Drummers dropping like flies

Fueled By Ramen is reporting that Jersey's drummer, Ian, has left the band. He announced his departure at a recent show and gave an emotional farewell to the crowd. The reasons for his departure have not been made public, however he and the band are on good terms. Jersey will continue with a replacement drummer who has yet to be named. This has been a bad year for losing drummers... Leftover Crack, Tiger Army, Satanic Surfers, Alkaline Trio, Ten Foot Pole, the Impossibles, Small Brown Bike and countless others have had a drummer leave in 2001.
