Road Rock
30 hours riding in our 1990 Plymouth Voyager, here is an incomplete list of what we were listening to. Incomplete because I was sleeping or “zoning-out” for 1/3 of the trip and I have no idea what was going on. Vancouver and Victoria are really awesome to us every time, and we came back from this trip stoked on our future as a band.
Special thanks to Jarrett Samson and The Zoo Shop (!), Glenn Alderson, Tiemen Kuipers and his amazing Talk’s Cheap record store in Victoria, Chris Milne and his sick collection of Cambodian garage records and for letting us play on his CFUV show, as well as The Shrapnelles for killing it. Also, to Fraser Danklepuss for providing the best tour story of all time.
