Well, the Stampede is not one of them.
hint: They both rock! Well, you probably guessed at least one of them by now...Tara Wittchen is one and the other is Chixdiggit. I saw them last night here in StLouis, and they were soooo great. I'm not sure what you Canadians do in order to acheive this, but both C.Diggit and Sloan have an amazing amount of fun on stage, something that is usually lacking from American bands' live shows [not too close to home, is it Todd?]. I spoke to a couple members after the show (they're friends of friends) and they also mentioned that both Sloan albums are in heavy rotation in their tour van (at least once a day) and this is after being on tour for about a month. They're playing in Champaign-Urbana, IL, tonight (my old home), so any Sloannetters are strongly encouraged to catch them there or at any opportunity. Their music is kinda like Sloan meets Green Day [which is really English post punk/power pop to us older sect]. Oh yeah, they also played a cover by Huevos Rancheros (fellow Calgarians). bye, Patrick
