... as Lori Linstruth phrased it.
Going in line with a bad time for the band (unfortunately she deleted her exhaustive post about the happenings when they tried to enter the UK) and a bad time for the individual members, Lori, Arjen Anthony Lucassen and Alejandro Millán Montoya parted ways with the band. The rest of the guys announced to continue though (yay!) and Arjen is concentrating on a new Ayreon album, so there's also some good news here. :)
