calling it quits after their summer tour. their last announced date will be at lollapalooza. hopefully for their fans, they'll have a better farewell show than that.

Quote :

"Esteemed indie rock trio Sleater-Kinney is going on an indefinite hiatus and has no plans for "future tours or recordings," according to a statement released by its label, Sub Pop. The group will play five final shows this summer, culminating Aug. 4 at the Lollapalooza festival in Chicago. "We feel lucky to have had the support of many wonderful people over the years," the band said. "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," the statement continued. "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." "

Their last Cradle show was one of the best I've seen.

6/27/2006 8:03:19 PM

at least twice.. might go to the 9:30 show if there's any tickets left.

6/27/2006 8:03:56 PM

What the fucking fuck?

This was supposed to go on sale at 10:00 a.m. I've been trying since about 9:55 and keep getting that it's sold out.

Jesus Christ. I almost had a heart attack. They didn't go onsale until 10:11 or some random time like that.

i had a dream that the members of sleater-kinney went on to join the arcade fire. well, then they became the anniversary, who broke up and joined a bunch of bands simultaneously, including american aquarium and the arcade fire.

7/7/2006 9:08:05 AM

I just hope Quasi sticks together for awhile. Goddamn, I love Quasi.

7/11/2006 3:35:01 AM

If Carrie Brownstein joined American Aquarium, I'd actually pay to see them.

7/11/2006 3:48:57 AM

I hear American Aquarium has some kickass opening bands.

7/11/2006 11:44:38 AM

Got my tickets in the mail today.

Anyone else going?

7/15/2006 10:07:34 PM

Just in case you haven't seen it

I believe that both of those people probably didn't read anything other than the headline

4/16/2015 11:36:06 PM

I didn't read the article but I find all the hate kinda funny.

4/18/2015 11:33:44 AM

I wonder if Vinyl is gonna to wear his "Show Me Your Riffs" shirt tonight...

I, too, was on the Internet yesterday

6/10/2016 1:59:36 PM

You're apparently on it today too. Why the unnecessary snark? Anyways, congrats for already seeing this, cool guy.

6/10/2016 2:38:01 PM

just saying

it was posted yesterday and was seen by a ton of people who used to hang there

a few tww'ers even posted it, cool guy

6/10/2016 3:16:03 PM

So what you're saying is that I shouldn't post it here because some TWWers posted in on FB yesterday and a lot of people who used to go to the Jackpot already saw it? Ok, my mistake, I'll try to be cooler next time so i can avoid your square-shaming.

[Edited on June 10, 2016 at 3:22 PM. Reason : ]

6/10/2016 3:22:12 PM

just saying, it'd be different if you posted it the day they posted it

just a longwinded version of [old]

6/10/2016 3:51:44 PM

So it would have been a lot cooler if I posted it yesterday instead of today?

And the pic was obviously taken a while ago and is [old], so are all the Jackpot patrons that were posting it yesterday really all that cool?

6/10/2016 5:00:25 PM

sleater-kinney still sucks.

6/10/2016 5:05:59 PM

^^ what?

why do you give a shit about percieved coolness?

and the bands official account posted it for TBT

[Edited on June 10, 2016 at 5:09 PM. Reason : something something cool]

6/10/2016 5:09:08 PM

The contrast between corin tucker's voice and carrie brownstien's is amazeballs.

this band has and will always be a favorite.

6/11/2016 9:17:00 AM

Thegoodlife seems like a real fun hang

6/11/2016 5:44:27 PM

funner than the dude who flipped his shit over being told his post was old

plenty of people on this deal who can attest to that

[Edited on June 11, 2016 at 9:28 PM. Reason : I'm also someone who laughs at the new Steph Curry shoes, tho]

6/11/2016 9:26:42 PM

who doesn't laugh at those shoes?

6/11/2016 10:46:25 PM

dudes who scoff at being told they're a day late?

6/12/2016 2:13:50 AM

So if you don't post something the second it happens you can't post it? I didn't see that picture in this thread, was it elsewhere on tdub??

6/12/2016 12:07:52 PM

thegoodlife seems like a classic hipster douche.

6/13/2016 9:17:58 AM

for basically doing something that's been done on this board for 16+ years?
