The NME once ran a story saying he was going to give up music (and possibly actually break up the band, I can't really remember and I don't think it's on their website anymore) to focus on being a tattoo artist. He claimed they were bullshitting.
Yeah I think that's the one I read. Didn't know they were just making shit up though :/. Grey Britain was actually a really good album, gonna miss Gallows with Frank.
