More JoCo Drama

Posted by Jason Harper on Wed, Nov 21, 2007 at 4:51 PM

Soon, there will be one less ego in the Josephine Collective. Keyboard player and singer Albert John Redwine is quitting. According to official MySpace ramblings credited to JoCo frontman Dillon Teague Devoe, the parting is amicable.

Said Devoe in a bulletin: “as far as albert goes, we are all still friends. we will continue to be friends. we will continue to fuck shit up around town. we will continue our quest for world domination.. haha.”

Redwine just wants to devote more time to his solo electronica project, Fire For Effect, which is on the list of acts performing this Saturday at the Jackpot.

Redwine will play with JoCo this weekend, too, at the Creepy Crawl in St. Louis on Friday. JoCo’s farewell-to-Redwine show is tentatively scheduled for December 16 at the Grand Emporium. Redwine’s departure will knock the rowdy Josephine Collective’s Warner Bros.-signed roster down to six. Word is that the band will continue making angsty emo pop without him. That’s probably for the best. They couldn’t possibly find a replacement with a better name.

The sad thing is, the moniker goes to waste in Fire For Effect. For that act, Redwine just calls himself ULTRADEMON. Seriously.

ULTRADEMON. Of course.

Oh you mean this line:

The band is also rumored to be a bunch of assholes.

or this...

It's Sour Patch Kids candy for the ears.

or maybe

It's kind of a Panic at the Disco story in which the big break comes before the band has much to show besides aspirations.

Is that the "f-ck ya RT rocks, can't wait to see you on ABC" kind of good vibe you're talking about?

gotcha.

Interesting that you write the lines below about Republic Tigers after signing to a startup label to a sublabel of Warner Records:

Fuckin' A! Go Tigers! We'll look forward to hearing your fine homegrown jams on ABC in the near future. Or wherever. You guys rock.

Actually RT are good, they don't Rock however they accoust...So I started looking back for that congratulatory story when Josephine Collective signed to the parent label, Warner...Still looking...

If you really want to see a band rock, come to the Record Bar Dec. 22nd @ 8:00 p.m. for the JoCo show!
