no Yo La Tengo Hanukkah shows this year

« Who do you want to see this CMJ? | A letter from your host Dave Hill »

Thanks to all who sent me this sad note...

Hey everybody,

In answer to the most FA'd Q of the last few months, we have reluctantly decided not to play the eight nights of Hanukkah this year at Maxwell's. We have concluded that our touring schedule is such we just wouldn't be able to put together a lineup as Hanukkahriffic as years past. Was the refusal of the cast of "The Times They Are A-Changin'" to take part the last straw? Really, is there anything to gain in assessing blame? But yes, it was.

Georgia, Ira and James

They shouldn't be performing after sundown on holy days, anyway.
