Atreyu has addressed the recent departure of From First to Last from their ongoing World Championship tour. FFTL last week described the situation saying that they were "forced to leave."

Atreyu's response makes reference to the same band's "departure" from the Warped tour this past summer:

We are adults and do not feel the need to drag anyone's name through the mud. We wish Sonny a speedy recovery and hope his voice is not permanently damaged.

As for those of you who think you know "the story" becasue "so and so told you about it," you dont know shit and need to get over it. They couldn't perform as FFTL and are no longer on this tour. End of story.

Some food for thought before you start blaming good ol' Atreyu: A very similiar thing happend to this same band on the Warped Tour. Hmm. Weird. Coincidence? Lighting striking twice? There are two sides to every story. We have ours, they have theirs. All we know is that Sonny has been hanging out at some of the shows, so it would appear he has no hard feelings.
