(antiMusic) Colorado rockers Planes Mistaken For Stars are calling it a day but before they ride off into the sunset they will play for the faithful one last time. Date for their farewell tour have been announced. Here is part of their farewell announcement: "There are many reasons why weve decided to move on. Financial strain, family obligations, etc. But truly, we just felt it was time. Our love for each other and our music has not diminished. It will always be there. I have no doubt that we could continue to write balls to the wall music. Maybe someday, but for now, its just time for change.
"Chuck and Neil will continue to blow minds with their band, Git Some. Gared will be writing/performing as 'Hawks and Doves'. (in collaboration with Matt Bellinger formally of Planess) He also is putting together another band with some familier faces called HEXES. I will be moving to Chicago to be closer to family, hopefully starting a band there with some old friends, and probably going back to school to pursue my science career."
