CLINT ANNOUNCES HIS RETIREMENT FROM CURSIVE
Cursive regrets to announce the retirement of Clinton Frederick Schnase IV from the band. After years on the road Clint has decided to spend more time at home in Omaha, NE with his happy family of Whippets. Clint has been a lover of Whippets and worked with them for a number of years. He feels it is his spiritual calling, "You can see your future (or
whatever) in their eyes."
We will miss touring, playing, laughing, crying, driving, flying,
walking, talking and drinking with Clint and are making plans to love him forever. We wish the best for him and his Whippets and promise to visit him and hang out once a month until the end of time.
Clint's heavy sticks have been passed to the wonderful Cornbread Compton who has travelled and played with the band for the last 7 months. Clint responded enthusiastically when Cornbread accepted the drumming position with a loud, "F***ING SWEET, MAN". Well put.
Clint is pictured here with his beloved Whippets:
