Hey all Okay Thursday supporters :)

Sarah here. So the time has come to say goodbye! As many of you know, the remainder of Okay Thursday makes up a powerful force also known as The Motion Sick. They’re actually just returning from a tour on which I’m sure they kicked some serious asses and took some lovely names. For almost a year now, they’ve juggled two bands with more grace than I thought humanly possible. However, it’s time for them to concentrate their efforts on The Motion Sick, so Okay Thursday is going to turn off the lights and call it a night.

But along with thanking you all for coming out to shows and supporting the popping Okay Thursday has been doing for over two years now, I wanted to personally thank everyone who has ever been a part of Okay Thursday: Brad, Rebecca, Clint, Mike, Matt, Travis, and Nikki.

Thank you all for developing, spreading the word of, and, above all, playing in this band with me. It’s been one of the most important things to me in my 25 years so far. I love it right down to the cartoon logo Rebecca designed that, despite any issues we ever dealt with, always made me smile. Whenever anyone was dancing or singing along, it made all the work worth it.

I am absolutely going to miss it, but certainly this does not mean the end of our music-making. There are (far too!) many projects in which the aforementioned multi-talented group of characters participate in various capacities, so please go out and support them:

The Motion Sick
One Happy Island
where the land meets the sea
C4RT
Bikini Radio
The Cult of Point Break Society

And you absolutely haven’t heard the last of me, but that goes without saying ;)

Okay Thursday is playing our last show on April 3rd, 2008 at O’Brien’s in Allston, which is also the first show of a month-long residency hosted by the ever-popular, ever-spastic Harris (who, you might remember, played the first night of our Abbey residency on an insufferably hot night in August 2006.) Here’s the lineup:

Harris
Okay Thursday
Talk Modern
The Woodrow Wilsons

We’re psyched to be sharing the stage with them once again, along with these two other fantastic Boston bands.

Love to all,
Sarah

We're honored to be celebrating with Hennessys and Sean, as the upstairs rock club celebrates 1 year!

Joe Carson opens the show at 9, then you'll get some sassy pop from us, and then what looks to be like either The Cold War from Providence, RI, The Main Drag, or perhaps both!

Come out to 25 Union Street Faneuil Hall and toast to 1 year of damn good indie rock booking in an area that was previously void of it.

Congrats Sean, and Happy Birthday Hennessys Upstairs!
