance drop him an email (joey@gatsbysamericandream.com) and let him know he'll be missed.

The band is currently in the studio with Casey Bates wrapping up work on their Fearless debut. Upon completion, they'll be headed out on the road with Bear Vs. Shark and Circa Survive. Dates for that tour will be announced shortly.
