Well, from what
I can tell, my favorite band is kinda no more. That is, 10,000
Maniacs (and here’s the fan
site) is thinking of dropping the name and going with another name.
Reasoning is the loss of the band member Robert
Buck who played guitar late last year. I’ll quote from Steven
Gustafson, bass player for the band,: “To some of us, a future as
10KM without Rob in the world just wouldn’t feel right. Regardless of
what’s happened in the past, the past is not the answer here. IMHO, it’s time to
do the honorable thing. And that is to let Rob take the name with him.”
