The Great Disappearance

So what's a little white lie when you're among friends and fans:

That last compact disc was the band�s 2000 release, �The Day,� Reckless Kelly�s third album.

The CD had a roots rock sound, led by Braun�s vocals, which inevitably draw comparisons to a younger Steve Earle. Band members Cody Braun, David Abeyta, Jay Nazz and Chris Schelske added to the high-energy sound of �The Day.�

All except Schelske will play Saturday. The bass guitar player is taking time off. Jimmy McFeeley will fill in.

�Chris is on vacation and is probably coming back soon,� Willy Braun said. �But he�s definitely coming back ... as far as we know.� (February 21, 2002)

I'm holding out for a year+ vacation, but so far the company won't spring for it.
