Dude, someone find Hugh this damn tape!

Thanks bro. This is like the reenk roink of canadian punk rock.

I will check my local and some more shops when I go home to STL to see my parents in a few weeks.

Thanks abunch. I have my doubts that anyone outside of the Toronto area has this, and most have probably misplaced or disposed of it.

I'm hoping SOMEONE has this gem. Someone maybe in the Toronto area? I've wanted it for years. I have never seen it come up. But I want it. BAD. It's their first demo release before they got signed. will pay in cash or vinyl (have a couple TMR boxes, etc-will post what I have later).

Have you suggested it to the Headstones as a possible PledgeMusic item to sell? Assuming there are copies left over. Probably limited and quite rich, but a possible option. It seems there is a dialogue option on their PledgeMusic page.

I did that very thing, actually. Hugh responded to a few of my questions/comments on Pledgemusic (even alluded to the fact I had some influence on the tracklist of Love & Fury when I brought up the idea of those old demos being re-recorded for that record). But I have yet to hear any response to any comment about the availability of the cassette itself, or the possibility of it being re-released. It might have something to do with it having been recorded with their first drummer and first bassist. He has no issue with people sharing those tracks online, however.

did you hear that Trent is sidelined for this run of shows because of an ongoing health condition? someone else is subbing in on guitar. Trent will be back they said, but too bad.

RICKFERD VAN DYK TO FILL IN FOR GUITARIST TRENT CARR

Due to an ongoing medical condition, which suddenly requires immediate treatment in and around our concert dates, Rickferd Van Dyk will be temporarily filling in for Trent.

Rest assured that Trent will be back better than ever, sooner rather than later.

Look forward to seeing everyone on the road.

I'd argue that as long as Hugh is there, you won't much notice. LOL

Have a few buddies in Regina looking for you.
If it is in Regina they will find it.
Hows your search going?
How did you discover these guys?
I remember listening to them sometimes in HighSchool but never really followed them after.

cool, thanks! my search is bringing up NADA. being that the band was not well known back then, and Canadian band ephemera that is 20 years old is nearly impossible to find.

I believe I heard their stuff on the radio from their first album. followed them ever since.
