Are there any bars for live music left? About a week ago there was a cryptic myspace bullitin from Violet Wild about their upcoming last shows at Last Exit. It was unclear whether it was Violet Wild's last shows, Last Exit's last shows, or Violet Wild's last shows at Last Exit.

I recieved confirmation today that Last Exit is closing their doors in, seemingly on April 25th, judging by their calendar. Violet Wild, The Black Moods and Strange Young Things is an appropriate lineup, all of which I think of Last Exit being home to. Not to mention that being a fucking sweet lineup in general that I'd want to see.

But yeah, really sucky news - I loved Last Exit and was looking forward to hanging out there again soon.

I recently heard that the new Black Moods shows were a limited thing, and sans Kevin Prier again, which all seemed really weird - but makes sense now, those shows are probably just because the Last Exit is closing.

So it's yet another great bar down. Goddamn the city of Tempe!

It posses the same question as when Wongs closed - where the hell are all these bands going to play now?
Now Playing: The Daylons - Mexico
