The Academy Is... and Tom Conrad Part Ways

Posted by: Melissa Johnson (10/23/06)
The Academy Is... have left an update on their website regarding Tom Conrad leaving the band to pursue other interests.
MessageAfter two years on the road together, Tom and the Academy Is... have gone in seperate directions. Tom and his photographs can be found at forevernever.net. William, Mike, Adam, and The Butcher can be found in an abandoned warehouse, somewhere on the southside of Chicago writing their second album. While we are not too excited about the potential internet drama this news might invite, we felt our fans should know. We hope you understand and can continue to support both The Academy Is..., and Tom.

Submitted by grace we bestow

I hope its the guitarist that just stands in the same spot the whole time in the same "creed" stance.

Seriously, who the hell cares if you were the first person to reply? Does it make you feel more of a man that you rushed to the thread, typed in 5 small letters and then clicked "REPLY" before everyone else did just so everyone else could see that you are infact an idiot?

i think it's funny when people say "first." . i don't think anyone does it seriously. i take it as a widespread joke.

You have to realize that being the first one to reply to a News post like this is probably the only thing he will come First in. Its a pretty big deal to him I'm sure.

Eh, we'll have to see. We made a post about there being a rumor that he was leaving a month or two ago, and a bunch of girls came into it and blew it up...Then I got into an argument with them and pissed them off.
