They have been going for the last 11 years, and managed to miss watching them everytime and now it is goodbye from me, and goodbye from them: It would seem Sleater Kinney have split up for the forseable future with this statement.

"The upcoming summer shows will be our last. As of now, there are no plans for future tours or recordings. We feel lucky to have had the support of many wonderful people over the years. We want to thank everyone who has worked with us, written kind words about us, performed with us, and inspired us."

These are their last gigs ever.
