Knitting Factory Finally Closes in Manhattan

In Section: PRESS Play » Posted By: NYPress Staff

Missed it? Well, so what. Knitting Factory finally closed its doors in Tribeca with a promise to open in Brooklyn in March. But we're not sure anyone even cares. We reported in November about all the employees being let go and the strangeness surrounding the transfer of power amongst the owners and promoters. But does anyone even pay attention or care anymore? The end of year apathy only seemed to continue for the final performance. Akron/Family headlined with additional performances by Deerhoof, our fave Dirty Projectors and Deer Tick (aka John McCauley).

NYTimes has a slideshow of the final show here.
