Hey, you wacky kids! I have been informed that the upcoming release from Sloan will not be of the "musical" nature, though it will have some music on it. The new release is actually a project that Chris and Jay thought up over nine years ago, when the two were freshmen in senior high. In school Chris was super piopular while Jay was not, in fact, the two met when Chris was beating up a friend of Jay's. Jay started to cry which made Chris feel a bit guilty. It was then that Chris decided to take Jay under his wing and motivate him to be cooler. After teaching him how to bong, how to tape the back of his baseball cap, and how to secure his coffee thermos to the back of his Mountain Gear knapsack; Jay was ready to hang with the in crowd. Chris figured that he could motivate others much the same way he motivated Jay, so he decided to record a series of motivational cassettes. The tapes have a simple and easy to follow format, with Chris discussing the benefits of a confident personality and a friendly demeanor. Jay sings a couple of short songs about his growth from a ninth grade nerd to a tenth grade jock. One of the songs is rather emotional, it deals with the emotional hardship Jay felt when he had to give a wedgie to one of his former nerd friends. All in all, a great release from the boys in the maritimes.
sincerely, Bob "big business" Baxter
