Note: The last blog entry for Soul Review Board states that the band's Rainbow Bistro gig, originally scheduled for September 15 and then moved to October 19, was to be the band's last. Unfortunately, it was cancelled at the last minute. According to Jamie's records, some of the band members were disappointed at this turn of events, as they had taken October 19 off from their other projects in order to accommodate the Rainbow gig. The band's blog was never updated to reflect this cancellation.
