Jay Funk Dawg Posted July 6, 2014 Report Share Posted July 6, 2014 The band is doing a farewell tour of Atlantic Canada this week with their final show at Evolve Festival July 11-13th in Antigonish, NS. Here's a recent live recording showing the band didn't miss a beat with their 3 year off the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fluffhead77 Posted July 30, 2014 Report Share Posted July 30, 2014 I guess, in short, what i'm getting at is, does anyone still give a fuck? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Funk Dawg Posted July 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2014 I had worked with the band over many years and I thought it was great to see the band back together. they split up over personal issues, so to see them patch up their differences and go back out on the road was good to close out their career on a positive note. The band really did have some great songs and put on a great show. I think if they would have worked the US market much harder in the early years they would have had some major success... they were a very original sounding band with each member a very strong musician... and together they were a powerhouse.There's also an emotional maybe introspective sound to their music, and having been a part of the Evovle Festival for 15 years, I do feel their music had a special impact to the audience at Evolve. I don't expect everyone to care, but for me these guys are my friends, former room-mates, collaborators... I gave a fu@k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hartamophone Posted July 31, 2014 Report Share Posted July 31, 2014 Thanks for posting this, Jay. Having been an undergrad student out east during the JSB's early-00s heyday (my first show of theirs was a Fly Jimmy Swift show in '99), these guys were *our* band. I was sad to see the bottom drop out so quickly, and agree that had they gone harder stateside - and pushed "Drive By" as means to get exposure and pay the bills - things could have gone differently.Regardless, I have great memories associated with this band, and was glad to see their run end with a dignified punctuation.
