Just got home from the concert, and I must say, one of the best I've been to! Good sound, good times all around, hope ya come back soon!
Wow! The show was awesome... my ears are still ringing. I have to say, that this was probably one of the best Sloan shows I've seen yet (except that I had a tall guy in front of me). The energy was great, and The Lines You Amend was as amazing as always. I sure hope the lasagna eaters are die hard fans now. The best part was how the guys stuck around after the show to hang out and chat it up. It sure was Action Pact!
What an amazing show! The guys are so great on stage and off. The quality of sound was awesome... and I couldn't believe that Chris actually did a backwards sommersault while playing! Thanks for the autograph and picture Chris!
Last night was AMAZING! To get out of the car after an 11 hour drive from Kingston and arrive at my friend Ashley's only to discover Chris and Andrew of SLOAN (!!!!) watching the simpsons and eating brownies in her livingroom. YEAH! highlight of my life...
And as far as the show went...sooooo GREAT! The venue was awesome and I hope they'll be back very soooooon! I'm sure dinner will be provided again... thanks guys! you're awesome!
Sloan you guys were amazing and how could we forget Cuff the Duke, also wicked. Thanks so much Chris and Andrew for walking in the freezing cold on Pim Street with me, to bad you didn't eat dinner at my house, none the less it was still really fun--not an everyday occurance. Anyways the show was amazing and I can't wait to check out another one soon. Oh and I love my new sloan vinyl and underwear.. thanks again to the cuff the duke guys..paul I wont spend your dollar..!
Amazing show fellas! Fourth time seeing you, and it just keeps getting better. The new material sounds great live, and the energy! I don't know how you do it, but keep it up. Oh, "I Was Wrong" definitely needs to be a single! It's a great tune, and it just digs in your brain and sticks there!
The Sloan show on friday night was absolutely fantastic. So much talent goes into every song and the overall atmosphere in our capus bar was lifted by the upbeat style of music. Action Pact is a great albumn and I have and will continue to reccomend it to any rock fans. I saw Sloan at Edgefest a month ago and it was great as well, but seeing them in a small venue like a campus bar was the best way to experience it.
It was wild and crazy! It was also my second Sloan show and I enjoyed this more than the previous (State Theater in Detroit), probably because this time I was 20 feet away from them. Cuff the Duke was good, too. Good times.
Great show. You guys are awesome live and you play together so well. I like your shoes.... they must be 25 years old. Anywho,
I'll come see you next time your in the soo for sure.
Thanks
Awesome show! Thanks to Chris for announcing our (Minus John) gig the next night! Can't wait to see them again... hey Marty!
HI GUYS!!!!
I was at last night's 'intimate' show in Sault Ste. Marie and I just wanted to say thank you so much for playing such a small venue! I was right up there in front (just behind all the underage girls *wink*) and it was incredible to feel such a part of the show! You guys rocked and I thouroughly enjoyed the experience! (Can you come back next weekend??)
Still can't stop smilin'...

Well, this sold out show rocked my world.
It was just unreal seeing these guys so close, getting a hand shake from Chris Murphy, and having a brief, but awesome talk with Jay!!
Sloan, please come back.
I never wanted it to end!!!!
This was my 4th sloan show, and it was great. People need to realize that Sloan is one of the hardest working bands in the world and that Chris Murphy has the best eyeware around. They really put together a great setlist, I enjoyed hearing Andrew sing out maybe my favorite sloan song "people of the sky". The Murph rocked out hard on the drums really showing sloans versitility, and kick ass rock talent. Jay was playing the strings hard even breaking a string on "the lines you amend" THATS ROCK. Patrick was also breaking strings in the early stages of the show and was belting out the words to all of the tunes. One thing needs to be said in this review....SLOOOOOOOOOAN
anyone disappointed by the _pretty together_ tour (if that's even possible!) will not want to miss the energy of the _action pact_ wicawesome tour. sloan's received a lot of hype since the great performance at this year's edgefest and it's well deserved. the boys were in fine form at the u of g. i've been a die-hard fan since "smeared" and sloan's appeal hasn't wavered. you guys are still generating new fans! good on yeh! sloan fans: audience participation is key - do your research and buy the new one. and guys, when can we expect a release of the b-sides? the japan imports are great, but hey, we are students! don't make us download - it's bad for the soul....
Hey! I went to the show at The Cage and it was amazing! *i still have the damaged ear drum to prove it* ;o) I've seen Sloan many times at larger venues so it was great to get a closer look and listen to one of my favourite bands! Its fun to see the little details on stage*ie. Chris and his hillarious facial gestures to audience members, and my favourite...Patrick in his little argyle sweater :oD * Great show all around! Just a quick question, hopefully someone can answer for me...what was the name of the guest band that played with Sloan at The Cage? Thanks so much!
Katie :o)
Saw Sloan at mac last night and needless to say they didnt dissapoint. They were full of energy in the small atmosphere, playing new tunes and the old classics. If ya have the chance to see sloan go, its definatly worth it.
cheers
I gotta say, sloan is my favorite band so maybe my opinion is a little biased. but this was the best concert I've ever been to.
They rocked the house for an hour and a half.
My only complaint is that I was the only person around that I could see singing any of the songs off the new album (besides rest of my life).
Great work guys, and great album.
