firmo Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 Uh oh Freebass - 9th Sept 2010 - Band Update Posted on Thursday, 9 September 2010 News :: Freebass-9th-sept-2010-band-update :: Freebass Its A Beautiful life Album Cover Freebass – (and so we face...) The Final Curtain It is with great sadness that just prior to the long awaited album release of “It’s A Beautiful Life” we have to announce that the much anticipated Mancunian union of bassists, Freebass, is no longer a functioning group. Recent events have made Freebass entirely unviable as a band, and with this in mind, it has been decided that the project should be shelved, rather than placed on hiatus while members pursue their other interests. The band would like to take the opportunity to thanks friends and fans for their support and interest, especially on the UK tour in June 2010. We also hope that people will enjoy the album, which concludes five years of work and treat it on its own merits. No third parties were involved or harmed in the break up.

Lord Sausage Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 Not very free when it costs a tenner. Also i think it would have been about £15 too much to watch that shower! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
risingson Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 (edited) They had Liam Gallagher singing for them at one stage.
