Long Shot Hero Hire New Guitarist/Replace Vocalist

[Brandon Allin]

Long Shot Hero (http://www.absolutepunk.net/longshothero) has hired a new guitarist as well as replaced their lead vocalist, Chris Irons. Additionally, the band has announced the dates for their upcoming "Ska's Dead, and My Buzz is Next Tour." A press release from the band can be found below.
"While the band is sad to see Chris go, we wish him the best of luck in future endeavours. The past 3 years have been amazing, but there comes a time when a band must grow musically. While composing the new album, we felt there was a need to push the envelope even further and move forward with our touring, and unfortunately, there were just some aspects lacking. As for the future of Long Shot Hero, you all know we have never had to miss a show, no matter what happened with any member, and that will not change now. Shaun will be taking over at the bands request as the lead vocalist, and we have hired Jim Hurley (formerly of the band Fail Me Not) as our new lead guitarist. We look forward to seeing everyone at the upcoming shows and on our upcoming "Ska's Dead, and My Buzz Is Next" 2006 Summer Tour. In regards to our new album, expect it to drop sometime at the end of 2006 / beginning of 2007.

And yes... We will continue to rock the dick out of shows!"

I'm bummed about Chris's departure. Jim is really cool, though.

Man, I remeber Fail Me Not and boy the lead singer was a pot head and a weenier, go to www.purevolume.com/failmenot (http://www.purevolume.com/failmenot) to hear them, not bad but the lead singer is blah. Long Shot Hero will always rock, I should sing for them.

actually, by REPLACED, they mean, I QUIT.

you can read why, right here

thank you.

Why is this kid so bitter? If he quit, don't they still have to replace him? Isn't that what it means?

His whole post makes him seem full of himself.

LSH will still rule!

[Brandon Allin]

maybe a little cocky, but oh well, we need more ska bands
I concur.

Since you are obviously an idiot, I will inform you as to what it means to be cocky.


SHAUN: joins a band and then takes complete control. Is such an ass that he causes lead singer to quit. Replaces lead singer with himself, although he isn't really a good vocalist. Is such a fat prick that he causes other members to quit. About a year after Shaun joins the band, all the original members are gone? Wow, you are right. Chris talking about doing this for fun and not caring about money and just wanting to play music is so very cocky, and you are so very retarded.

Shaun,

I feel that you should take your fat goblin ass and jump off a bridge. You should not be able to take credit for the bands achievments that you had nothing to do with. You come in and take control, and act like it was all thanks to you that they can get decent shows. You suck. It is almost like you have a giant cock growing out your cheek that you keep in your mouth because you suck so much penir.


Also, to the imbred monkeys who are going to assume that this is an angry band member, it isn't.
I just happen to have been friends with some of the people who got dicked by fat ole shaun, and ironically, Chris and I are not friends. Although, I think he is a nice guy.

To the kids that do not know thier ass from thier microscopic wee wees:
There is NOTHING cocky about Chris' post. You are idiots for talking shit about the ex lead singer to try and look cool to Shaun. Jabba the Hut doesn't care what you think. He would just as soon eat you as talk to you. Shaun sucks.

and thanks to Blubborious Fatking, Long Shot Hero now sucks as well.
