Sleater-Kinney Call It A Day
From Sleater-Kinney.com:
After eleven years as a band, Sleater-Kinney have decided to go on indefinite hiatus. The upcoming summer shows will be our last. As of now, there are no plans for future tours or recordings.Guess I definitely need to catch them at Lollapalooza - i.e., their final show.
We feel lucky to have had the support of many wonderful people over the years. We want to thank everyone who has worked with us, written kind words about us, performed with us, and inspired us.
But mostly we want to extend our gratitude to our amazing fans. You have been a part of our story from the beginning. We could not have made our music without your enthusiasm, passion, and loyalty. It is you who have made the entire journey worthwhile
With love and thanks,
Sleater-Kinney

Truly, truly sucks. The best rock band in the land tis no more. And, no, I'm not exaggerating. Was listening to that old GBV boot from the Patio Club in Indianaplis, circa 1997, and Bob gushes about how great S-K were (they were on the same bill). They will be very much missed. I can't believe they won't be adding a last show in Seattle, Portland or Olympia, but the note makes it pretty clear they won't be. They will be missed.
They just announced that they will be doing a show in Portland in August. Good. Lollapalooza is no way to go out.
