Finally, teh world's worst kept secret is out. Please, it was obvious this was gonna happen, what with being confirmed for practically every festival this year.

The burning question is though, is this the end of Bright Eyes as we know it?

Desaparecidos are no more. It's a sad truth, but it just ain't gonna happen.

ps - If it does happen feel free to quote that remark and abuse me... verbally of course.
