Jonny Craig quitting music?

2012-02-13 by EyeForAnEye | 116 Comments
After a week of drama involving Jonny Craig’s future in Dance Gavin Dance and Rise Records, it looks like Craig has announced that he will no longer be making music. Writing, "Im no longer gonna be making music. i wont change my mind so just leave me alone. i give up." [sic] on his Facebook.

He is a useless piece of shit anyway. Oh no like we're gonna miss his garbage bands.

By which I mean, that sucks for his fans but I guess I saw it coming.

He 's only relevant when he's around DGD. But now when he's tearing them apart, he's useless.

Fine quit music, better find a job because if you can't get clean your gonna need some cash to afford your costly drug habit. Lots people would kill to be in his position and he's completely throwing it away, what an asshole.

"Man I can't get off drugs long enough to tour, so i guess I'll just quit music." Fuck you Jonny Craig, get some fucking help you white trash piece of garbage. Obviously if you pick drugs over music, then you have a few screws in your head loose.
