Run-DMC has said that their final show will take place in conjunction with a brand-new documentary.
Darryl “DMC” McDaniels recently confirmed the legendary ensemble will put an end to live performances with their final concert at Madison Square Garden in New York this spring.
“Run-DMC is over,” he said. “The only way Run-DMC gets back together is if The Beatles get back together. Can that happen?”
“The final show that we are ever going to do is going to be at Madison Square Garden in April,” DMC continued. “It’s going to be the last episode of the documentary we’re doing. Run-DMC’s last show ever. ‘Cause it’s time for Run to go be Paul McCartney and me to be John Lennon. We did what we could do.”
DMC continued to hint at appearances at the homecoming performance by other notables including Ice-T and the Wu-Tang Clan.
“The show is going to be like The Last Waltz by The Band,” he added. “We’re doing that movie idea. You’ll see Ice-T come and do a song with us. You’ll see Wu-Tang come do a song with us. Anybody can buy a ticket to the show.”
Regarding the documentary, DMC said that it would be released through Netflix, or the highest bidder, for a sizable amount, and compared the planned undertaking to Dr. Dre and Jimmy Iovine’s 2017 HBO docuseries The Defiant Ones.
