Spot them all

I saw Sloan at the airport this week. Jealous?

Skillfully pointed out by Orange Glass/The Memories Attack's Ron Bates (the latter are, as we speak, number two on the CBC Radio 3 top ten. And number one in my heart). Members (and in Sloan's case, all of them) of Haligonian greats Super Friendz, The Inbreds, Thrush Hermit, and Sloan are all playing tonight: The Lodge, Bloodsport, Kestrels and Bloodhouse at Gus' Pub, Sloan, True Love Rules at the Grawood.

More facts! The Memories Attack cover a stellar Super Friendz song on the upcoming Rescued From Boredom tribute album on Gooseberry Records and also have a fantastic record of their own on ex-Inbreds Dave Ullrich's Zunior label.

Survey Asks

Do you agree with Halifax's school board cutting 152 teachers?

  • Yes, the board needs to meet its shrinking budget.
  • Only if managers and bureaucracy get a similar cut.
  • I don't care, I support the private education system.
  • No, giving young citizens the best education is too important to cut.

AND, when they played TMA on the Radio 3 countdown, buddy said they were a perfect distillation of Eric's Trip, Sloan, and the Inbreds.
