Last chance to see the B-52s. Lots of beloved bands doing farewell tours this summer, including Midnight Oil for which I already have tickets in June.

Crowded House is touring America too, and not billed as a farewell tour, but it seems more like a Neil Finn plus band gig at this point including two of his kids.

Well, God bless the B-52's. I hope they thoroughly enjoy retirement. And McCaw Hall in Seattle would be a fine place to see them. But, having seem them eight times already, I think I'll simply say farewell and thanks.
