American hard rock band Thursday will call it quits after they perform their last shows ever in Australia.
Thursday will tour Australia in February for Soundwave and after the festival they will go their separate ways.
At the bands official website, they have posted this statement:
“Despite the fantastic year that the band has enjoyed, creatively, things haven’t been as easy for us on a personal level. Without diving into detail, it’s fair to say that this year has been an endless series of personal difficulties. We haven’t had any falling out and are all still close. I’m sure that we will continue to create, in some capacity, together. We’ve talked about turning Thursday into something else: a non-profit, a band that only records sporadically, a collection of other projects… Underneath it all, the personal circumstances involved make it impossible to continue Thursday in the spirit that has made it special. So, we stop. For now, at least”.
That would make the last ever Thursday show March 5, 2012 in Perth.
