Spike: Or maybe Captain Forehead was feeling a little less special. Didn't like me crashing his exclusive club, another vampire with a soul in the world. Angel: You're not in the world, Casper.

Buffista Music 4: Needs More Cowbell!
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
That was really a brilliant idea for a photo series. I wish someone would bring that back.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
So from the Kerrang articles it looks like My Chem just isn't going to have a drummer. Which, really, seems like a sensible solution to The Drummer Dilemma which strikes so many bands.
What bands have gone with this approach before? Having someone(s) record and (maybe) some other someone(s) tour but exist as a unit without a stated drummer? You see it plenty with keyboard players, backup singers, incidental percussion, a second guitar...

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

That's what R.E.M. did.

Was this about the time when the cries of SELLOUT began to echo through the land?

XTC has done it ever since Terry Chambers left during Mummer.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Smashing Pumpkins did, but their drum machine album was not a favorite with fans. I liked it, though.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.
What bands have gone with this approach before?
I know lots of solo acts do this, because a friend of mine is married to a very nice guy who is constantly recording or on tour with Tori Amos or Morrissey.
(And good G-d, if by wacky coincidence her husband ends up being the touring drummer for MCR, I am pulling EVERY connection I have to get to meet them. Oh yes.)

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Was this about the time when the cries of SELLOUT began to echo through the land?
Yes, but because they had often stated that if one of them quit, the entire band would quit.

Ah.
Well, life happens, doesn't it? Try and explain that to a bunch of durn kids...
