Menomena's post
After 10 years of fruitful collaboration, Brent Knopf has decided to part ways with Menomena to focus on Ramona Falls and other creative pursuits. We want to thank Brent for his vast contributions over the years and wish him nothing but happiness in all of his future endeavors. All three of us look forward to seeing you soon!

more on p4k about the reissue of IAtFBM
a) well, I/many knew or saw this coming. At least part of it.
b) I'm glad I did see them the one time last September with Brent.
c) I'm glad they are coming back even without Brent
d) I'm certainly looking forward to the next Ramona Falls record. Perhaps even in 2011.
e) I have no idea who Paul Acott is (not the guy from 13 Knots who helped them out on tour last fall I'm assuming)
f) I am looking forward to the reissue of I Am the Fun Blame Monster! certainly with a dvd and bonus stuff.
but the big thing that I still wonder about is, will Justin and Danny continue as Menomena, and for how long. I guess we'll see. Brent was likely the one who seemed the most likely to leave, as that story I read last Summer said a lot of the Ramona Falls songs were rejected by the band anyway. Sad, but true.
