It all smells to me. (Also second a sentiment from an earlier post: very proud of her insider status.) Also, also...unless I know incorrectly, her dates for Finn recording his solo record don't really line up... Correct & correct.

P.S. LFTR PLLR reunion when??? How about a LFTR PLLR video instead? Coming soon. And in the spirit of this thread, I am going to corroborate myself and say, indeed, there is a new LFTR PLLR video coming soon.

Whatever the future may hold, this is a total hatchet job.

Gross. Who posts shit like that? Plenty of room to speculate on the future of the band here without making insubstantial allegations about personal details of people's lives. Weird and juvenile and spiteful, whoever it is.

I just joined reddit just to downvote it. Even if it's true, and I'm sure some of it is and some of it isn't, it's really fucking gross to air shit out like that, particularly with regard to people's children.

As a New Year's wish, I do hope that THS will continue some time down the line - and I really do believe they will.
I was thinking about this the other day and I realised that although I would miss THS if they didn't make any more records, we already have a lot of their music to enjoy!
What I would miss more than anything is the joy (yes, real JOY!) of a Hold Steady show. I've seen plenty of much bigger bands, but nothing else compares to that feeling of exhilaration and togetherness.
THS have brought me so much in a few years: this Unified community, moments of generosity (the shirts), moments of discord (the shirts), moments of sadness (Jersey Mike and Meoskop passing), friends at the shows (Eric, tbob, Muzzle, Jonny etc) and my best friend in the whole world (Stringer).
Along with Mr. Springsteen (esp. Darkness), some of their songs and Craig's lyrics (esp. Stay Positive, Constructive Summer) have got me through the very hardest of times. And got me tattooed again. And further ruined my already destroyed knees.
Anyway, I couldn't give a monkey's arse about all of the personal stuff - it's just people together in a band. It'll sort itself out.
Long may The Hold Steady continue.

Reading that Reddit post felt like I was reading a trashy grocery store magazine. I love all of you guys here Nothing will fill me with the amount of joy as being front row at my favorite band's show.

If THS is no more, what a ride it has been. No matter what happens, I will never be able to sufficiently thank both the band and the Unified Scene for guiding me through my 20s.

Mod of the subreddit here. Didn't notice the post in time to read it. I've decided to keep it up, since it's empty now. However, if anybody has any info about this incident that they think I should have as well, feel free to share!

Just now seeing this thread, an while I never saw the original reddit (thankfully, as gossip and other peoples business are kind of a disgusting thing to discuss, especially since there are so many other awesome things about THS to talk about),I think we could all agree that if this was the end, THS would have made some of statement. I couldnt really see them not doing so if that was the case.
