umm im probably wrong , but i heard somwhere that monte is just takin a break from tourin (i kinda hope he is just taking a break cause i probably wouldnt listen to escape the fate anymore {cause i luv max and monte })
Isn't life a bitch! First the personal shit then one of the most awesome bands is going to shit =( Well done for writing despite all that (I've been where you are and things can only get better honestly.)
