"Hey everyone,

Unfortunately, in addition to cancelling our tour we have some more bad news. In Dire Need will no longer exist as an active band. This is very upsetting and comes as a complete shock to some of us. Since the inception of the new lineup almost 3 years ago, the number one goal has always been to become a full time touring band. We have constantly worked hard to get to that point and I can say with one hundred percent certainty that the transition to becoming a full time touring band is the hardest hurdle any DIY band can face. I can also say that being in a band in general, never mind a band that tours, is not for everyone. Truthfully, this band can never really die. In Dire Need is more than just a single person, unfortunately in reality though, that can't be true which is why today we are no longer a band.

Back in January we recorded a new record that will never be released. We were getting closer everyday to it seeing the light of day, but with the end of the band, that battle also comes to an end. We have put up all 6 songs on our page, and have enabled them to be downloaded. This way, the new record can be enjoyed by as many people as possible, and at least the music we made together can live on. We also have some merch left. Check out the online store we have set up and feel free to pick some stuff up. If you order any shirt we will also ship our old CD Lost at Sea with it while we have it. We taped what turned out to be our last show. We will eventually put it online for you to see.

We just want to send a heartfelt thank you to anyone who has ever supported us over, not only the past 3 years, but the years before and stuck with us throughout it all. To name specific people and bands that have had a positive impact on us would take a lifetime, so we will just leave it at that.

We will keep you informed with what each of us goes on to do. I'm sure you will hear from some of us.

Thanks for reading. It's been fun. See you later.

- IN DIRE NEED (R.I.P.)"
