NewRider Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 Saw them in Guelph a few years ago and enjoyed it. They were touring off their first album and I enjoyed their second record better so I'd say it's definitely worth checking out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bagochips Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 I just saw them at Barrymore's on Tuesday. They played to a 3/4 empty bar and ripped it up. It was turned up to 11 the whole time. We're talking vintage Motorhead level loudness. If you like your blues rock raw, ragged and downright dirty, you'll have a good time. Definitely worth the $15 they were asking.

AcidNintendoOrgan Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 Ear plugs a ,must (thank you Gordie...you hack/maniac).Saw Big Sugar a few years back and Pocket Dwellers opened. After P/D set they said this band gave them nothing. No stage space, back line etc.Pocket Dwellers blew them off the stage (although I cannot think of a band that they would not blow off the stage), and Gordie in particular was resentful and cruel. F*** Grady! Donate your $1 ticket that they deserve to a woman's shelter or food bank. It will be put to better use Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tribalstar Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 They are playing the same nite as DD and WTF at Starlight...obviously I am at the DD show...but man..why are the music gods setting such problems forth? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Wooly Mammoth Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 So, this topic isn't about Sanford and Son? Actually, didn't they give Grady his own show? IIRC it was pretty bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swan Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 I'm going tonight. I've seen them a handful of times. Last time they played in town they didn't have a lot of draw. They've reworked some of the Big Sugar material into a harder sound as opposed to the previous dub. Agreed that it is going to be loud and it is going to rock.

Niplit Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 Speaking of which, whatever happened to the Pocket Dwellers. One of the best acts around Canada, but they seem to have disappeared for the last year and a half. Are they done!??! Say it ain't so! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradm Posted March 8, 2008 Report Share Posted March 8, 2008 Speaking of which, whatever happened to the Pocket Dwellers. One of the best acts around Canada, but they seem to have disappeared for the last year and a half. Are they done!??! Say it ain't so!I saw them once or twice, most recently in January, 2006 (at Mavericks), but haven't heard much from or about them since then. Their webpage is still working, but in their blog, the most recent entry is from 2006-03-28.Aloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
