Basher Posted March 29, 2005 Report Share Posted March 29, 2005 Smokestack is playing an aftershow for Panic in Detroit this Friday night. Anyone have any personal opinions of this band? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paan Posted March 29, 2005 Report Share Posted March 29, 2005 There have been 3 different occasions where I was going to see these guys, and for some reason could not make it... they seem to have pretty good reviews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarinGarage Posted March 29, 2005 Report Share Posted March 29, 2005 i'm going to the show too. i've only seen them a few times, but i've always enjoyed their shows. should be a good time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basher Posted March 29, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2005 Really when it comes down to it, for $5 how can you go wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradm Posted March 29, 2005 Report Share Posted March 29, 2005 Basher: check out this show, which is a multi-track recording of a club gig where they do some serious jamband covers (including "Timmy Tucker" by moe.). There are also other 2005 shows where they do some Steely Dan. I've seen them once (Sept. 2002, in Ottawa), and have been itching for them to come back. Aloha, Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AD Posted March 29, 2005 Report Share Posted March 29, 2005 I love how there is a Smokestack sticker on one of the 'Butt Stop' ashtrays at some rest-stop on the West-bound 401 between Ottawa and Toronto. That always makes me laugh. And giggle. Anyone else notice this? It's been there for a couple years at least. AD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cully Posted March 29, 2005 Report Share Posted March 29, 2005 go to see this band...they are going to be huge!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark tonin Posted March 29, 2005 Report Share Posted March 29, 2005 A very good band, in my opinion ... all of the musicians in the band are solid, and the keyboard player is awesome! I've seen them 3 times and would definitely go again. Peace, Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouche Posted March 29, 2005 Report Share Posted March 29, 2005 hey yeah, we saw them at the CoZone in Toronto ... 2002? They were wicked! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Del Posted March 29, 2005 Report Share Posted March 29, 2005 I've seen them twice... I don't think they'll be huge, but for $5 you'll be more than happy you went. They do a sick Cripple Creek cover... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave-O Posted March 30, 2005 Report Share Posted March 30, 2005 Best $5 I ever spent back when Dekcuf was doing the Groove Thursdays, and I just noticed they use a quote from me in their bio. That being said, I know they went through a line-up change and the recent setlists seem to have a lot of covers, so who knows what's up with them these days.

Guest Low Roller Posted March 30, 2005 Report Share Posted March 30, 2005 I remember that show at Dekcuf (that was 2002? Ugh, time flies). 'Dem were good times. The keyboard player was a star. I haven't heard much from them since. End of sentence fragments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGoodRev Posted March 31, 2005 Report Share Posted March 31, 2005 Shainhouse brought these guys to the Hammer last year...wanted to make the show but couldn't, and then sort of forgot about them. The show apparently ended up on the Archive, here's a link. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
