Gaffney’s replacement, Bob Fay, appeared on Bakesale (1994) and the follow-up Harmacy in 1996. Gaffney had quit the band three times between 1990 and 1993, being replaced each time by Fay. Fay recorded and toured with the band during those years, performing on half the tracks of Rocking the Forest , including the Fay composition “Mind Meld,” and two tracks on Sebadoh vs. Helmet , whose cover image is a photograph of Fay. Fay was fired before the sessions for The Sebadoh (1999) and replaced by Russ Pollard , a friend of Loewenstein’s from Louisville. The band went on a tour to promote this album, including a stop in Toronto in March. The band then went on hiatus, with Barlow concentrating on his other project, the Folk Implosion , and Loewenstein working on material for his debut solo album At Sixes and Sevens , released in 2002. The two reunited to play concerts in late 2003 and early 2004.
