      When I was in line to get signatures at warped tour today I saw all the band members and was super excited. But then I looked and saw someone I didn't notice and I noticed that Dan wasn't there. I thought maybe Dan had changed his hairstyle dramatically like he loves to do. I asked the mystery band member: Are you Dan? and he said that he wasn't. It turned out that the person was Mike Soprano, the trombone player from Streetlight Manifesto. He told me that he was filling in for Dan because Dan was "having a baby" and that one of the band members got a text saying it could be in the next 24 hours, and that text was at least 10 or more hours ago, so Dan may have a new daughter now (I asked, it's a girl).

      I wish Dan would've been there, but Mike was pretty cool and seemed to have pretty good chemistry with john and the rest of the band. He also signed all my stuff as "Not Dan".

      …I hope this doesn't mean Dan will be quitting though. That would be tragic.

      Congrats for Dan. I'd be really gutted if he quit like Matt did after his baby.

      Yeah, I'd understand it. But it would really suck.

      Yeah… Forces of Evil is good too.

      But if Dan quit, that would be a huge loss.

      I saw in an interview with scott, scott said that when dan and him joined the band they swore they'd never quit or something

      He's having a kid. I wouldn't read too much into it. Let's not get all Y2K and go ape shit over it.

      Oh, and Mike Soprano filling in? That's fucking awesome. If anyone needs to step in to fill Dan's shoes, it would be him.

      Yeah. Mike was a really cool guy. I love that he signed my shirt "Not Dan". He also was great at the show and hung around at the merch booth after they played.

      I'm pretty sure Mike's too busy with Streetlight to play full time for RBF.

      I wouldn't say 'don't read to much into it', simple because this is exactly why Matt left last year…

      I never said anything about Mike playing full time for RBF. I just said if someone had to step in for Dan ( since he's on baby watch) Mike would be the guy. But not everybody is the same, and if Dan leaves, then oh well! It's not the end of the world…

      I wouldn't much mind if they started playing their songs.

      Dan isn't Matt.

      In more than one obvious way.

      I'm just saying that they said he wont be leaving. Karl posted the blog, that's from RBF. (I know your name's not Karl, but I'm gonna call you Karl)

      Yeah, I'm aware of that. I was refering to a comment on the previous page.

      That's okay, I forgot my meds today, so I'm Karl. Just don't call me a Cubs or a Broncos fan, and I'm good with it!

      Chris Rhodes would've been a fine substitute if he wasn't out with the Bosstones. He used to play with RBF quite a bit.

      I remember it being rumored heavily, especially after MMBT went on hiatus. I, however, do not know how well-founded the rumors were.
