Heard of another disheartening beloved Seattle band break-up, from a Snakebites myspace Bulletin this morning:
Our LAST Seattle Show… Oct 5th…
The current line up of The Snakebites is ending.
We will be having our last show in Seattle October 5th.
We hope you can make it! Please mark it on your calendar.Friday Oct 5th

Strangely, I went to the Snakebites MySpace page myself just now, and I see no mention of the impending breakup, or reorg, or what-have-you. So now I don't know what to think. Have they removed the post? Had a change of heart? Am I losing my mind?
Who's got the real scoop??

Here's their band bulletin. Helps to be a friend, I guess. I also remember seeing Starr post a bulletin saying she wouldn't be playing with them anymore, so I don't know if that means they're reforming with a new drummer, or what?
Also, according to their myspace page they are (were?) a trio, not a duo.
