See You Next Tuesday parts with drummer

See You Next Tuesday has parted ways with drummer and original member, Andy Dalton. Speaking with Lambgoat.com yesterday, Dalton says that he received the news via email; "I got an email from the band saying it would be best if we part ways. They claim they wanted a more 'metal drummer,' whatever that means."

Dalton went on to say, "I was an original member, stuck with it for five years, dropped out of college, lost a few jobs, but got to tour this country as well as Mexico, Canada, Puerto Rico, and select parts of Europe. I also got to meet a number of generous people willing to let total strangers sleep on their floor for a night. My thanks to those people are infinite."

The group has apparently found a replacement named Jake, though additional information has yet to be disclosed.

As for Dalton, he apparently has other things with which to occupy his energy. He adds, "I will be dedicating my time to the planning of Dirt Fest, and to the construction of List Street Studios, a brand new 10 space rehearsal facility for bands in the mid-Michigan area. I will continue to play drums, but plan to finish a solo record, with me recording, singing, and playing all instruments, which will focus more on bluesy guitar and rock drumming than anything."
