The Great Division: Mike McClure's New Band

[Posted on the original RAWbservations]

Mike McClure has hit the ground running with news of his exodus from Great Divide becoming public. Though there is no band name yet, he's assembled his team which disturbingly includes Bleu Edmondson's (soon to be former) lead guitarist Coby Weir. The Lester Brothers haven't announced that TGD is in fact a former entity, so it's possible that they will find another lead singer and continue under that name. McClure isn't the most replaceable person, though, as he has a rather distinct voice and wrote a good number in the TGD catalogue (in other words, he wasn't just a pretty boy frontman). But whether it's under the Great Divide name or Lester Brothers Band or whatever, I look forward to hearing them. It's a little tough now, but the prospect of two good bands coming of this leaves me room for hope.

UPDATE: Nope, Not Coby Weir. He's still playing with Bleu Edmondson. Kevin says the guitarist they do have is pretty bad-ass, though.
