""It was pretty wonderful," says drummer/vocalist Stephanie D'Entremont. "Julie Doiron is one of my favourite songwriters/drummers/singers and people. Her partner in crime, Dick Morello, who was playing drums with her on tour, is also amazing.
"It's really cool to just be in her presence because Julie is so maternal, I find. This was the first time we'd ever been out in western Canada. It was kind of scary, but as long as Julie was there, everything was OK… She always knows how to get to all the vegan restaurants in the area.""
Now (via Radio 3) it turns out that Julie's band Eric's Trip is getting ready for a bit of a micro tour that goes like this:
Tue June 3 - The Mod Club, Toronto Mon July 7 - The Warehouse, Calgary Tue July 8 - Starlite Room, Edmonton Thu July 10 - Plaza Club, Vancouver Fri July 11 - Sugar, Victoria Sat July 12 - Marymoor Park, Redmond WA
And the Superfantastics are getting ready for a bit of a tour themselves like so:
June 5 Halifax, NS @ Gus' Pub w/Slate Pacific and Quiet Parade June 6 Charlottetown, PEI @ Lyons House w/BA Johnston, The Stolen Minks and The Barnkats (all ages, 7 p.m.) June 6 Charlottetown, PEI @ Baba's Lounge House w/BA Johnston, The Stolen Minks and The Barnkats (10 p.m.) June 7 Fredericton, NB @ The Capitol Bar June 10 Montreal, QC @ Crobar w/The Ease Down June 11 Ottawa, ON @ Avant Garde June 12 Peterborough, ON @ The Montreal House w/The Burning Hell and Shotgun Jimmie June 13 Toronto, ON @ Criminal Records w/Mardeen, Old Man Luedecke, Shotgun Jimmie and Calm Down It's Monday (5 p.m.) June 13 Toronto, ON @ Clinton's (NXNE) June 15 Toronto, ON @ Rancho Relaxo July 26 Antigonish, NS @ Evolve Festival
Now pay special attention to that Criminal Records show on June 13...if you'll notice they're playing with Calm Down It's Monday - I have to point this out because that too is Julie Doiron (and Dick Morello).
