although, they didn't tour Anonymous did they?

[seas of luck]

Isn't Tomahawk over and done with already as a band? Or is that another discussion on another board ?

I remember Mike Patton being asked about this and he said that when the album came out he was busy with Peeping Tom, Daune was busy with USSA, and John was busy with Battles.  He also mentioned a possiblity of touring in the future.  It seems like it was rumored that Mike Watt was going to tour with them.

whoever posted hepatitus' myspace page, thanks. it never occurred to me to look there to find stuff by them. just goes to show how far behind the times i am.

how is this band not signed? from what i've been listening to so far, it's pretty friggin' great.

[black stallion]

i can see Hepatitis as a project,not as a main project though.guess Kevin and the other members involved work on that stuff not fulltime.besides rumors about don't know what,guess right now he isn't really interested about to be in a band and work hard in a band.

Kevin is the only Melvin's bassist where I could actually see him playing again in some reunion shows in the future.

Before you say anything...Mike Dillard did it!

[(PAUL)]

Mike Dillard was also the only member to quit, not get fired.

Although I like all of their bassists, I found Kevin to be the most creative one overall. I always dug the way he'd step waaay outside of the box of the "bass player role". And for the record, his bass work was a big part of the appeal for the Tomahawk stuff IMHO...I didn't even really like (or purchase) Anonymous for that matter.

Dillard has remained a close friend of Buzz's since he quit the band.

Buzz has brought him back so that he can fire him. He has that collector mentality.

I heard Kevin hitting on Mackie was the last straw

I was thinking the same, but I was just going thru "Heavier than Heaven" by Charles R. Cross and on page 81 you can read:

Bad boy? More like gimp boy.

Yep, unfortunately I don't think Kevin remained close to anyone in the Melvins. And I've never read Heavier than Heaven, isn't it mainly about Nirvana?
