July 19th

 

  On July 19th, 1997 my self and some buddies made the trip to the Camrose Exhibition Grounds for the Another Roadside Attraction Tour which was put on and headlined by The Tragically Hip. What a day of music this was, with such bands as Wilco, Sheryl Crow, Change Of Heart, Los Lobos, Ashley MacIsaac among others. Good fucking times!!!

16 Years Ago Today...July 19th

It was sixteen years ago today that I went to the Another Roadside Attraction Festival in Camrose, Alberta. On the bill for this show were the Tragically Hip, Wilco, Los Lobos, Sheryl Crow, Change Of Heart among others.

Also on this day a year ago, I saw Edmonton band The Slates play in Corner Brook, Newfoundland at a bar called the White Horse Lounge.

Concert Poster Of The Day Sept. 7th (Another Roadside Attraction)

Today's poster is from the traveling tour that the Tragically Hip use to put on in the 90's. It was called "Another Roadside Attraction" and was usually a really good line up. The show in 1997 that myself and a bunch of friends went to in Camrose,Alberta was one of the best line ups I saw for ARA. Have a look at the poster and what the line up was. Wilco,The Hip,Change Of Heart and Los Lobos all on the same bill,wow, how could you not have a good time. This was also the first time I saw Wilco in concert and have been a huge fan since.

Checkout the price of the ticket for this show. You couldn't see one of these bands for that price nowadays.
