The Last Wish was a rock band from Houston, Texas, noted for being the first band of Blue October frontman Justin Furstenfeld. Ryan Delahoussaye of Blue October played with The Last Wish at a couple shows, but he was never a member of the band. The group had a strong fanbase in Houston, where they played several sold out shows [http://www.houstonpress.com/Issues/1998-02-19/music/music2.html] . Furstenfeld left the group in 1995 while they were working on their third album. [http://www.houstonpress.com/Issues/1998-02-19/music/music2.html] Furstenfeld still plays Last Wish songs during his solo shows, and Blue October has played Last Wish songs on occasion.
