More like Swan Song than Swing Song
As posted today on their record label’s web site, The White Stripes have called it a day. Maybe it was Jack having multiple side projects or maybe it really was about leaving things as they are. Regardless, their end will be mourned by this fan wanting to hear new stuff from Jack and Meg.
Let me leave you with a final performance of theirs thanks to Conan O’Brien

if he comes back again…

Well, they look older than that photo above [sorry, no current photos, or at least I couldn’t find one that showed the whole band together]. But such exciting news. And they are on tour with Nine Inch Nails, for what sounds like their final tour ever.
A couple of dates have been announced so far: Sasquatch! Music Festival at the Gorge in Washington state and Bonnaroo in Tennessee [just NIN at this fesitval, not Jane’s]. More dates will be announced soon.
This is one of those concert moments that if you miss it, you will kick yourself all over the place for years for not making the effort to go.

Concerts coming to Utah this summer are a-plenty. Here’s the list so far:
And of course, the previously mentioned Stone Temple Pilots show on June 11th. That’s all for now of the bands I am interested in. Will add another post with others as they get announced.
