Bummer you guys hung it up. We are revisiting your band tonight and this week on 3 Car Garage at 7pm PST. Great tunes. Hope you continue somehow. Bear-PD www.bnrx.fm
the saddest person i've ever seen was josh after the show. I can't believe its over. I love you all more than you'll ever know. Thank you for everything.
I wish I could've made it to y'alls last show but since I'm not 21... o well. Anyway, I ordered "Grow" & "It's On!" from CD Baby earlier in the week & got 'em yesterday, they both kick ass, definitely something I'll be listening to for a while.
I truly am sorry that i will be unable to attend the "last" show of FFTN. i have to work, and as you know, shifts downtown are limited since the tragic demise of Club Clearview. I love all of you with all of my heart and soul and wish you the best in your personal journeys thought life. To the times that we had, 1801, and things yet to come, i will love you all.
aww i wish i could be at your last show cuz i want one free and final hug :( this is sad that i won't be seeing you guys ever again, you're pretty special AND i must say that out of any of the bands i have ever seen, you guys are the nicest and most caring of your fans. I have never come across a band that was as cool as you. it's really important that you know we realize that you care about us because too many bands act like they don't really give a shit, but you guys were always so friendly and that's what matters more than the music...even though your music was the shit. just thought you should know. thanks. if/until we meet again...
you guys never read these anyways, so really, what's the point in writing this, you know?
but I just wanted you to know that i still love you, and i wish you the best. But just so you know, I'm seriously crushed. You've been there in my life for over 5 years, and I thought that might possibly mean something to you, but you know, I understand, I mean, the whole band thing's got to be tough...
But I'm really torn about this whole birthday thing.
FFTN, or Fallen From The Nest, has finally hit the ground, after a 10 year rise and fall, of which I witnessed and supported them the majority of those years, and have seen them play in almost every state they have played in. I used to design and maintain their fan website, still own the domain, have spent nights out plastering their bumper stickers everywhere, handing out pamphlets, collecting names for mailing lists, helping sell merchandise, telling everyone I know about them, sharing their cd's, buying TONS of cd's, t-shirts (I have 24 now, from the VERY first one, to the most recent, and all in between), (HAD the thong underwear, too, 'til my dog literally ATE IT!), all merchandise they sold, including a cymbal broken by Munnch in a recent show, acquired last night in Ft Worth. I've got a scar on my leg from a drum stick that hit me at a concert a few years ago, when it flew out of Munnch's hand during a song, when it broke! I always buy the band drinks, and I always try to donate more money than whatever I am buying costs from them. 'Gotta support musicians!! 5 months ago Taylor, the lead guitarist, left the band, and it only seemed natural that the breakdown was inevitable. An integral part was missing, and after 10 years of hard work, dedication, drive, soul, and true love for the music, there will be no more of what we all know as FFTN. Between "Peter" and I, there are literally tens of thousands of pictures, from ALL the concerts, gigs, tours, etc, we ever attended. We are working on a tribute to them, and will once again reactivate www dot FFTNRocks dot com as a memorial to a wonderful time in all our lives. For me, watching them grow, individually, and together, was an incredible experience I am blessed to have been a part of. I will make an announcement when it is ready to be viewed. I want Josh, Taylor, Brent, and Munnch to know that I appreciate all the great times, all the fantastic music, and the friendship that will never end. I bought a copy of every cd, AGAIN (I must have 5 of each already), but these will be framed, and never opened, as a reminder of what once was. I wish each of the members of FFTN wonderful things in the new directions each are taking. I hope you will all stay in touch, and I thank you for all the unforgettable times, both on stage, and off! I miss you already, but thanks for a great show in Ft Worth! I hope to make another one before it's all over... Oh the parties, oh the trips, and I will NEVER forget Belize!! Thank you!! I love you all!!
Forever an FFTN fan,(thank God for cd's and mp3's!)
I hate to hear about the Break Up. You guys are mad talented and all around cool F'N Dudes. You guys can't break up until we break up so I will always look at it as a small Hiatus from the current to pursue other things for now. The music is in your veins and the friendship is deep. You will play together again. Stay Up Guys
Your fuckin kidding me. This sux balls dudes! Well at least call us sometime just to keep in touch. Ya'll rocked...no wait. ya'll ROCK still. Love ya'll!
Oh man, I'm so sad! You guys were pretty much the only reason i ever went to the blue monkey. You are one of my favorite bands and I'm pretty picky when it comes to my faves! When I first saw you guys it was totally refreshing because it was so much different than the sad scene that's around today. I was just thinking today that the only good bands that come here are the ones from out of town and I guess that will be no more. I'm sorry to hear the news, but I wish you all the best. See you! :^D.....:^(
i hope the best for all of you. i can't believe y'all are breaking up bcus FFTN is one of my fave bands. this is really heartbreaking. i think i'm going to cry. i love all of you tho.

dude...no way!!!! this can't be happening! NOOOOOOOOOO!!! I won't be able to even see you guys last show! AHHHHHHHHHHHHH! I hope you change your minds! Brandi
