weezy Posted November 22, 2002 Report Share Posted November 22, 2002 ...IS BACK! They just announced a show Jan. 25th at the Commodore in Vancouver! I've seen them many times over the years, but never at such a large, posh venue. Anyone else in Vancouver excited about this ? *crickets chirping* damn. I should make a few other western usernames and have pretend conversations with them. yes, that's the sane thing to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Musicface Posted November 22, 2002 Report Share Posted November 22, 2002 Nice! Wow, it's been a LONG time since I've heard anything about those guys. Any signs of them coming out Ontario-way? - Mr. M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CyberHippie Posted November 22, 2002 Report Share Posted November 22, 2002 Interesting, I saw them probably like ten years ago at the Town Pump. They were a lot of fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hamilton Posted November 22, 2002 Report Share Posted November 22, 2002 She Stole My Beer used to come out and play in Ontario a couple of times a year back in the early nineties - I remember they were a lot of fun. A question for you west-coasters: What ever happened to People Playing Music? They were a great band - are they still around, or have they broken up? Brian.

Booche Posted November 22, 2002 Report Share Posted November 22, 2002 We saw them at AJ's in Kingston way back when. When? I have no idea........Mike put a sticker of theirs on his guitar when he was messed after the gig. The Wackamole tried his darndest to talk him out of it. Wack bought a cd, thats all I remember, aside from really digging them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weezy Posted November 22, 2002 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2002 The last thing I remember about SSMB is them making the album "Mule" - then getting fucked by the record company, so they broke-up to get out of the recording contract. (some kind of loophole, I guess...) Then I saw "Sweaty Cheddar" for NYE 1999-2000 in Whistler - an offshoot of the Beer (w/ the 4 foot tall guitarist dude) Then in 2001 (I think) they did a couple shows in Vancouver - but that was it. I've heard they've been living in Whistler like hermits - apparantly, one of them is very reclusive. freaks. I can't wait to see them again!
