An incredible show, and one we all never thought would happen. Though it was so long ago, i remember so much of it!
I even had the good fortune of hearing the sound check in the afternoon where I remember Patrick was particularly grumpy (something about disliking touring). The show was a dream, i think the Melbourne crowd freaked out about the instrument swapping and general energy the band put out. Memorable to say the least.

This was my second ever Slown show (oh pity me!) and I'm thrilled to have even seen them twice. Memories of the first show at Prince Of Wales Bandroom (For the release of BTB) were getting hazy and it was actually funny that my brother and I were discussing that 'if Sloan never tour again, we'll have to go to Canada to see them'. Lo and behold, a tour was announced shortly after... Thanks guys, you saved me a couple of thousand bux! I'll still come to Canada though one day...

This was also my first show and was worth the wait til past 11. It astounds and disturbs me as an American that the crowd was so sparse, but it was intensely loyal. Thanks for the setlist ... thought we heard False Alarm in there somewhere but maybe it was just my imagination. Canadians, don't worry about the hockey, you've got Sloan!
