    There goes their record deal then. I can't see the band offering anything other than "Alvin and the Chipmunks sing Radiohead"...

    from JJ72's newsletter....


    "An offical posting on the official JJ72.com website states:

    JJ72 and bassist Hilary Woods have parted company. Hillary has
    decided to pursue other interests at this point in her life. "I wish
    Mark and Fergal continued success in the band and thank JJ72 fans for
    their support." JJ72 would like to take this opportunity to wish
    Hilary happiness and success in the future.


    Very sad news for a lot of fans and we'll be creating a special
    feature on www.JJ72.org dedicated to Hilary very soon

    until next time
    JJ72.org"

    Who are the fans going to think of now in the band while they jerk off ? Deep down they've been thinking of mark all along but can't admit it so they lied to themselves and others and said Hillary.

    Alvin and the chipmunks lol.

    Appartenty her replacement is going to be Sarah Fox who looks like a porn star. Just proves that female bassist is just a marketing ploy.

    Their last album was excellent.

    Tbh it never seemed like she or Fergal had a major role in the band. Neither of them had much creative input, what with Mark writing all the lyrics and music. I do remember reading that she was only asked to join the band 'cos they wanted a woman as one of the members.

    Still... she's foxy, and will be missed :(

    As an aside, isn't the singer going out with Hillarys twin sister?

    Surely a psychiatrist would have a good days work in that?

    I'm sure there's loads of chicks with nicer tits doing auditions or have already been picked by now. And JJ72 are crap, if you're under 20 though you might love them. Bleedin awful squeeky voice yer man has. Come on. Worse than Corgans.

    No but I wish Mark Greaney was tho! What a name-dropping ****ing tool he is.

    I remember him on radio once saying he was heavily influenced by Joy Division but then when he was asked his fav tune of theirs he said 'love will tear us apart'. Good luck getting a second favorite JD out of him in that case!
