I heard the frontman fired two members, so it's not the lineup from last time…

While Murray is definitely the creative heart and soul of The Dears, I think it was Krief and Georges who provided the energy for the live performances. A couple of the ladies in Pony Up! have joined the band as well as some others I'm not really familiar with. Obviously, I can't pass judgement until I see the new outfit live, but I have a hard time believing anyone can replace the intensity Georges and Krief brought to the stage.
Enough of being pedantic. I'm sure they'll put on a good show but I don't think we can expect anything close to they way it was before.

wrong board.
Why do you call one of them by his first name and the other by his last name?

Because if you dont love me now, you will never love me again. I can still hear you saying you would never break the chain.
Charlie wrote:You mean Krief? That's what he calls himself. Most people just call him Krief. No idea why.

Perhaps people would appreciate him more if he went by "Patrick".

Yeah, I'm aware of the lineup changes, but I still want to see them. The new album is definitely less intense than previous albums, but I'm willing to give Murray the benefit of the doubt.

Not really "Just Announced", but for maybe the first time since they stopped taking out ads in the City Paper (years) I took a look at the Jaxx calendar, and oh boy…

Iron and Wine is doing a similar thing, except they're not playing DC for it.

Bowie did the same thing in 1990 for his Sound+Vision tour.
