Any fans on here?
They’ve been around since 03’, but I’ve just recently gotten really into them. Saw them at Artpark a few weeks ago and they tore it up.

i haven’t heard anything from them in a long time, i didn’t know they were still around… maybe back in 04 or so was last i listened to them, oh and they did the icebowl didn’t they?
I like “Primetime” Sam Roberts :gotme:
I love Sam Roberts… well at least the few singles I have heard from him. I saw him at the square last year too.
I love With a Bullet, thats my favorite .
haha me too
I heart them. I have seen them 5 times so far. My fav song is Mind Flood, I love how they play it live. :tup:
That’s mine, too. I couldn’t find a video of it.
That song is so much better live. They played it at artpark and everyone went nuts.
They just came out with a new album this year. And yeah, he did a solo performance at the ice bowl which was effing awesome.
Such a fun song lol
"No one feels more alone than the children of a dying breed
You never feel at home when you’re just another mouth to feed
I wanna live in geological time
Because I’m still in my biological prime
If nobody listens, then who’s gonna hear?
If nobody listens, will we disappear?
You flip a man a quarter playing songs on his guitar
You’re on a street corner, feeling like a patron of the arts
And now the kids don’t know how to dance to rock and roll
I said the kids don’t know how to dance to rock and roll
If nobody listens, then who’s gonna hear?
If nobody listens, will we disappear?
I just don’t understand why the kids don’t know how to dance to rock and roll
I said the kids don’t know how to dance to rock and roll
They’re always on the phone and they always gotta have control
And now the kids don’t know how to dance to rock and roll
The golden years are under attack (we’re taking them back, we’re taking them back)
The golden years are under attack (we’re taking them back, we’re taking them back)
Looking for an original voice
But the beaten path leaves little choice
The melody that you thought you found
Reveals that she’s been sleeping around
We were apostles
They were the high priests
We lived the hustle
The keepers of the backbeat
We’re under pressure to reconcile
Our point of view with contemporary style
It used to be that the kids were the ones who knew how to get off
It was a yell from the swamp, now it’s only coming out as a cough
I can’t sell my songs so I’m gonna have to give them away
I can’t sell myself since my hair started turning to grey
If nobody listens, then who’s gonna hear?
If nobody listens, will we disappear?
I just don’t understand why the kids don’t know how to dance to rock and roll
I said the kids don’t know how to dance to rock and roll
The high priests are calling all disciples back to the fold
Because the kids don’t know how to dance to rock and roll"
My favorite canadian band and my favorite new band in the last 8 years. If you haven’t listened to him, give it a try, it’s just plain good music.
for your downloading pleasure, both Square shows & a few others…

+karma if we still had it.
love sam roberts. Seen em twice. Last was with sean (officerk) at artpark… was a great concert
fav songs have to be bridge to nowhere and love at the end of the world
yeah, Bridge to Nowhere is a great one too
awesome, been into them for a while but never made it to a show until last year at the square. Artpark was great this year.
we tried to record the artpark show, but there were issues due to the new album not being out yet or some crap-
Were all those videos taken by you?
nope, i just do audio
lol
Than and Sam (sam and than?) ftw
Anybody go to the town ballroom shows? I was at Thursdays…a bit short but a good show. I heard friday’s got cut short(er) as well?
