Disma Parts With Drummer Shawn Eldridge

Drummer Shawn Eldridge from Disma just issued the following announcement about deciding to quit the band:

"Unbeknownst to me, I've apparently 'quit the band, because I'm sick,' and certain members have been actively seeking a replacement.

"As some are aware (though most are not), I've been experiencing and seeking treatment for nerve damage that has resulted from past cancer treatments. This, as could be imagined, has moments that affect not only daily life, but my ability to play drums as well.

"Despite these setbacks, I've managed to continue recording and performing with Disma, as well as the other groups I'm involved in.

"That being said, various drummers have been asked to join (without having ever been discussed with me), under the implied notion that I've quit the band, which is in fact not true. Well, it can now be said truthfully that I've quit the band.

"Now with all niceties aside - a firm 'Go Fuck Yourself' to those who lack the patience and understanding I needed during these times, and a sincere thank you to those who have continuously shown their support and true friendship."
