Upcoming / R.I.P. Pure Country Gold: Here Today, Gone Tomorrow
Posted by Travis Ritter on Thu, Feb 10, 2011 at 1:35 PM
Well, that didn't take long. After Pure Country Gold announced last week that they were calling it quits, they played a blazing short, blooze-y early set at Slabtown Bender for a room full of friends and fans, who showed up early and partied all through the night. As Patrick Foss said, which we agree with completely, playing an short, early set in the evening was no way to go out. He mentioned the chance of there being one last time to catch them live, where they'd play a longer set of songs that span the past five years of playing together, before hanging it up for good. Not beating around the bush, the band just confirmed a venue and a date for the final showdown: Saturday, March 5 at Tonic Lounge.
Mean Jeans, Hey Lover and DJ Hwy 7 will be helping Pure Country Gold go out in style at 9:30pm, with many shots of whiskey and tall boys to be consumed. Bring party balloons and plan for mass hangovers and infinite sadness the next day.
