The Go Go’s have their final concert set for August 30 at the Hollywood Bowl, ending their 38 year career.

While they had planned on doing the final tour last year, it had to be postponed when Jane Wiedlin injured herself. Now, starting August 2, they will play their last eighteen shows.

On Wednesday night, the group visited the Jimmy Kimmel show to play two of the biggest hits.
