Unfortunately, I haven't talked to those guys in a while, but I know that
both Brian (guitar) and Grant (synth) are pretty intensely involved with
other projects at the moment.  Brian became a father (I believe) scant
weeks after SD98 (I was pretty amazed that his wife, Veronica, made it to
the fest at 8+ months while recovering from a severe fever! she rocks!).
And Grant has recently gone into full-scale production of his Wiard modular
analog synthesizer system, which is probably keeping him (I hope!)
incredibly busy.   I'll be contacting him shortly to order some modules
(the website, http://www.wiard.com, says: "Many features have been taken
from dance music technology and married with features from the
avant-garde."  when it should say "Designed and manufactured BY Space
Rockers FOR Space Rockers" ;^) ), which he had demonstrated back at SD97
(it's been a long process for him!).

I'll let y'all know if I hear anything more (but check out Grant's synths!)
