Lorenzo Goetz Call It A Day

According to openingbands.com and the band's official website, Lorenzo Goetz have decided to go their separate ways.

"After almost 6 years, 300 shows, 2 EPs, 1 LP, 18 states and 75,000 miles logged; Lorenzo Goetz will be calling it quits. The band has left it's mark on the local and national scene, providing dance-inducing tunes for people in search of a good time. 'Everyone in this band is in a transitional phase, so this makes a lot of sense right now' says founder/singer/songwriter/guitarist Larry Gates. The bands last show will take place on New Years Eve (Dec 31, 2006) at The Cowboy Monkey (6 Taylor St. - Champaign, IL)."

Tis truly a sad day for local music. Do you have any memories that you'd like to share about the band? Go ahead and post'em in the comments... Best of luck, guys!

Lorenzo Goetz will be playing at The Iron Post this Friday. Door open at 9:00pm.
