Michael Sadler leaves Saga

October 23, 2007 by Chris

I went to see Saga play for perhaps the very last time in Toronto with the original band members at Jeff Healey’s Roadhouse, Oct 6th. Rick and I went to the show and I promised him a show that he would never forget and Saga certainly held up their part of the deal!

As you know I am a huge Saga fan from way back in the day and it was hard to see the front man for Canada’s best progressive rock band leave the nest. I respect his way in which he left the band and I wish him all the best in his future endeavors.

Michael is first and foremost a true gentleman. When you talk to him in person he is quite polite and you can tell that he is actually listening to everything that you say to him.

His album Clear should be a great album to hear when I pick it up next week. Here is a listing of the locations in Canada where you can find one.

So best of luck Mr Michael Sadler with your new journey and thank for all the great memories!

Truly, keep on Jammin’

How 4 Grand turned into $4M

October 2, 2007 by Chris

This is a make you feel good story that i came across while reading the Toronto Star the other day.

An 60 yr. old Elmira, just outside of Toronto, man went to see how his Lotto Super 7 ticket did and found out that he won $4000.00! Now that is a great story but it then turns out that the clerk at the store missed a few zero’s. You know how he found out, after mailing in the lucky ticket they called him back and asked him if he wanted to pick up the $4M’s in person. Yep, that’s right!

check out the full story in this link.

Keep on Jammin’

(or should I say playing!)

Just came back from our photo shoot

September 29, 2007 by Chris

We just got in the door and the pictures went great! We were worried that the pics that we got were horrific but it turned out they were just fine.

While we waited for our pics to develop, we had a light refreshing beverage at a bar called “Gabby’s” on The Danforth. I don’t know if you have one in your neighbourhood, but ours is great. The beers are reasonably priced and the tar benders, I mean bartenders are a laugh a minute!

Just thought I’d write about.

Keep on Jammin’
