We are back from a nice weekend of RSD, Earth Day and I thought I would tell you all about my Evening with Sloan at the Grog Shop! 

Let’s set the scene… classic Grog Shop, dark, smells like rockstar sweat and the love of music, there is a beautiful backdrop of large silver sequins. Behind the drummer and keyboardist hangs a huge paper-mache SLOAN sign, the beauty lies in the taped up holes that were surely earned on their tour. People of all ages (even as young as 8yrs old) pack in to see these incredibly friendly and talented musicians. I hear the signature “Slooooooaaaaannnnn” call for the band from the crowd. 

No need for an opener, we know we are only here for them. 

If you don’t know Sloan, I truly hope this blog will introduce you to a fantastic band for all. 

Sloan got their start in 1991 in Halifax, Nova Scotia then moved to Toronto. With 13 albums these guys have really stood the test of time. 

I only know about this band thanks to my long time friend Melissa, she has gotten to see them live about 50 times… that’s not an exaggeration, it's pretty close to accurate! This marks my second Sloan show and of course, with Melissa and this time she brought her awesome daughter Morgan. 

It was a fantastic show and the last one of this tour so they brought it! Now I know they just released their 13th album “Steady” but I am partial to the throwbacks and I will plug some in here below! 

Show your friends, your mom and your kids… these guys are a win for all! 

As always, take care of yourself! Love, Carrie Danger
