Major news from Chicago's favorite reverb-friendly garage jammers, Disappears—the band has parted ways with Sonic Youth drummer Steve Shelley due to scheduling conflicts. Singer-guitarist Brian Case tells Gossip Wolf that the split was amicable, and the evidence bears him out—this winter Shelley's label, Vampire Blues, will release a collaboration that Disappears recorded with local droners White/Light in 2008. Drummer about town Noah Leger (Electric Hawk, Anatomy of Habit) will replace Shelley behind the kit—he makes his debut with the band on Sat 9/8 at the Dust Up, a one-day mini festival hosted by Big Star (1531 N. Damen) in the restaurant's parking lot. Among the other acts are Andre Williams & the Goldstars and Old Baby; starting at noon there's also a record fair, with goods from the Numero Group, Kranky, Bloodshot, and more.

WHOA, nooooo... With SY in limbo/grave, one would think there would be no scheduling conflicts (no major ones, anyway) between Steve and Disappears. Steve really propelled the band to reach a turbotronic level on
Pre Language... I do not care for this shit news at all!
