Bassist Trish Doan is leaving the tour due to "pressing personal health matters." Stepping in to fill her shoes will be Jeff Phillips from Thine Eyes Bleed. As usual, a man has to pick up the slack for a chick. [I'm joking. Sort of.]

 

Trish said:

Due to pressing personal health matters, I must sadly inform you that I will be taking a hiatus from touring with KITTIE commencing immediately. With the complete and ongoing support from the band and management it is clear, as unfortunate it is, that these matters be addressed promptly.
I want to thank everyone for the tremendous support over these past two years. It has been nothing but an amazing experience so far and this decision has been made to do what is best for everyone.

And by the way, it really is funny that this band always has guys fill in when a chick gets sick/quits the band, but they never make a man an official member, just a fill-in.  That said, I actually like them as a band, so I'm allowed to poke fun at them for this silly fact.

 

The new album is really good, and you should pick it up, by the way.
