''It saddens me to say that my time as the drummer for Twenty One Pilots is coming to an end. I have had a blast traveling and playing music with my best friends. Unfortunately, being a few years older than the other guys, I have come to a point in my life that my responsibilities are too much to carry along with the rapid growth of the band. There are absolutely no hard feeling in this. It is purely a financial decision. It is my goal to stay closely involved with Twenty One Pilots in the months and years to come. I will still be living with Tyler and helping in any way I can. You may be wondering about my replacement. I am excited to say that one of my great friends, Josh Dun, will be taking my spot. He's a great guy and I couldn't think of a better replacement if I tried. I am excited for the future of Twenty One Pilots and feel that it has the potential to be wildly successful. Thus I will stay involved at whatever level possible for as long as I can. I can't thank you all enough for your previous and continued support of Twenty One Pilots. I promise you won't be disappointed in the things to come.'' | |||
