Chris Hakius Leaves OM

Well, this kinda sucks. I didn't know of this until now, but Chris Hakius, drummer for Om and bearded dude in the pic, is no longer in the band. Apparently they cancelled their East Coast dates, which means you were lucky if you saw them here a few weeks back. But the good news is they'll soon release what will be Hakius' final release with the group, a live vinyl only LP titled "Live at Jerusalem". Fear not, though, Al Cisneros plans to find a new drummer and keep Om alive.
