We Bid Farwell to Music Legends


This week has been a rough one, the indie/rock band Phantom Planet best known for their hit "California" from the O.C. has gone on hiatus. What this means for the future of the band I do not know at the moment. all i know is that Phantom Planet superfans such as my very good pal Jordan Ballou are crushed by the news. The details are extremely limited but Phantom Planet guitar player Darren Robinson has released some information on his Myspace blog. "To answer many of you- this hiatus is entirely amicable," says Robinson. "There has been no fighting involved, I assure you. All four of us need some time to figure things out and just to be home. Fifteen years together is a long time indeed."

The band will be playing a very special last show on December 12th at the Troubadour and L.A. according to the band this is the venue where they performed their first all ages show. Weather they will return at this moment is unclear, but either way we'll never for one moment forget their music and charisma.
