Bye Bye Berman?

What? My favorite poet rock star has called it quits? Say it ain't so!

I suppose if he had to stop making music, ending with Lookout Mountain, Lookout Sea, one of the best records of last year, is a good way to do it. I'm glad I got to see Silver Jews live during what apparently was their last tour.

Here's hoping he doesn't stop writing poetry. I would love a new David Berman collection. Actual Air was published in 1999. So he's had some time to get some new stuff together. My fingers are crossed...
