I personally witnessed Johnny Craig try and fight all of the other members of Emarosa a few months back. They pinned him and decked him a few times hard in the face before he stopped flailing. He's such a fuckin train-wreck. Both bands will be better off without him.

Honestly, when I first met the guy here in Fresno, he seemed kinda cool. I love his voice and I will say that in all honesty, but only when he's sober. Saw him live many times...the times he was sober, he was awesome. The times he was coked out...he sucked ass*cough* Starline with Eye Alaska*cough*... Eye Alaska stole the show...they couldn't even find Jonny's dumb ass... He's a selfish prick from what I've heard and seen, but I'm not going to judge that until I witness it for myself...Oh wait... I did at the Starline show with Eye Alaska. The guy really needs to get it together because he has SO MUCH talent, and I mean that. I love his voice and he works hard, but he needs to keep his mind on the prize. And that prize can't be cocaine or pussy.

I think they've already recorded 5 songs (or more) of DTBM2, because Jon Mess tweeted that he was listening to the first five songs.

Well it seems that DBM2 is fully recorded so I dont care that he left, and he is still doing the tours so I will get to see him at warped so another plus. Though he did kinda fuck up any new dgd and emarosa material.

ACTUALLY, Kurt can sing live, quite well.

He has a lot of 'hit and miss' performances, but he is able to pull it off. He typically fails at singing stuff from 'Happiness', but thats mainly because he walked a very fine line between singing and yelling on that record (and it worked, unlike some other vocalist who try it... Nathan Ells).

But when he sang stuff from Deathstar, he did it with amazing accuracy, and stellar stage pressance. Idk. Just sayin'.

Well Kurt went to shit within the last year overall. When he first joined he was fucking amazing live. He has just gotten gradually worser live over the years. I have seen then 5 times to tell.

Well, that'd be it. His performances at Warped 08 didn't seem to be to bad. That video by AK99Superstar he did HORRENDOUSLY. But then again, I like it more than the one with the new, old, DGD with Jonny.

I'd take Kurt over Mr.JC. On record, Kurt has a really infectious voice, and he writes great vocal hooks and melodies. While Jonny has a great voice... well, you've heard him sing on one song, you've pretty much heard him sing every other one of this songs.

I'm actually surprised Emarosa don't try to get Kurt. Just cause it'd make me lol. I should go to youtube and start rumors.
