After he left Echo Hollow in 2000, Gary himsef came to reject the Christian faith. In 2000 he recorded various tracks that became the CD "The Lost Years". In 2001 Gary founded another Los Angeles rock band Cripple Need Cane, and recorded "The Big Dance". Lenaire's noted essays have drawn attention from philosophy, science, religion and skeptic enthusiasts worldwide. A new book by Lenaire, "An Infidel Manifesto: Why Sincere Believers Lose Faith", is due out in December 2006. In August 2006 it was reported that Gary along with other former Tourniquet members Victor Macias and Erik Mendez are back together and working on new material under the name "2050".
