Perhaps I am embellishing. Let's tune in and find out. CFOX radio is in Vancouver, or online at
Rock and Roll Radio! Bacon and Eggs?
Sloan (or at least some of them) will be breakfasting at CFOX radio tomorrow morning, May 5th. Apparently the fellows will be donning their chef's hats and cracking the eggs on breakfast for the studio audience.
"All Used Up" Rides Again!
Sloan have spent the day in a secret studio location filming another (!?) video for their latest single "All Used Up". This new video will feature Patrick's trusty white Mercedes, and at least one fake moustache. All other details are currently under wraps.
We are now considering treatments for a third video for "All Used Up". Let us know if you have any good ideas.

All Used Up Hits The Radio
All Used Up debuted this week as the #1 most added Canadian song in the country and the #2 most added rock song in the country.
Look for the video in the next few weeks.
Thanks to everyone who has requested the song. If you haven't heard it yet, email, phone, or send a postcard requesting it. Radio stations want to know you're listening.
Spring Warm-Up Dates
Sloan have just confirmed a trio of club dates around Southern Ontario. These club shows will be a great way to warm up for their upcoming tour of the Western US and Canada.
Having spent the long winter putting together the forthcoming Singles collection and DVD, the band is really looking forward to getting back in front of a live audience.
Fans in Waterloo, Barrie and Peterborough will be treated to an up-close and personal night of Sloan's singles and fan favorites, as well as a couple of new songs that have yet to be performed live.
Sloan will be joined by The Weekend for these three shows.
I am looking into some options for advance purchase of tickets for those traveling from out of town. I will let everybody know if I can get something worked out.
