Ted Leo @ Northsix, Brooklyn | Jan 28, 2007 (CRED)

"On Tuesday, Yahoo said in a Flickr blog that it will discontinue the e-mail-based Flickr sign in system, requiring everyone to have a Yahoo ID to sign in on March 15.................A San Francisco photographer who blogs under the name "Thomas Hawk" complained that he has four Flickr accounts and the change will mean he will have to create four different Yahoo accounts.....He also criticizes Yahoo's limiting of the number of contacts a Flickr member can have and the number of tags users can use." [Cnet]

The above photo of Ted Leo was taken at Northsix in Brooklyn on January 28, 2007 by Wolinetz who in turn posted it on Flickr.

The last show ever at Northsix happens tonight. Tickets are still on sale. Northsix reopens remodeled in a few months as the Music Hall of Williamsburg.

The Ted Leo show was a benefit for Callum Robbins. The next benefit show for Callum will feature Shellac and take place in Chicago. Ted Leo is also touring.

**WE REGRET TO ANNOUNCE THAT, FOR REASONS BEYOND OUR CONTROL (ConEdison disconnected power to the building one day too early), TONIGHT'S FINAL NORTHSIX SHOW HAS BEEN CANCELLED. WE APOLOGIZE FOR ANY INCONVENIENCE TO THOSE WHO PURCHASED TICKETS AND, ESPECIALLY, TO THE BANDS THAT SO GRACIOUSLY AGREED TO PLAY OUR LAST SHOW.

Bye Northsix!

Cho! And I was going in there with a 3 cam crew!

Thx for the heads-up tho.

So the last band to play N6 was in fact Apollo Heights last night, somewhat ramshackle, not that crowded, but a lot of fun - fittingly perhaps.
