Hiker/Drummer on the Trail

The Chattanooga (TN) Pulse ("Chattanooga's Weekly Alternative") of 21 February 2007 carries a Bill Colrus interview headlined "Pouring Their Guts Out All Over The Place" in which Colrus talks with the Knoxville band called 'Dixie Dirt.'

In the intro he writes "While drummer Pete Bryan would leave the band to hike the Appalachian Trail, they picked up a new drummer in Chris Rusk, and a new, poppier sound."

Later on there's this: "Did I hear correctly that (former drummer) Pete Bryan is hiking the Appalachians? Yes, that is correct, and a big part of why he’s no longer with Dixie Dirt. I think it’s amazing what he’s doing, and I can’t wait to send him whiskey while he’s on the trail."

I guess that means he's on the Trail right now.
