Any new news of this? i would say, don't look for it right away. i imagine there's various legal things that would have to be worked out with geffen before they could release such a project. also, it's going to take some money, etc etc etc. but i think it will happen. I sure as forking hell hope that none of youse is pulling our legs, which I strongly suspect you are. *this* on the other hand, is NOT a joke. sloan DO have plenty of unreleased/unrecorded material, and have yet to *officially* break up. i would think other than the fact that andrew is in toronto, the fact that murder is an mca distributed label, probably causes more problems in there being a new sloan album being released...but i've heard the possibility for something in the future from both patrick and chris...but who am i to really say. i want the double-live album! it's gonna be right up there with the best of them! alive by kiss, frampton comes alive, the nuge's double live gonzos, and sloan rocks birdland!!! ;););) ...and just for the record deryl...the above live album does NOT exist! (clear enough?) shant:)
Re: Putative new Sloan album
Actually, SLoan did a set of 16 track preproduction recordings with Brendon MacG way back before PopX I and as I recall, tho don't hold me to this, it filled an whole 90 minute cassette... that was one of the reasons that they had the gear here to do the Smart Bomb EP for TH. Anyway, I almost stole the tape to make a duplication one night when Nick H was staying in the old Murder/Decent space (now Mokka) during the PopX (he was doing sound)... but for some reason I thought, no there will be other more legit opportunities, which goes to show, never ever listen to your angel, always listen to your devil... also, rumours abound that sloan may be doing some new pre-prod this month... :) W. --- Waye Mason : The shooting goes well.

speaking of the CASBYs..
the other day, i tried voting for the CASBYs by visiting cfny's homepage/web page/ whatever the terminology is. i had to get my vote in for _twice removed_. but they have this system where you're only allowed one vote.. no prob. so they ask you to enter an alias, then your e-mail address, and then your full name -- first, then last. ok, so here's how mine looked: alias: sizzleteen e-mail add: [EMAIL PROTECTED] first name: carol last name: nishitoba and then i click on register me. and then i get this error message saying that i'm not allowed to have the word shit in my name. [EMAIL PROTECTED]!!?!? um, no matter how i go about it, i can't avoid having the word shit in my name cuz gee, it's in my last name!! the name came with the parents, i can't do anything to change it!!! .or is this some kind of discriminatory measure put on by cfny to deny 4'11 japanese-canadian females the access and right to vote?? ;) ...sizzle teen p.s. the inbreds were doing their laundry on ytv news, and both mike and dave have super friendz t-shirts (and dave was wearing his proudly :) ) carol nishitoba ! me and stupid his mind was fucked up but 2A e.r.s., co-op! aren't we all in our own way?

Sloan joke
Hi this is Matt from P.E.I. Umm...I know you guys will probably hate me but I have to bring up that Sloan hoax thing up just so I can tell you a story that happened to me today. One of my friends from Summerside (1 hour away from Charlottetown) skipped school to come and visit for a little while. Anyway, the first question that popped out of his mouth was Where can I find the new sloan album shaken by...I dunno something. Imagine my surprise to hear those words come out of his mouth. I then asked him where he heard that and he said it was all over Charlottetown. This proves how quickly rumours get started, yes I was one of those suckers who believed it (hey I'm from a small city sitting in an Island) and I did tell one of my friends. The fact is there is only, correct me if I'm wrong, five sloan netters here on p.e.i. And I know Melissa and Karen caught on right away, I'm not sure of Mark from Summerside, and Deryl has no friends to tell...just kidding Deryl. So that left me...by telling one person this little thing it spread like wildfire. Brenden, this has been real fun during exam time, but now look what you have done to me. I'll have to walk all over Charlottetown putting up posters or something saying THERE IS NO NEW SLOAN ALBUM. That's the price of being a sucker I guess. And oh yeah, I think RADIOBLASTER rawk and I hear no similarities with the Hermits. Thanx for reading this otherwise useless post. Matt.
Re: another rip off
hi all, Hayden's a really good one for rip off shirts, try OhHayden! after OhHenry! and his new one is a bayer logo with hayden in there instead of bayer. he'socute. I have come up with the soloution to the bars and the underage clubs: coffee shops with stages:) Think it would work?:) that'd be cool. now all we'd have to do is get rid of the smoking... has anyone ever heard of a non-smoking venue? i understand the town pump in van. tried it for a spell but it failed miserably. -cp
i don't know if this worked the first time so here goes nothing

I'VE GOT AN IDEA let's see what you nutty chuckleheads think about this: -there shall be no more than three (3) posts a day per person to the sloan net. offenders shall be warned and then removed from the list. this might cause some people to think before they post, it would eliminate the dreaded 2 line/word posts and would cut down on that traffic that some litle babies are whining about (digests are for weinies). i've seen/heard of his idea being implemented on some other high traffic (and i mean high traffic lists, like the 250 msg a day punk list) lists, and sloan net is NOT high traffic at all, so maybe it might be too much, i don't know. but maybe people would start to listen to those rules of sloan net that james sends new subscribers, like reading all of your mail before you respond to something, and hen maybe including several points in one interesting post, instead of four really dumb ones? anyhoo, this will only work if james actually unsubs offenders, otherwise it'll be back to the same old say mould in no time. just a thought. mc ps - oh, and to deryl, if you don't think people jump on my ass, you really haven't been around here very long - and the difference between your random acts of senseless profanity and what i do is the fct that i actually try (i don't always suceed) to make some sort of point that is grounded in the temporal plane with what i write. there is a difference between whining and criticism. gordon, ned and tyler are three good friends of mine and i think that preppy relatives are one of the best bands in this town - my post was merely to express my bewilderment at what is to come. for fans of PR, this will be a very different show indeed. pps - i think the nutty chuckleheads is a good band name as well.
