As an avid Prabir and the Substitutes fan from day one, I was a little disappointed with the “Disbanded, Prabir Has Song Tapped for D.C. Sitcom” (Street Talk, May 5). None of the other boys' names were even mentioned. They contributed to songwriting, recording, playing and touring on these songs just as hard as Prabir. It was also disappointing to see no mention of the other boys' new ventures. Tyler has moved to Seattle to play with a band called the Head and Heart and the rest of the boys (Charlie, Robbie and Chris) have joined forces with Joe Ferguson in a new musical project called the Trillions, which has started playing around Richmond in the past few months.
