Jay Funk Dawg Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 www.myspace.com/jackfruit www.jackfruitmusic.com These guys want to come to Toronto.. but I'm unsure if anyone would want to see 'em... can you guys have a listen and let me know if you'd be interested in seeing them? You might recognize the bass player, he is Stephane from Blue Quarter. let me know your thoughts good and bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jayr Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 (edited) Kick ass. Also the vocalist and keyboard player are from the late band "Slow Nerve Action". They'll be in my neck of the woods on Nov. 14th. Can't wait. Edited October 18, 2006 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouche Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 I don't even think I need to listen to them. That's a great photo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nattyMatty Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 Im going to the Collingwood show if it doesn't get canceled. I listen to them a while back and they were extremely powerful. Then i just listen to them again about a weekago just to make sure that it wasn't a one time thing for my ear buds.hehehe.. I think that there going to Blow the roof off of collingwood, and Probably Toronto if they get to play there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StoneMtn Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 They will. Chris Berry is the ultimate frontman for any band (Slow Nerve Action, Duran Duran Duran, Jackfruit, and one-off shows along the way with others.) The band is so tight it is incredible.To me (and I know people will argue) they remind me of Mr. Bungle. Everyone needs to see this band, and they really deserve support.

p.p. Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 Of course you should book them. And it looks like "Duran Duran Duran" is opening for some of the Ontario shows, so you should try for them as well (it's mostly the same guys, but doing covers of Tenacious D and stuff).

boiler Posted October 19, 2006 Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 Jackfruit is an awesome band. You should drop everything you're doing and go see them in the town or city near you. I also believe that anyone with any sort of recording machines should bring their electronic gadgetry with them. I've just decided to blast their c.d. in my car during my 5:45 a.m. departure for work. That should wake me up....go see them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boiler Posted October 19, 2006 Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 Might I add that Stephane's bass playing plays a very predominate role in Jackfruit's sound. (If that matters to anyone). The vocals/lyrics are crazy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djmelbatoast Posted October 19, 2006 Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 These guys are awesome.And might I add that if you are unfamiliar with Slow Nerve Action that you remedy that immediately. They were one of the funniest, funkiest and filthiest bands I have ever had the pleasure of seeing. Astroglide is a personal favorite song of mine, as is the Chewin' vagine song.
