All Good Things...

This week we received two major "farewell" announcements in the music world.

Confirming what he had intimated at the release of This Is Happening, James Murphy announced this week that the final live performance of LCD Soundsystem will occur on April 2 in New York at Madison Square Gardens. Tickets will go on sale Friday, February 11.



Perhaps less expected was the announcement from Jack and Meg White that we have heard the last from White Stripes.  In a statement released February 2, the duo stated, "The White Stripes do not belong to Meg and Jack anymore.  The White Stripes belong to you now, and you can do with it whatever you want.  The beauty of art and music is that it can last forever if people want it to.  Thank you for sharing this experience.  Your involvement will never be lost on us and we are truly grateful."

Classy.


Well, I think I'd like to play some of their music on this blog. So long, to both!
