Actual hiatus, or just trying to keep us interested?

Have any of the guys hinted that they are planning to make the hiatus a finite amount of time, or are is this going to be like the show ALF: officially on hiatus, but never performing together again (gasp!), avoiding the legal activities of breaking up? I'm not promoting the idea, but just wanting to know. Or maybe I'm just being impatient. Just waiting outside Milestones. Yours, Jason [not wanting to see Mike ending up promoting 10-10-220]

They stopped working together around 1995-1996, but recently got back together to do a tour of Europe, and are now planning on a more extensive tour and a new album!

i think the plan is to be like the show ALF, in that the frulads will all become furry, wisecracking, cat-eating aliens.

Well Jian does kill cats.

"[not wanting to see Mike ending up promoting 10-10-220]"

oh, I wouldn't worry about that. I'm sure Jian will already have the gig.

As far as I know, they're still on hiatus, without a publicized time-frame. Anything else is insider information.

*sigh*

Haven't they always been furry wisecracking, cat-eating aliens. And don't they all really have the first name of Gordon?

What do owls have to do with this?

And look at how successful their bar/restaurant chain has become!

Mmmmmm... Hooters...

erm, I mean... Mmmmmm... wings... ;)

Oh, mock all you like, but they're one of the finest bands I have ever heard in my life. I have yet to hear any other band take all of the same elements and make them into such a cohesive whole as they do.
