It's a good thing that things ended on good terms when Michelle DaRosa decided to take a hiatus from Straylight Run, because the lead singer of Destry will join her former band mates this evening to sing a few songs while they're on their current tour. DaRosa had this to say on her band's Twitter:

I am playing a few songs with straylight run tonight. It has been a year since i last played with them. I'm excited! Hope i don't screw up!
