It is with heavy hearts that we announce that Minstrosity’s final performance will be at the Stronghold Olde English Faire on October 7-8th, 2006.

To everything there is a season, and people grow and change. It seems fitting that as this our 9th season draws to a close, that we close this chapter in our lives as well.

Josie and her wife Nancy will be moving to Michigan, and her plans include obtaining a university degree in music, as well as pursuing other professional opportunities. John and Wendy will remain in Chicago, and are in the process of forming a new band. Look for more information in the weeks and months ahead as we finalize our plans.

www.minstrosity.com will remain active, and CDs can still be ordered though the website or on CDBaby.com, or directly from any of us. The website will also be a great place to keep up on all our performance activities, as we intend to post links on the main page.

We want to take this opportunity to thank all our fans and the many people who have supported us over the past nine seasons. This decision does not come easily for any of us, and we hope to have your support and encouragement as we move forward.

Let us drink and be merry, all grief to refrain
For we may or might never all meet here again.

Josephine Thane
Wendy Zdrodowski
John C Wiseman


In the past week, my office's datacenter was robbed at gunpoint, my band is getting a divorce, and I turned 40.

I call do-overs!!!

"I call do-overs!!!"

Many of us are wishing for the same thing - for this and many other reasons.

Take care.

wow, I'm speachless, no new music from Minstrosity, at least there is all the good memories along with the cds I wish you great success with your new endevors.

You'll always be all kinds of hotness to me, besides I heard 40 is the new 30 ^_^

40 is a great year. It was probably my best ever when it came to breaking out and learning/loving new things.
So, as trite as it sounds, and as much as we'll mis Minstrosity, this could be the window that opens when the door closes...

Hey Star, have you heard from Tucker lately? I just heard about Fern (see my recent entry). Do you know if a 3rd annual 90th is being planned?

*Hugs* I wish I could have seen you all perform. Unfortunately I didn't make it to any Ren Fest this year, the first time in my life to miss MN Ren fest. -Odd....

wow. Not something I even *considered* would be that news.

At least it's for good reasons... and it's darned difficult to keep a group together that spreads *that* far apart.

May the rest of your year be rather less "eventfull"... unless they are *good* events!
