Moving a band's headquarters isnt always the best thing for the music though, yes it would help them get exposure and financial benefits BUT sometimes bands change because of location. That can be a hinderance for what the band is now. Im not saying they will change in all aspect BUT they COULD change because of it.

If they move up north they abandon us. If it means their assured success, they should go. However, I thought Crossbreed was about the fans, not the money.
It's a tough situation, but I sure as shit will not go out of my way to support a band that migrates away from their hardcore fans.

k, see ya ishijo... have a nice life.
As it has been said before on this thread, the band funded NSN THEMSELVES. If they are trying to get signed with JMann's label, then awesome, let them move up there... after all, it's easier AND CHEAPER to be where your label is than to commute every time you need to have a meeting or record anything... remember the only money they make is from shows (including cd sales) and whatever jobs they have on the side... also, in case you all FORGOT, Kittie helped Crossbreed get signed the first time and it turned out DAMN GOOD for them... Now it seems Mushroomhead is doing the same thing. I'm sorry Ant worded his initial post the way he did and while I understand his frustration, I really wish he had spoken with the rest of the staff about how to word it first, but what's done is done. DO NOT BY ANY MEANS jump to any conclusions about the band moving, why the band is moving, or whatever... WAIT until we have all the info to give you. If you all are going to be so shallow as to bitch out on the band just because they don't live in florida anymore, then fuck you very much and have a nice life, I really don't care what the hell you do then and thank for pretending to be a goddamn fan. Personally, I was a fan when they were st pete, I was a fan when they were new york, and now I'm a fan of them as an all-of-florida band... soon i'll be a fan of them as an ohio band with strong roots at home in florida. I will also be sticking around on these boards and welcome any other real fan who wants to as well...

Oh yeah, i was thinking about one think. Like Mega said we havent heard the full word about all this. What if only a couple members go and the rest stay back? They can still be a fully functional band even though they are apart. Skinny Puppy has been doing that for years and theyve been cranking out albums like no other. and for those afraid of little to no shows, if they are rooted in two states then both states will be happy, since there will be headquarters in both states. I dont know about the whole situation, actually i dont know anything about it. Thats why we have to wait for an official word

Alright kids i got some OFFICIAL (yes this came from james himself) My question : And is the rumour about moving to cleveland true? I just want to make sure so i can calm some of the kids down in the messageboards Yes, we are moving to Cleveland, but we'll still being doing our normal thing in Fl as well, we'll just be living somewhere else for a little bit. I'm not saying to take his words piece by piece because of course things may change. But this only means that Crossbreed loves their fans.

ok, here is what i personally think...i dont think that their intentions are to abandon their fans in florida, and i also think that no matter where they go, they are always going to come back to their hometown and state to play, and if they don't, then people in florida will get pissed as hell. i dont think it will be much of a problem if they move to cleveland, i'm not saying that because i live in a suburb of cleveland, im saying that because what smart band would ever abandon their own home town and state? hell, i would even be mad if they stopped playing a lot of shows in florida, it just wouldnt be right. so thats what i think.

Mushroomhead and Crossbreed on Filthy Hands would be fucking awesome... maybe they could tour again and I'd actually get to see the two greatest bands on earth play.
