DrumManTx Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 Somehow I missed hearing where Mapes and Grom are headed...has that been officially announced? As of now they just left. The way the Facebook post from one of them was written it just sounds like they don't have any plans for DCI right now, though we don't know if anything is going on behind the scenes.
