Gossip / Music Blind Item: What Incredibly Popular Band Might be Reuniting Tonight?

Posted by Ezra Ace Caraeff on Thu, Mar 5, 2009 at 8:40 AM

We might be reading too much into our less-than-reputable sources—and we'd hate to ignite a frenzy with this gossip—but what beloved band just might be reuniting for a secret show tonight? Tonight's (possible) performance would be their first since going on "indefinite hiatus" nearly three years ago.

End Hits: Head to exit 108, just outside of Lacey, for more clues.

Erm, is that a veiled reference to Fugazi in there with that 'End Hits' thing?

Inquiring Minds, yes it is. It's got a couple of meanings, but the Fugazi record is definitely one of them.

NKOTB.... it's NKOTB isn't it?

Seriously, if it were Sleater-Kinney that'd be fantastic....

what punk group?

I'm hoping the reuniting group is maybe Sunset Blvd Kids Chorus. Or maybe the pop/rock band Grand Avenue.

just because two members of sleater kinney are going to be in the same room at the same time doesn't mean they are going to reunite. unless somebody makes carrie and janet crowdsurf while corin is playing and then they end up on stage or something with people holding guns to their heads making them play... come on...

While being stuck in Olympia rather frequently sucks, at least I know the area!

But I'm disappointed that Sleater-Kinney is going to be in Portland, and not Oly...
