CANASTA with SLOAN - THUR. 7/7 @ DOUBLE DOOR ! ! !

(sent on 2005-07-05)

Hello again...

Opening for SLOAN!!!
I can't tell you how excited we are to announce this last minute show... In just two days, on Thursday, July 7th, we'll be opening for Sony / BMG recording artists, Sloan at Double Door! Sorry for the late notice, but we just learned about it ourselves. For those of you unfamiliar, Sloan is Canada's answer to the power pop perfection of bands like The Beatles, Rolling Stones, Stone Roses, Cheap Trick, Teenage Fanclub and Big Star. And over the past thirteen years, they've become one of that country's most successful artists and have served as a huge influence on bands such as our own. And best of all, they're touring on their new singles collection, A Sides Win: Singles 1992-2005, which means they'll be pulling out all the hits. Awesome. You should know, however, that tickets for this show are $18, so if you decide to come, please do yourself a favor and make sure you stay late enough to get a good chunk of Sloan for your money.

Schubas & Madison next week!
Since the above show is probably happening too soon for most of you to make it, don't forget about our other shows next week! Monday, July 11, we'll be at the High Noon Saloon in Madison, sandwiched between Nicolai Dunger and Paul Fonfara (ex-16 Horsepower). And then next Friday, July 15, we'll be at Schubas, playing between Neva Dinova and Mayday (on Saddle Creek, with members of Cursive and Head of Femur). We'll be debuting new songs at both, so come out and see what we've been up to!

That's all for now. Thanks, take care and we'll see you in “the pit”!
