Today I also found out that This Providence announced in February that they are no longer a band. I guess I was kind of expecting it because they hadn't been touring or recording but I was hoping they were just taking a break and would be back. I'm really upset over them breaking up, I just kept thinking I would get to see them again and was waiting for them to come back here.
I got to see them in September 2011 and the bad thing is although I knew who they were, I hadn't listened to them THAT much. After seeing them at counter revolution, their music was pretty much the only thing I listened to for ages and I grew to love it so much, even now, I listen to their albums and it's just so great and I thought I would get to hear those songs live again. I guess I should just be happy that I got to see them. I do wish I had some videos of them though, but I guess I will always have that memory of meeting Dan at the airport.
Here's to another great band that is no longer. Also I need to mention how much it sucks that they weren't known as well as some of the other bands out there.
This Providence, you will be sorely missed.
I wish things could be like how they were in like 2006 when all my bands were still together. Those were the days.
Anyway, before I stop typing, I thought I would leave you with one of my favourite This Providence songs.
Omgosh how did I not know this information???
ReplyDeleteI'm so sad! But I'll always remember those fond memories at the airport and SWrev :,(
