I don't think that people should really be concerning themselves too much with the prospect as to whether the band will ever play together as a unit again. I'd hate to see a band play together just for the sake of their fans while not enjoying it themselves. It's always more fun watching someone have fun! Their appearance at Edgefest didn't seem to have the same zest that was there before. Sloan _is_ just a band, and if they break up, they break up. I feel people shouldn't be too sad, since they are definately not out of the music business, and they have not stopped trying to improve and put something into the music scene. I think of all the bands that I have learned about through Sloan, and then I think of all the offspring bands that may rise/transmogrify because there are four new musicians out there with a bunch of ideas in their heads. Just wish the members luck, and hope that they keep loving music!
